Description
Flow meter Petro, calibratable is an electronic throughput counter for liquid flow measurement with cumulative total memory and user calibration capability. The instrument is uncalibrated (ungeeicht), making it suitable for laboratory and industrial fluid-handling tasks where flexible recalibration is preferred over sealed legal metrology. Supplied as 1 piece with a net weight of 0,467 kg, the compact Petro unit supports small-stream metering and volumetric monitoring in process and sample workflows. Typical use spans flow measurement, small flow metering and volumetric determination in technical laboratories. From manufacturer Bürkle, the device combines an electronic readout with a sum totaliser so operators can track cumulative volume while adjusting calibration parameters as required. Dual-use marking is negative, supporting straightforward laboratory deployment. The design addresses routine metering needs where an electronic counter with calibration options improves day-to-day reproducibility without a legally verified sealed meter. It is a practical choice for environments that require an adjustable flow counter for petrochemical or general liquid applications.

Questions about Volume readout Petro, calibrateable
What is this article?
Volume readout Petro, calibrateable is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Bürkle for laboratory use. It sits in Drum, barrel & transfer pumps, inside Pumps, vacuum & evaporation, in Lab instruments.
A drum or barrel pump transfers tens of litres from a can that is too heavy to pour. Hand and electric drives differ. The tube material, stainless steel or plastic, has to survive the liquid. It is a transfer tool, not a metering pipette.
A vacuum pump lowers the pressure above a liquid so it boils at a lower temperature. That is the point of a rotary evaporator: solvent leaves a sample without cooking it. A diaphragm pump or a rotary-vane pump is chosen by the vacuum it reaches and by whether solvent vapour will destroy it. A peristaltic pump moves liquid by squeezing a tube, so the liquid touches only the tube. A barrel pump transfers a larger volume from a drum. The glassware on the evaporator is indexed under ISO laboratory glassware. Solvent identity is on PubChem.
