Versatility
combined with portability. Matheson's Flowmeter Kit is a user
friendly kit designed to fill your requirements for wide flow
ranges of many different gases. The kit contains a flowmeter
frame, four 150mm scaled TUBE CUBES™, three valves and a
flowmeter stand along with tools for changing the tubes and
valves. This allows you to measure ranges from 4 ccm to 50 lpm.
We provide calibration curves for air. Other gases available
upon request. |

NOTE: The tubes supplied have
150mm reference scales. Matheson provides calibration curves for air at
70ºF and 14.7 psia. Be sure to request calibration curves for the gases
you will be measuring.
Packaged in the cushioned
durable carrying case are the following:
- Flowmeter frame
- Four TUBE CUBES to cover the
entire range of flows that can be measured with a flowmeter of this
size
- A bench stand to enhance the
ease of use of the flowmeter
- Three control valves so that
precise control is maintained over the flow ranges which can be
measured
- Tools to facilitate the
assembly and disassembly of the various kit components
- An instruction manual which
makes this entire package very "user friendly"
