Information provided is intended to serve as a guide in helping select Varea-Meter

^®

flowmeters for specific flow-metering applications. Guidance for materials of construction is found in the chemical compatibility table. This guidance provides what we believe to be a suitable and economical choice of materials for each chemical listed.

All guidance is based on a service temperature of 70° F. Any variation in temperature, concentration, or purity may radically alter the corrosive activity of the chemical.

Listed at the beginning of this catalog are some commonly used chemicals that, because of their inherent properties, are considered problem fluids. Consider the special information in the problem fluids section below before selecting flowmeter materials for any liquid. If a particular meter-type is not listed under a chemical, that type meter should not be used with that chemical.

WARNING: Do not use Glass-Tube meters for fluids that are toxic, hazardous, or that attack glass.

This publication contains a listing of the liquids and gases most frequently metered in chemical processes. The type of meter with materials of construction best suited for that service can be identified. If your gas or liquid does not appear, ask us. If our section on “Problem Fluids” or the notes on certain chemicals do not give you a clear picture, ask us. Write (USFilter’s Wallace

& Tiernan Products, 1901 West Garden Road, Vineland, NJ 08360) or call (856:507-

9000). We’ll see that you get an answer.

Tube and PVC-Tube Varea-Meters are satisfactory for most hydrofluoric acid applications. NOTE: When using a PVC- Tube Varea-Meter, a Hastelloy C metering disc should be used instead of the standard Tantalum, which is attacked by fluorine compounds.

PHOTO-PROCESSING FLUIDS This group includes many different solutions. Some attack common metals and become contaminated. Type 316 stainless steel is compatible with most photo-processing solutions, except ferricyanide bleach for which Hastelloy C must be used. PVC meters or Glass- Tube Varea-Meters with PVC or KYNAR

^®

end fittings may also be considered as an alternative to 316 SS meters for common photo solutions.

SODIUM HYDROXIDE (NaOH), OTHER CAUSTICS Sodium hydroxide and other caustics attack glass, especially at elevated temperatures and/or concentrations about 20%. Metal-Tube Varea-Meters are recommended for this service. Do not use Glass-Tube meters for this service.

should be specified.

SULFURIC ACID (H

) Material requirements for sulfuric acid vary with concentration, temperature, and impurities. The interrelationship of these three variables is complex and makes reliable material selection difficult. Metal- Tube and PVC Varea-Meters are suitable for H

SO

service under certain conditions. Glass-Tube Varea-Meters may be materially suitable but there are hazards in the event of glass tube breakage. Do not use Glass-Tube meters for sulfuric acid service.

NOTE: As mentioned in the introduction, all guidance is based on a service temperature of 70° F. Variations in temperature, concentration, or amounts of impurities may radically change corrosive effects. Guidance is based on material compatibility only.

Metal-Tube Varea-Meters are recommended for toxic and hazardous materials. Do not use Glass-Tube meters for fluids that are toxic or hazardous, or that attack glass.

form will attack brass. Use only steel or stainless steel meters. PVC meters may be used for dry NH

₃

gas service.

CHLORINE Dry (anhydrous) chlorine in liquid or gaseous form (less than 150 ppm water) can be handled by many common metals. In the presence of water or water vapor, however, chlorine forms hydrochloric acid (HCl). Hydrochloric acid will attack nearly all metals. Chlorine solutions (chlorine water) may be handled with a PVC-Tube Varea-Meter if desired (or Glass-Tube meter with PVC end fittings). Do not use a PVC-Tube Varea- Meter for chlorine gas service under pressure.

HYDROCHLORIC ACID (HCl) (MURIATIC ACID) All concentrations of hydrochloric acid will attack most common metals. PVC exhibits good resistance. Thus, PVC-Tube meters should be considered up to 140° F at 35%

concentration. Concentrated HCl to 72°

F may also be handled with a PVC-Tube

meter. Do not use Glass-Tube meters for

this service.

TO USE THIS SELECTION GUIDE... in the table below, note the materials of construction available for the meter you intend to use. On the following pages, find your fluid in the indicated column and check the material’s

compatibility against the meter’s material availability. If a particular meter is not compatible with your fluid, that meter should not be used for that service. Select an alternate meter until you find one that is suitable. Refer to the last page for the
