Enhanced Calibration Boost Flow-Meter Accuracy

March 16, 2015

Next-generation variable-area flow meters from AW-Lake offer greater accuracy thanks to an improved calibration process. The new process uses an integrated laser engraving system to deliver precise scale locations and increments, directly tied to calibration points on each meter. The calibration process streamlines the production process while improving meter accuracy to 2% of full scale over the full flow range.
