Blue-White F30300P Flow Meter – 3″ Horizontal, 45–240 GPM
Part # F30300P — a precision acrylic flow meter designed for use on 3″ IPS horizontal pipe runs. This meter provides clear, accurate flow readings for medium to high flow systems, making it ideal for commercial pools, large in-ground pool systems, spas, and water treatment applications.
Key Features
- Designed for 3″ Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 horizontal pipe installations.
- Flow range of approximately 45–240 GPM depending on pipe schedule.
- Machined, polished acrylic body for high visibility and durability.
- Dual scale display allows viewing flow rates in GPM and LPM.
- Pitot tube style pick-up improves accuracy and reduces the required straight-pipe length.
- Includes saddle clamps and gasket for secure, leak-free installation.
- Rated for operating pressures up to 75 psi at 70°F.
Typical Applications
This flow meter is commonly used on commercial pools, in-ground pool filtration loops, spa circulation lines, and industrial water systems requiring reliable flow monitoring. It is ideal for verifying pump performance, system balancing, and ensuring circulation meets design specifications.
Installation & Compatibility Notes
Install on a horizontal 3″ IPS pipe section, ensuring the arrow on the body aligns with flow direction. Use the included saddle clamps and gasket to mount the meter securely. Ensure the pipe surface is smooth and clean before installation. After startup, confirm that the float moves freely and provides stable flow readings.
Why Choose This Flow Meter?
The F30300P combines durable construction with a clear, easy-to-read scale, providing dependable performance in demanding environments. It helps eliminate guesswork by giving accurate, real-time flow information essential for proper system operation.
Maintenance Tips
- Inspect the acrylic body periodically for clouding, scratches, or debris that may obstruct visibility.
- Verify the float moves freely; mineral buildup or debris may require cleaning or replacement.
- Check clamp screws seasonally for secure fit and ensure no leaks around the gasket.
- After major system service (pump changes, filter cleaning), recheck flow readings to confirm the system is operating within expected parameters.
