Description
Flow Technology is a leading manufacturer specializing in high-precision turbine flowmeters designed for the industry’s most demanding applications. With decades of experience in sectors such as aerospace, automotive and cryogenic, their solutions offer extremely reliable and accurate flow measurement for a wide variety of liquids and clean gases.
Outstanding technical characteristics:
Flow Technology’s range of turbine flowmeters is distinguished by a set of high-precision engineering features that make them the reference solution for the most complex applications.
- Exceptional Accuracy and Linearity: Their main attribute is a measurement accuracy that can reach up to ±0.1% of the measured value. Thanks to an advanced hydrodynamic design of the rotor and internal components, they offer superior linearity over very wide flow ranges, with turndown ratios often exceeding 100:1. This ensures reliable measurements at both very low and very high flow rates.
- Robust and Customizable Design: The construction of these gauges is tailored to the specific requirements of each application. They are manufactured in a wide variety of materials, including 316 stainless steel, Titanium and other exotic alloys, to ensure compatibility with corrosive fluids or extreme temperatures. Bearing selection is equally critical, offering everything from precision ball bearings (ceramic or steel) for optimum performance, to high hardness plain bearings ideal for non-lubricating fluids or extending equipment life.
- Critical Applications Specialization: Flow Technology is recognized for its expertise in extreme environments. They are leaders in cryogenic measurement, providing stable and accurate measurements of liquefied gases such as LNG, nitrogen (LN2), oxygen (LOX) and hydrogen (LH2). They also have models designed to withstand very high pressures (up to 2,000 bar), making them ideal for hydraulic systems, aerospace component testing and oil and gas industry applications.
- Advanced Electronics and Sensing: Rotor speed is measured non-contact by magnetic or radio frequency (RF) pickups, which ensure a clean, interference-free signal. For applications requiring greater reliability or additional information, dual sensors can be installed to provide redundancy or the ability to detect flow direction. These sensors are complemented by signal conditioners and linearizers that further improve accuracy over the entire operating range.
