Hedland HP602A-002-F1 Flow Meter
The Hedland flow meter is a variable area (rotameter) instrument. A precision machined sharp orifice plate is located within the piston assembly and forms an annular opening with the corrugated metering cone. The piston assembly carries a cylindrical PPS/ceramic magnet which is magnetically coupled to an external flow indicator which moves precisely in direct response to piston movement. A calibrated spring reverses forward flow. This spring reduces viscosity sensitivity and allows the flow meter to be used in any position, including inverted.
