Flowmeister

We.Deliver.Trust

Flowmeister represents FlowMax® instruments, developed and manufactured by the German company MIB GmbH.

Key-area is the segment of Single Use (aseptic) applications in bio-pharmacy worldwide.

The second branche is high-tech OEM where we meet high demands for reliability in cooling-circuits.

The Flowmax® plastic instruments apply ultrasonic measuring technology and are mounted inline.

Low cost and high chemical resistance are established with body-materials like HDPE+, POM, PP, PFA, PSU and others on demand.
Inherent to the ultrasonic measuring principle, a fast, accurate and repeatable measurement brings excellent results in pulsating flow and even reverse-flow.
All instruments can be ordered with three- or eight-point calibration certificate.

Complementary Flowcontrol Solutions

June 30, 2021

Liquid flowmeasurement is interesting, but it’s often just half the solution. Most applications which require a flowmeter are using the flowmeasurement to control the process. Flowmeister strives to deliver maximum value to you. A good example of such value is the trust you experience when your process is running well under a steady flowcontrol solution.

Flow sensor or flowmeter?

January 14, 2021

To be honest, when we would be having a conversation about your application, it doesn’t matter wether the needed instrument is referred to as flowmeter or flow sensor. We will both know what we mean and come to the right conclusion. A different situation is the moment that an engineer starts searching the internet for a flow sensor. Chances are high that the search result returns a sensor which has no proper measuring capability. A disappointing testresult is to be expected. Read more

Trust by design

December 10, 2020

When asked what is the most important property of flow measurement, almost every customer answers “ACCURACY”. Understandable, you would rather not invest in an inaccurate instrument to control your pocess. When the conversation continues, very often it appears that the automated production system is not too dependent on accuracy of the flowmeasurement itself. Read more

Repeatability vs reproducibility

October 3, 2020

The quality of the flowmeter is easily verified by doing a number of repeated measurements and comparing the measured values. A robust measurement concept will prove the multiple readings to be close to each other, there is little to no variance. The instrument then has a high repeatability, which is a positive aspect.
