Wedge Type Flow Meters
Wedge flow meters are designed for highly viscous, slurry-type, or contaminated line fluid applications, including difficult-to-meter, air-entrained liquids, as well as particulate-entrained, high viscosity, or slurry solutions.
Examples of these applications include: raw sewage, sludge, tar sands, pulp mash, cement, liquid asphalt, and molten sulfur.
