The range of a particular Rotameter can be increased by__________________?
Correct answer: A. Use of floats of different densities
- A. Use of floats of different densities
- B. No means
- C. Increasing the diameter of the float
- D. Decreasing the diameter of the float
Explanation
A rotameter's float position depends on the balance between buoyancy, weight and drag, so floats with different densities can provide different calibrated flow ranges. This extends the usable range by using interchangeable floats.
