DESCRIPTION
The Brooks® Ar-MiteTM is a reliable, low flow metal tube
flowmeter with 316L stainless steel wetted parts. The
magnetically coupled indicator provides a highly reliable
method of indication. The reed switch alarm uses a
unique two sensor design, eliminating the need for
"biased" reed switches which can affect meter
performance. This model is a practical and economical
approach to low flow rate indication for high pressure
and difficult to handle fluids.
