Glass rotameters are suitable for small and medium-sized enterprises that do not require a high level of automation. They are the primary products for flow measurement in such enterprises and also have advantages such as simple structure, convenient operation, and low cost.
Widely used in chemical, pharmaceutical, petroleum, light industry, and scientific research sectors, they are one of the most commonly applied flow measurement instruments in industrial flow measurement.
Correct Usage of Glass Rotameters:
1.Do not use the rotameter without the front cover. The glass tube is prone to bursting, and the cover serves a protective function.

2.When using the glass rotameter in winter, pay attention to thermal insulation. If it is not used at night, drain the residual liquid in the rotameter to prevent the glass tube from freezing and breaking.

3.When installing it on a pipeline, first check whether the upstream and downstream pipelines are aligned in a straight line. Misalignment will not only affect the measurement accuracy of the instrument but also damage the glass rotameter.

4.When opening the valve, be sure to open it slowly. If the estimated flow should make the float move, but the float does not rise upward, immediately stop opening the valve further. Gently tap the pipeline to allow the float to rise slowly.
5. First, check whether the glass tube inside the glass rotameter is intact, as the glass tube is highly susceptible to damage. Second, remove the fixings of the float, gently tilt the rotameter, and check if the float can slide up and down freely. If it cannot slide freely, gently vibrate the support plate. If it still cannot slide, professional assistance is required.
