The KOBOLD KSV flowmeter is a low volume measuring and controlling device calibrated for flows of water or air. The unit has a plastic body with metal fittings and is kept leak tight through the use of O-ring seals. The floats are either aluminum, stainless steel, glass, or titanium. Though the float types are determined by measuring range, the customer has a choice of plastics for the body and metals for the fittings.The KSV is supplied with or without a needle valve, depending upon the order number. We generally recommend that the needle valve version be used to help stabilize the float during introduction of media (particularly gases) into the flowmeter. As is typical for needle valves, complete shutoff cannot be achieved with our valves. Should complete shutoff be desired, we recommend the installation of a shutoff valve upstream of the KSV.
