Nixon Flowmeters Limited products

The Nixon range of turbine flowmeters offers high accuracy and high reliability. Over 50 years, thousands of units have been sold to all classes of industry, and the meters have an excellent reputation for durability. Many leading flowmeter companies in the U.K. and abroad have the confidence to put their name on our range of turbine flowmeters, a sign of the high regard in which the product is held. The range has been modified and extended over the last few years to provide a reasonably priced general-purpose flow transmitter. We produce the units entirely in-house to control quality and availability. The range is available on short deliveries, and popular sizes are held ex-stock.

The BNO series flowmeters have been designed specifically for high accuracy flow measurement and batch control in the liquid food industries, and conform to the same exacting standards as our NT industrial flowmeters so far as performance is concerned. In the basic design, Nixon Flowmeters have been aware of the particular hygienic requirements of pharmaceutical industries and great care has been taken to ensure the absence of crevices where bacteria can lodge and breed. The materials used in construction ensure that no corrosive attack occurs when in-place cleaning agents are used.

The 100 series of secondary instruments have been designed as a rugged and versatile range offering the user anything from simple flowrate indication to batching, ratio metering and controlling applications. The indicator can be head, wall or panel mounted and the standard aluminium case design is to IP67.

Over the last twenty years many thousands of DFM units have been supplied to practically every industry in the UK. All units are available on quick delivery from our extensive stock. They are supplied with BSP female end fittings or PVC solvent weld sockets as standard. Stainless Steel inserts or Cast Steel unions are available at extra cost. See table in PDF document.

The BGN range of metal tube variable area flowmeters has been designed for those applications where conventional glass tube instruments may not be used on account of high pressures or liquid opacity, or for safety considerations when metering hazardous chemicals. As opposed to the `fixed float diameter tapered tube` principle used in conventional variable area meters, the BGN utilises a fixed sharp edged orifice and tapered profiled float, the float profile being machined to exacting standards to ensure a linear scaling.
