They are available in models that provide basic visual flow or models with output for remote flow monitoring. Because these meters can be mounted in any direction, they work well for process applications that need a simple indication of water or other water-based liquids flowing. Just attach the indicator to vertical or horizontal piping.<\/p>\n<p>In-Line Flow Indicators for Liquids and Gases can be used with noncorrosive liquids and gases. Simply connect tubing to indicators via hose barb connections.<\/p>\n<p>Industrial Flow Indicators with Plastic Rotor feature integral wipers that clean the viewing area so you can observe the rotor without obstruction. The offending contaminants are then simply washed away by the flow. This process may be repeated as often as needed\u2014without downtime.<\/p>\n<p>Also, some paddle wheel flowmeters provide visual and remote flow indication via a see-through acrylic cover.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Looking for an inexpensive way to visually monitor flow?
