What is a Panel Mounting Acrylic Body Rotameter?

A Panel Mounting Acrylic Body Rotameter is a type of variable-area flowmeter designed to measure the flow rate of liquids or gases by utilizing a tapered acrylic tube and a float. The flow of the fluid inside the tube lifts the float to a position that is indicative of the flow rate. This particular design allows for the rotameter to be mounted directly onto a control panel or instrument panel, making it ideal for applications where space is limited or where visibility from a central location is necessary.

The transparent acrylic body provides a clear view of the flow, ensuring ease of use and efficient monitoring. The Panel Mounting Acrylic Body Rotameter is also durable and resistant to many chemicals, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

How Pitambara Engineering Panel Mounting Acrylic Body Rotameter Works

The Panel Mounting Acrylic Body Rotameter operates on the principle of variable-area flow measurement. Here’s how it functions:

• Fluid Flow:
  • Fluid enters the rotameter through the inlet and flows through the tapered acrylic tube. As the flow velocity increases, it lifts the float inside the tube.
• Float Movement:
  • The float rises to a position where the upward force from the flow of the fluid balances the downward gravitational force on the float. The position of the float corresponds directly to the flow rate, which can be read off the calibrated scale on the side of the tube.
• Panel Mounting:
  • The rotameter is mounted on a panel or control board, making it easy to read the flow rate from a central location without needing to approach the unit directly. This feature is ideal for systems that require real-time monitoring from a distance.
