LB–Series: Portable Liquid Flow Meters

LB-Series Portable Liquid Flow Meters measure liquid volumetric flow rates anywhere you need, making them ideal for on-the-go process calibration, verification, and validation.
  • Portable & durable. Built to be carried around, with a battery lifetime of up to 18 hours and drop-resistance.
  • Fast, multivariate data. Millisecond-response times immediately upon powering up, to display liquid flow, pressure, and temperature readings in real-time, in your choice of engineering units.
  • Optional Bluetooth. Bluetooth now available on portable devices for use with the Alicat Connect app.
