The versatile new Type 8034 paddle-wheel flow-rate indicator is billed as the modern replacement for old-fashioned and outdated rotameters.

Commenting, Burkert Fluid Control Systems Industry Applications Manager Neil Saunders says the 8034 has all the features engineers need for today's advanced processing systems.

Advantages include vertical and horizontal mounting to simplify piping; a choice of materials to allow a wider range of fluids; an easy to read meter with remote option; large digital and analogue displays; maintenance-free so no down-time; suitable for coloured or nonclear liquids; no UV penetration reduces algae growth; negligible pressure drop; no interruption of flow for maintenance or later upgrades; reduced inventory as paddle wheel is the only variable and no glass to clean.

The 8034 is specially designed for use with neutral and slightly aggressive, solid-free liquids and is easy to fit, easy to read, easy to maintain and easy to stock.

It is available in compact, panel or wall mount versions and can measure flow rates up to 75m3/h (increasing to 500m3/h with insertion option).

Typical applications are widespread throughout the water treatment, pharmaceutical, food and beverage, medical and fine chemical industries.
