READING THE MONITOR
Note the red reference line running 360° around the
white magnet follower. This line moves in direct
proportion to the movement of the internal orifice
disk. When fluid is flowing, the flow rate is read by
aligning the red reference line with the closest scale
graduation.
SPECIFIC GRAVITY OR DENSITY EFFECT
Standard water monitors are calibrated with water
and oil monitors are calibrated with .873 S.G. oil.
Flow indication will read high for heavier fluids and
low for lighter fluids. A correction factor for other
specific gravities can be established using the
following formulas.
For Water Monitors use:
Actual = Observed Reading x 1.0
S.G.
For Oil Monitors use:
Actual = Observed Reading x 0.873
S.G.
VISCOSITY EFFECT
The Series HF Flow Monitor incorporates a unique
floating sharp-edged orifice disk which provides
greater operating stability and accuracy over wide
ranging viscosities up to 500 SSU.
