Datasheet

Hedland Water-based series (SG 1.0)

Technical features

Direct-reading variable-area (piston and cone) flow meter: install in any position, no flow straighteners needed
Linear scale on a 360° rotatable guard; relatively insensitive to shock and vibration
Good viscosity stability
Reverse-flow by-pass option lets fluid flow freely in the opposite direction
Test kit versions with glycerin-filled gauge and load valve for hydraulic troubleshooting
Stainless steel retaining ring and spring for corrosion resistance in water

Applications

Cooling water and process water flow
Water-glycol and HWCF (water/oil emulsion) hydraulic systems
Washdown and spray systems

Description

The Hedland water-based flow meter is a direct-reading variable-area meter calibrated for water and water/oil emulsions (SG 1.0). Like the petroleum version it reads to ±2% of full scale with ±1% repeatability, installs in any position without straight runs, and resists shock and vibration; retaining parts are stainless steel for wet service.

Aluminium, brass and stainless steel bodies are rated up to 414 bar, sizes run from ¼ to 3 in, and reverse-flow by-pass and test-kit options are available.

Argonmark Ltd supplies Hedland instruments across Bangladesh — Dhaka, Chattogram, Gazipur, Narayanganj and the gas fields, refineries, terminals and power plants beyond. Send us the model, range, process connection, output and any hazardous-area requirement, and we will confirm the right configuration, lead time and price.
