BAMO RA65/FA65’s measuring principle is that of the variable area flowmeter, the float is moved by the fluid inside a calibrated conical glass tube. The borosilicate glass conical tube is inside a steel case with a transparent reading window.
Versions:
- RA65: Fittings: Unions, BSP-F from ¼” up to 3”
- FA65: Flanges from ND10 up to ND65
- RA/FA65-MSK1: With bistable contact N.C.
- RA/FA65-MSK2: With bistable contact N.O.
- RA/FA65-MSKW: With bistable changeover contact
- RA/FA65-EM: With analogue output 4-20 mA
- RA/FA65-Ex: Explosion proof ATEX version
Limit switches: These flowmeters can be equipped with a magnetic float and Reed contacts, trigger points adjustable over the entire measuring range.
Analogue output 4-20 mA or 0-10 V: The transmitter is connected to a Hall effect linear signal ruler. The analogue signal is the image of the float position. The transmitter is connected via an M12 connector. This output is useful for applications using a PLC. The device is compact with a high level of repeatability.
