The OMEGA® FL-1700 and
FL-1800 glass tube rotameters
are similar in design to the FL-1300
and FL-1400 series units shown in
this section, except that these units
are designed for use with corrosive
fluids. Fluid contact is limited to
the glass tube and float, PVDF
end fittings, FKM O-Rings and
tube packing, and the PTFE float
stops. No stainless steel wetted
parts are employed.
These units are also available with
an optional integral needle control
valve (Note: the valve has 316 SS
wetted parts). Also available,
FL-1900 series rotameters offer
stainless steel construction with
a 65 mm (2.6") flow tube at an
economical price. Visit omega.com/
fl1900 for specifications.
