Economical Flow Meters Offer Accurate, Reliable Measurement



Racine, Wis. - Hedland EZ-View Flow Meters and in-line test kits offer customers a cost efficient way to maintain and improve the performance of oil, water and other fluid based systems, according to the Hedland(R) Flow Meter division of Racine Federated Inc.

Constructed of high impact resistant polysulfone and stainless steel for greater tolerance to pressure and temperature as well as chemical compatibility, these rugged flow meters are ideal for a wide range of liquid flow monitoring applications, including oil lubrication, solar systems, process control, chemical processing, hydraulics and more.

The meters also feature the unique Hedland variable-area metering design with a spring-retained movable piston. The linear movement of the piston provides a quick and easy visual reading against the graduated flow scale, mounted on the outer surface of the transparent meter body. The direct-reading EZ-View can be installed quickly, in any position from vertical to horizontal, without costly flow straighteners or other special plumbing requirements. Operating within ± 7% accuracy, the EZ-View is available in two piston designs: a standard cylindrical walled piston for maximum visibility with opaque liquids, or a ribbed piston design to accommodate liquids containing suspended particulate, up to 400 microns.

The EZ-View flow meters are available in 1/2", 3/4" and 1" NPT, or 3/4" and 1" sweat fittings. The standard meters offer flow ranges from .5 GPM to 28 GPM depending on the model. GPM, LPM and custom calibrations are available.

Hedland also offers a Flow-Alert Signal, which automatically triggers an alarm control circuit if the flow exceeds or drops below preset limits. This economical model is available for AC or DC power supply, and includes a Hirschmann type electrical connector. Easily installed in any position, the EZ-View with Flow-Alert offers repeatability within 1%.

The compact, self-contained EZ-View In-Line Test Kit offers all the benefits of the EZ-View flow meters in a convenient, low-cost diagnostic tool to check flow and pressure simultaneously. Easy to install, it measures flow rates from 0.5-28 GPM and operating pressures up to 160 PSI, and at temperatures up to 145 degrees Fahrenheit. The EZ-View Test Kit is ideal for water cooling and sprinkler systems, mobile chemical sprayers and other water and chemical distribution systems.

Hedland Flow Meters, a division of Racine Federated Inc., is a leading manufacturer of process flow technology for the manufacturing, machine tool, material handling, off-highway vehicle and refuse/recycling industries.
