This firm now offers a new range of insertion flowmeters for applications where installation and removal from the pipeline without interruption to flow is more important than extreme accuracy. The Series 5000 turbine flowmeters (photo) are simple to install and remove, and are particularly suitable for large pipelines (4-in. dia. and upwards) where the cost of inline meters can be prohibitive. The flowmeters can be fitted with different, interchangeable rotor assemblies and are available with a wide range of electronic signal conditioning and readout devices. When used in conjunction with a ball valve, the metering head retracts fully into the housing, so it can be removed without interrupting flow. — Filton Process Control Engineering, Haywards Heath, U.K.
