ISCO 4230
Bubble Flow Meter
The ISCO 4230 determines flow rate with nothing but tubing inserted into the channel by measuring the pressure required to force air bubbles through the tubing to obtain a depth reading. This depth measurement is in turn used with the channel’s dimensions to allow the 4230 to accurately report flow rate. Our bubble flow meter rentals are available with multiple power options for sites with or without AC power. They also feature advanced datalogging, a built in printer, and can interface with various other probes for logging multiple parameters.
