CENTRIFLOW LOW FLOW CFL: TYPE I METER

The CentriFlow CFL Meter is a bulk solids mass flow meter specially designed for very low flow rates that can be as low as 100 lb/hr. The CFL Type I, as with all other Type I Meters, is constructed primarily for use after feed devices that move material in a horizontal direction (belt conveyors or vibratory conveyors, for example). Unlike other models of the Type I Meter, the CFL meter typically includes a housing that shelters the Measurement Pan. The CFL Type I Meter is great for free-flowing products and is often used to measure additives, ensure proper ratios of mixtures being blended together, or for any application in which accurate flow measurement of low flow rates of material is important. The CFL is constructed entirely of Stainless Steel. As with the standard CentriFlow Meter, the CFL would typically require some sort of transition (pictured) if oriented in the In-Line flow configuration. This transition can either be supplied by Eastern Instruments, or by a third party as well.

The CentriFlow CFL Type I Meter, when installed in the In Line Orientation, is well suited for the flow measurement of low flows of bulkier products such as hay or wood chips, as well as other products such as plastic pellets, food additives, etc. In the In Line orientation, the CentriFlow CFL Meter is specifically designed to be installed directly after feed devices such as belts or vibratory conveyors so that product will flow off of the feed device, over a transition and through the CentriFlow Meter which will be tilted backwards at up to 20 degrees. The product will then, continue flowing in its original direction.
