FloBar tubes contain no moving parts. Standard models are manufactured from stainless steel, though alternative material requirements are readily accommodated. Process connection options range from resealable compression fittings, through fixed flanges to valved hot tap variants, making installation a straightforward operation. Local indication or retransmission devices mate directly with the FloBar’s integral three-valve manifold. Call our Sales Team who will help you specify your requirement.
