Variable Area Flowmeters offer HART protocol option.
Press Release Summary:
Designed to perform in challenging lubrication environments, Variable Area Vane and Piston Style Flowmeters come in 12 sizes with pressures up to 2,000 psi for flows up to 500 gpm. HART digital communication signal is superimposed on top of 4–20 mA standard analog signal, which provides additional digital information to controller. Optional mechanical switch is available to back up transmitted signal. Meters mount in-line and in any orientation, with no straight pipe runs required.

Universal Flow Monitors' Variable Area Flowmeters Upgraded
HART Protocol and Mechanical Switch Back Up Options Multiply Reliability and /Safety
Universal Flow Monitors, Inc. now offers a HART protocol option on all of its variable area and piston style flowmeters designed to perform in challenging lubrication environments. These meters are optimized for specific lubrication fluids. There is an additional option of a mechanical switch to back up the transmitted signal.
HART is a digital communication signal superimposed on top of the 4–20 mA standard analog signal which provides additional digital information to the controller. It is one of the most popular industrial protocols. The UFM website aids customers in choosing a flowmeter specific to their needs. Product specification choices are available for units of measurement, maximum flow rate, pipe size and pressure.
The HART option is offered on all variable area vane and piston style flowmeters. These simple low maintenance meters come in 12 sizes and go up to 2000 PSI pressure for flow ranging up to 500 GPM. They have CSA and CE certifications. They are easy to install, operate and maintain. They mount in-line and in any orientation, with no straight pipe runs required.Â
Universal Flow Monitors, Inc., located in Hazel Park, Michigan, has manufactured flowmeters for a variety of industries for more than 40 years. The company can be reached at (248) 542-9635, by email at ufm@flowmeters.com or through the website at www.flowmeters.com.
