Page 5: Section 1 Introduction
Section 1 Introduction Section 1: Introduction Description The Sho-Rate Flowmeters are variable area, glass tube, flow rate indicating meters. The basic elements are a tapered glass metering tube and a metering float. Features include quick and simple removal or installation of the tube and float while the meter remains in the process piping. -

Page 16: Section 3 Operation Operation
Section 3 Operation Section 3: Operation After the flowmeter has been installed in the flow system, it is ready for operation. An optional built-in needle control valve may be provided to control the flow through the flowmeter. These control valves are designed for fine control. -
Page 17: Section 4 Bistable Inductive Limit Switches
Section 4: Bistable Inductive Limit Switches Description The Brooks bistable limit switches are inductive ring initiators designed to be slipped over the glass tube. The switch operates as a coil that is inductively actuated by a 316 Stainless Steel or Carboloy ball float. The limit switches can be set to any desired limit values, by sliding the switch along the metering tube. -
Page 18: Power Supply/Relay Unit
The power supply/relay unit must fulfill NAMUR requirement, EN 50227 (DIN 19234). Maximum operating temperature The maximum fluid temperature for the Sho-Rate series with the inductive switches is 70°C. Recommended spares Model... -
Page 19: Alarm Settings
Section 5: Alarm Settings Alarm Settings The minimum setting distance of a switch and a fitting is 8 mm, and the minimum setting distance between 2 switches is approx. 30 mm, see figure 1. The standard alarm function is a bistable (latching) function, see figure 2. Once the ball float moves inside the inductive switch, the alarm function is activated, it remains activited, even if the float continues to move towards the alarm zone, thus leaving the inductive switch. -
Page 20: Section 6 Maintenance
Section 6 Maintenance Section 6: Maintenance Disassembly and Cleaning It is recommended the user periodically inspect the tube and float, and clean if necessary. Dirt or foreign materials adhering to the tube and float may cause inaccuracy and sticking of the float. The metering tube (Borosilicate glass) and related parts may be cleaned with any solvent which does not attack glass. -
Page 21: Reassembly Procedure
Section 6 Maintenance Reassembly Procedure 1. Use the reverse of Steps 1 through 5 of the disassembly procedure to reassemble the meter. 2. Prior to installing the needle control valve assembly make certain that the valve stem is turned completely counterclockwise (full open position) to prevent damage to the valve seat. -
