Kofloc Model RK1100 Simplified Flexible Flow Meter

The Kofloc Model RK1100 Simplified Flexible Flow Meter is an versatile, economical variable area flow meter designed for general industrial and laboratory applications. Its “Flexible” designation refers to its unique modular construction, which allows the glass tube and scale to be easily removed or replaced without disturbing the main piping.

By combining a simple, robust design with an integrated needle valve, the RK1100 offers a cost-effective solution for users who need Kofloc’s precision without the complexity of high-end analytical models.

Description

The Kofloc Model RK1100 Simplified Flexible Flow Meter is engineered to prioritize ease of use and long-term serviceability. In many industrial settings, flow meters can become obscured by residue or damaged over time; the RK1100 addresses this by allowing the internal flow tube assembly to be swapped out quickly, significantly reducing downtime.

Despite its simplified design, the RK1100 does not compromise on build quality. It features a high-visibility borosilicate glass tube and a dedicated needle valve for manual flow regulation. The body is available in various materials to ensure compatibility with Air, Nitrogen, and Water. Its compact, lightweight frame makes it ideal for panel mounting or installation in tight spaces where larger meters would be impractical.
