Kirchner & Tochter Flap Flow Meter KLA Flapper type

Flap Flowmeter KLA

SKU: KLA Flap

Manufacturer: Kirchner & Tochter

The KLA Flowmeter uses a flap which is deflected by the flow of the medium. The deflection angle is a direct indication of the flow through the pipe. The flap is gravity-loaded, thus the device can be used for the flow directions left to right, right to left and bottom to top.

In the variant KLA-GS the medium be measured is directly visible through a glass in the flow indication unit.
