Milltronics Millflo Solids Flowmeter

The Milltronics Millflo solids flowmeter is a low to medium-capacity flowmeter for
various product sizes, densities, and fluidities in restricted spaces. This low-cost compact
unit improves processing, increases operating efficiency, and helps provide significant
cost savings.
Operating with a microprocessor-based integrator package, the Millflo provides a display
of flowrate, totalized flow, and alarms. Outputs are 0/4 to 20 mA proportional to rate and
open collector output for remote totalization.
Dry bulk solids enter the flowguide producing a mechanical deflections as they strike the
flowmeter sensing plate before continuing through the process unhindered. A strain
gauge loadcell converts the horizontal force of the deflection into an electrical signal. The
integrator processes this into a display of flowrate and integrated total weight. The
process is immune to the effect of product buildup as only horizontal force is measured.
The Millflo features easy installation into standard pipe sizes, simple operation, and fast
and accurate flow response.
The Millflo is an accurate and repeatable force sensor and its performance depends on
the consistency of the material flow into the flowmeter and the quality of the installation.

The Manual

This manual covers the installation, operation, and maintenance of the Milltronics Millflo
solids flowmeter.
Please refer to this manual for proper installation and operation of any component of the
system to which the Millflo is applied. Adhering to the installation and operating
procedures will ensure a quick and trouble free installation and allows for the maximum
accuracy and reliability of your system. Because the Millflo is used in conjunction with an
integrator, refer to the integrator's manual also.
