The Matheson Instruments
TF-1000 and TF-1050 Series Flowmeters are corrosion resistant
Teflon® flowmeters which are interchangeable with most 65mm and
150mm scaled rotameters. There are no wetted metallic parts to leach
or interact with the fluids being measured. This minimizes the
possibility of particle generation and makes these flowmeters ideal
for use in high purity applications.
The TF-1000 and TF-1050
Series Flowmeters feature a lightweight, non-wetted, anodized
aluminum frame; a borosilicate glass flow tube with glass or
sapphire floats for maximum corrosion resistance and optical
clarity; and, a high purity metering valve for maximum flow
control. |
| Be sure
to request calibration data for the gas(es) you will be measuring.
The flow tubes are available with either 150 or 65mm reference
scales screened onto the glass. |
| The
glass metering tube is incorporated into Matheson's patented Tube
Cube®. The "cube," a unitized tube holder, aligns the tube
quickly and easily for simple tube installation or replacement. The
Tube Cube provides protection during handling, reducing chipped tube
ends, broken tubes and misalignment. The 1.5X scale magnification
lens allows for an easier, more accurate reading. Kalrez® seals are
standard to assure a positive sealing
