General Description
Flowmeter and switches type
VKG 6000, VKG 7000, and VKG 8000 fill
an important gap in the high viscosity
media measurement field. Using patented viscosity
compensation system, these instruments
are insensitive to viscosity and density
changes during operation. This
development in flow and measurement
control technology has resulted in an
extremely versatile instrument usable in
almost all possible applications.
