Flomec Chemical Flow Meter for precise volumetric flow measurement of clean liquids
The Flomec Medium Capacity Chemical Flowmeters provide precise volumetric flow measurements of a broad range of clean water-based products and aggressive chemicals and are also suitable for most fuels, fuel oils, and lubricating liquids.
Applications include batching, dosing, or packaging of various corrosive chemicals or as a more economical alternative to a complete 316 stainless steel meter for liquids such as Diesel Exhaust Fluid (AdBlue).
Featuring:
- High accuracy & repeatability, direct reading flowmeter
- No requirement for flow conditioning ( straight pipe runs )
- Measures high & low viscosity liquids
- Quadrature pulse output option & bi-directional flow
- Integral 4-20mA output option
- Optional NMI Pattern Approval ( Australia only )
Typical Applications for the Flomec Chemical Flow Meter include dispensing or transfer of:
- Water (non-potable, demineralised, RO)
- Glycols / Anti-Freeze
- Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF / Adblue)
- Fertilizers
- Herbicides
- Insecticides
- Also suitable for many non-flammable fuels and oils

Meter Selection for the Flomec Chemical Flow Meter
Selecting the right meter for your application. Meters are selected based on flow range, pressure, temperature, material compatibility, and functionality.
PPS meters with standard ceramic rotor pins are suitable for applications where stainless steel is not suited or permitted.
FLOMEC® meter options include integral LCD totalisers, flow rate totalisers & batch controllers. These instruments provide monitoring & control outputs including 4~20mA, scaled pulse, alarms & batch control, and are also available with robust mechanical registers:
- BT LCD 5-digit reset, 8-digit cumulative totaliser.
- RT12 LCD 6-digit reset, cumulative totaliser & flow rate. Analogue and Pulse Outputs
- RT40 LCD 6-digit reset, cumulative totaliser & flow rate. Backlit Display
- EB LCD 6 digit 2 stage batcher & cumulative totaliser.
- M / V* = Mechanical registers ( see model numbering )
(Instruments are also available for remote mounting and with I.S. approvals)
