Product Description
Speed controller with indicator that provides improved reproducibility of flow rate.
[Features]
· The numerical indication of flow rate helps to reduce labor time and setting errors.
· Indicator window allows numerical indication to be checked easily.
· New piping threads reduce screw-in time by 1/3.
· Larger push-lock type knob.
· Stable knob position when fully closed (zero flow rate) onto the contact face stopper (rotating stopper).
· Minimal flow rate variation depending on the number of knob rotations.
· Easier to insert and remove tubes.
· Visual identification is easy because each release button is a different color.
