The Miller 16531 Heavy-Duty Flowmeter is a premium gas regulation device engineered for professional industrial environments. Designed to manage the flow of Argon, Carbon Dioxide (CO2), and Helium, this unit is an essential component for facilities requiring precise gas delivery at an inlet pressure of 30 PSIG. Whether integrated into a centralized pipeline system or attached to individual regulators, the 16531 delivers consistent performance that facility managers and gas technicians can rely on.
In industrial settings, equipment durability is paramount. The Miller 16531 addresses this with a robust construction featuring a shatter-resistant polycarbonate resin flow tube. Unlike glass tubes that are prone to breakage upon impact, this polycarbonate material withstands the rigors of daily use. Furthermore, this specific model includes a rugged aluminum housing that wraps around the tube, offering unobstructed viewing of the flow rate while providing a physical barrier against accidental knocks and drops. This dual-layer protection ensures a long service life and reduces maintenance downtime.
Accuracy in gas measurement is critical for cost control and process integrity. Standard flowmeters often suffer from reading errors when the indicating ball floats off-center within the tube, leading to excessive gas consumption. The Miller 16531 features an exclusive self-centering ball guide mechanism. This design keeps the ball strictly centered within the flow stream, ensuring that the reading on the scale matches the actual gas output within 5%. This feature is particularly beneficial in pipeline installations where perfect vertical alignment may be difficult to maintain.
The unit comes equipped with a standard 1/4-inch FNPT connection, making it compatible with a wide range of industrial fittings and regulators. The extra-long flow tube features expanded scales printed against a high-visibility green background, allowing operators to read flow rates quickly and accurately, even in low-light conditions. By choosing the Miller 16531, industrial gas suppliers and users invest in a device that combines safety, precision, and rugged reliability.
