In circuits connected in parallel, changes in flow may not be detected as the fluid flow is distributed among the other channels.

Flow-5’s external flowmeters monitor parallel circuits individually and detect changes early enough so that production quality is not adversely affected.

Flow-5s are easy to use and provide ultrasonic measurements with high accuracy.

Advantages of circuits connected in parallel

• greater overall flow ► faster temperature control
• smaller temperature difference between the main line and the return line
• better uniformity of temperature distribution
• fewer thermostat devices are needed (collecting identical temperature levels saves money and energy)

Performance
