As an authorized AW-Lake distributor, you can be sure that we have the knowledge, skill and expertise that you are looking for when it comes to meeting your needs for AW-Lake variable area flow meters.
Lake Variable Area flow meters — often referred to as “rotameters” — measure the flow rate of a liquid or gas by relating the linear displacement of an internal “float” or sharp-edged orifice plate (Lake) to a corresponding flow rate. As the flow rate increases, the orifice area that the flow moves through also increases – thus, the term “Variable Area.” Variable Area meters either allow flow through a peripheral orifice formed between a tapered wall and a float as in the traditional rotameter, or an annular orifice and an internal tapered metering pin in the Lake Monitor. The attributes of the Lake Variable Area flow meter are a linear relationship between flow rate, pressure differential, and piston displacement. Flow rate is read on Variable Area meters by aligning the position of the piston/float to an adjacent calibrated scale.
Advantages of Variable Area Flow Meters
- Relative low cost and easy installation
- Robust and easy to maintain
- No need for auxiliary power
- Works with both liquids and gases
