Waukee Engineering M-9FT Flo-Meter Housing

The Waukee Engineering M-9FT Flo-Meter Housing is a robust, precision-engineered component designed for accurate measurement of gas flows in industrial applications such as heat treating furnaces, annealing processes, and gas mixing systems. This model is part of Waukee's line of float-type flow meters, which utilize a tapered tube and float mechanism to provide reliable readings of gas flow rates under specified pressure and temperature conditions. Key features include a durable aluminum housing with threaded connections for easy integration into piping systems, calibration for specific operating parameters (e.g., 8 PSIG at 70°F), and high visibility scale for on-site monitoring. Benefits include exceptional accuracy in low-to-medium flow ranges, resistance to corrosion in non-aggressive gas environments, and low maintenance requirements due to its simple mechanical design. Compared to digital flow meters, the M-9FT offers cost-effective reliability without the need for power sources, though it may lack advanced data logging capabilities. Drawbacks include sensitivity to pressure and temperature variations outside calibrated ranges, requiring recalibration for different conditions. Ideal for applications in manufacturing, metal processing, and laboratory settings where precise gas flow control is essential. This unit appears new based on visual inspection, with no signs of wear, scratches, or discoloration, and includes a calibration label dated approximately 2021.
