Variable Area and FlowStat Meters

Variable Area Meters Variable Area flow meters are a type of rotameter that measure oils, liquids or gases by relating linear displacement of an internal “float” or sharp-edged orifice plate to a corresponding flow rate. The variable area and paddle wheel flow meters from AW-Lake are used in industrial applications around the world. This includes lubrication systems and cooling systems, as well as pneumatic and hydraulic systems, process control systems, and even gas and chemical applications. State-of-the-Art Production Variable Area flow meters from AW-Lake have recently undergone a production re-design. Utilizing automated calibration software and a high-res vision system, our new proprietary calibration and scaling process records the unique flow profile of each meter during calibration. The integrated laser engraving system marks precise scale increments for a more accurate, custom-scaled meter.
