GENERAL DESCRIPTION


Flowmeter and switches type VKG 6000, VKG 7000, and VKG 8000 fill an important gap in the high viscosity media measurement field. Using patented viscosity compensation system, these instruments are insensitive to viscosity and density changes during operation. This development in flow and measurement control technology has resulted in an extremely versatile instrument usable in almost all possible applications.
