MT3600 Series Metal Tube Variable Area Flow Meters

Reliable, economical measurement and control for high flow rate purge applications.
Models 3601 / 3602

Reliable and affordable, MT3600 metal tube variable area flow meters satisfy the operational and reliability requirements for multiple industrial purge meter applications, such as metering coolants, pump seal fluids, lubricants under pressure and opaque fluids.

Featuring high-temperature and high-pressure ratings, MT3600 flow meters are designed to work safely under difficult and hazardous industrial environments. They are constructed of wetted parts made from industrial grade stainless steel, so they can be used with a wide range of fluids, and feature an integral flow valve and controller, enabling users to read and control the flow rate.
