- Corrosion-resistant thermoplastic connections; PVC or CPVC
- EPDM or FKM elastomers
- All metal parts in process are 100% Teflon coated to eliminate corrosion and contamination
- Made in USA
This design features a spring-loaded diaphragm and magnetic movement to measure the pressure drop across a fixed orifice. Flow rate is proportional to the square root of the resulting differential, and directly displayed on the dial as gallons per minute. The magnetic movement is isolated from the liquid, with no linkages or other mechanical parts prone to variations or failure. Overall accuracy is ±2% full scale ascending, with repeatability at ±1%. These gauges feature a 5:1 turndown ratio; dial starting mark is 20% of full scale. Maximum pressure rating is 100 PSI. Connections are FNPT. For other options, please contact factory.

Part Numbers:

Notes -- Body and Seal Materials: All part numbers shown with FKM (Viton) seals.
For EPDM seals, change first "V" to "EP". For example, DPFM050V-PV-10 becomes DPFM050EP-PV-10. Additional wetted materials include Teflon coated 302 stainless steel spring and Teflon coated ceramic magnet. 3½" Dial is Lexan case with tempered glass lens.
For alternate materials or other requirements, please contact our Technical Services team at 973-256-3000.
Pressure/Temperature Ratings:
Maximum temperature rating is 140ºF for PVC, 180ºF for CPVC. Maximum line pressure rating for DPFM is 100 PSI.
