General Model RAGG

Rotameter ®
Specifications

This type of Rotameter is designed for measurement of liquids

and gases. The conical glass metering tube has a free rotating
float. This float is mounted in a vertical pipeline with flow direction
upwards.

The flow is indicated by the top of the float and can be read from
the standard scale on the metering tube or a from connected
scale.

When the process conditions are changed the scale needs to be

replaced by a new one of which the values should be calculated.

FEATURES
● Large selection of measuring ranges
● Anti-static metering tubes for measurement of lower gas flow
● High accuracy by free rotating float even at low flow rates
● Low pressure loss
● Visual check of the medium
● Non-powered local indication
● Large selection of scales
● High corrosion resistance
● Exact scale calculation at changed process medium
according to VDE/VDI guidelines 3513 with the use of the
flow table (option /PT)

RECOMMENDATIONS FOR DETERMINING THE MODEL CODE

Please specify in the following order:
- Measuring range for water/liquids or measuring range for air/gas
- With or without optional limit switch

Select the desired measuring range from the appropriate flow table. Note the required float material for limit switches resp. the insertion
(last column) and determine the suffix code for the metering tube - float combination.
After the code for metering tube - length - diameter, to be found in the model code, is determined, and the selection “with valve” or “without
valve” is made, the model code can be completed.
