Kofloc Model RK1050 Purge Flowmeter

The Kofloc Model RK1050 Purge Flowmeter is a sophisticated variable area flowmeter designed for the precise measurement and control of small flow rates.

Description

The Kofloc Model RK1050 Purge Flowmeter is engineered for longevity and precision in demanding environments. It features a precision-machined tapered glass tube that provides excellent linearity across the flow scale. Its primary function is “purging”—the process of maintaining a steady, low-volume flow to keep sensitive instrument lines clear or to maintain an inert atmosphere in small chambers. One of the defining characteristics of the Kofloc Model RK1050 Purge Flowmeter is its user-friendly maintenance. The flow tube can be replaced or cleaned easily without the need for specialized tools, reducing downtime in critical processes. The integrated needle valve at the inlet allows for ultra-fine adjustment, ensuring that even the smallest flow requirements are met with accuracy. Whether you are using it for air, nitrogen, or water, the RK1050’s robust housing protects the glass from accidental damage while providing a professional, polished look to any instrument panel.

The natural environment is preserved through the balance of solids, liquids and gases that exist on the earth. However, human civilization has caused pollution that has greatly damaged our environment. The task of the present generation is to restore our environment to its natural healthy state. And this is also the greatest challenge for 21st century science and technology.

KOFLOC's corporate motto is "A Scientific Approach for Fluids." In other words, we create products that scientifically measure and control the balance of liquids and gases. We trust that through our work we are making a contribution to the regeneration of the environment and to the establishment of a prosperous society.
