Product Overview

Engineers with small line size processes rely on the versatile are challenged finding a flowmeter with accuracy and repeatability. Many times orifice plates are specified for the job. An excellent alternative to an orifice plate, and one that should be carefully considered, is the Wafer-Cone, manufactured by McCrometer.

Unlike an orifice plate, the Wafer-Cone has no sharp edges so extensive maintenance and inspection are not required. The flangeless Wafer-Cone® is a space-saving unit is that is easy to install and ideal for tight-space installations and retrofits. The cone conditions the flow so the Wafer-Cone requires minimal upstream or downstream pipe runs and can be installed virtually anywhere in a piping system.

Ideal for small line sizes and with no moving parts, no replacement parts or scheduled maintenance, this meter offers a low cost of ownership and long life.

This device also offers interchangeable cones for flexibility in accommodating changing flow conditions without the need for recalibration. When flow conditions change over time, the cone can be removed and replaced with a cone at a different beta ratio eliminating the need to buy a new meter.

Finally, the Wafer-Cone is available with remote or direct mount configuration. The direct mount option minimizes installation labor while ensuring accuracy. Direct mounting the transmitter eliminates impulse lines, which not only lowers installation costs but also reduces potential leak points by more than 50 percent. Simple plug-and-play mounting ensures the meter is installed correctly the first time and eliminates a potential source of ow measurement errors.

Did you know… Cross Company is an ESOP (Employee Stock Ownership Plan). Our ESOP started in 1979 and as of 2006, we are 100% employee-owned! Learn more about our ESOP and how that benefits both team members and our customers.
Did you know... the precision measurement group at Cross was founded in 1939 by our current CEO's grandfather, Jim King. That's a whole lot of calibration!
Did you know... A fingerprint weighs about 50 micrograms. We know, we weighed it! The residue left from a finger can actually make a difference in weight results which is why we wear gloves when we calibrate weights. For reference, a sheet of paper is about 4.5 grams, that’s 4.5 million micrograms.
Did you know… Cross Company has grown significantly since our start in 1954. Over the years we've acquired 26 companies! Today, our five groups have expertise in everything from industrial automation to precision measurement, and industry knowledge going all the way back to 1939.
