Page 5: Applications
Heinrichs Messtechnik GmbH Applications The flow meter is suitable for the measurement of the flow of liquid and gaseous products in pipes. It displays the current flow in volume or mass per unit time. Applications: Measuring the flow of liquid and gaseous products in pipes as well as dosing, superimposing, monitoring, regulating and the controlling of them. -
Page 6: Operational Mode And System Design K12
Heinrichs Messtechnik GmbH Operational mode and system design K12 Float principle: The product flows vertically through the meter from the bottom to the top. The height of the float in the measuring tube is a measure of the flow quantity. The float is in equilibrium between the buoyant force of the flowing medium and the counteracting force of gravity on the float. -

Page 10: Conditions Of Use
Heinrichs Messtechnik GmbH Conditions of use The VDI/VDE guidelines must be observed. The devices can be used for: liquid products that are sufficiently free-flowing, are free of solids, do not bond or do not tend to settle. gases with linear flow behaviour and an adequate inlet pressure. V/N (optional differential pressure regulator) The minimum differential inlet and outlet pressures must amount to 350 mbar. -
Page 11: Mounting And Commissioning
Heinrichs Messtechnik GmbH 7.1.4 Mounting and commissioning When installing and commissioning the flowmeter, the following points must be observed: a) The variable-area flow meter must be installed perpendicularly (bottom-up direction of flow). b) Take special care to install glass-tube devices free from strain. c) The size of the product line to be connected must be identical to the size of the device connection. -
