The rotameter is the most popular variable area ow meter because of its low cost, simplicity, low pressure drop,
relatively wide rangeability and linear output.

Furthermore, it operates simply: in order to pass through the tapered tube, the uid ow raises the oat. The
higher the level of ow, the higher the oat is lifted. In liquid service, the oat rises due to a combination of the

The metering tube in a rotameter is installed vertically (Figure 2-15) and the small end is at the bottom. The uid
that is going to be measured enters at the bottom of the tube, passes upward around the oat, and exits the top. If
there is no ow, then the oat stays at the bottom. When uid enters, the metering oat begins to rise.

The uid ow rate and the annular area between the oat and the tube wall, and the moving of the oat up and
down are proportional. As the oat rises, the size of (/aboutus.aspx)

The feasible temperature limit for glass rotameters is 204 °C (400 °F), although operation at such high
temperatures reduces the operating pressure of the meter to a large extent. Overall, the relationship between the
operating temperature and pressure is linear.
