The Customer: Machine Builder - Aluminum Casting Machines

The Industry: Metals/Castings

The Application: Measuring cooling for aluminum castings

The Problem:

• The customer required a simple flowmeter to measure water or compressed air
• Required indication only or 4-20 mA transmitter only

The Solution:

• VKM flowmeter with special scale
• LPM water and MH3/HR compressed air
• Behaves like a DP meter for compressed air applications
• Behaves like a DP meter for compressed air applications
• Optional Flow Switch output

Why the Customer Picked VKM:

• The same meter used for both air and water cooling
• VKM has the option for a 4-20 mA required for some applications
• We were willing to test the scale for compressed air
