Description
The Lutz 0231-040 is a Flow Meter with Stainless Steel (1.4581/1.4571) housing.
Chemical-Compatible Flow Measurement
Lutz flow meters are designed for inline measurement of chemical fluids in drum pump and liquid handling systems. Housing and wetted materials are selected for compatibility with acids, alkalis, solvents, and oils.
Calibrated and Uncalibrated Versions
Factory-calibrated versions provide certified accuracy for dispensing, batching, and inventory management. Uncalibrated versions offer cost-effective flow indication for non-critical applications.
ATEX-Rated for Hazardous Areas
Explosion-protected versions are available for Zone 1 and Zone 2 classified installations where flammable fluids are handled — required by safety regulations for most solvent and fuel dispensing systems.
Direct Integration with Lutz Systems
Connection sizes and thread types are matched to standard Lutz pump tube and hose fittings — designed for direct integration into Lutz drum pump discharge lines without adapters.
