Why select an ELDEC flowmeter?

How does the flowmeter work?

The flowmeter directly measures mass flow of fuel using the angular momentum principle. See the Flowmeters, How They Work section for a diagram and explanation detail.

What is flowmeter accuracy?

In general, accuracy is about 1/2% to 1% of point over the specified "cruise range," corresponding to the fuel flowrate during aircraft cruise flight. ELDEC flowmeters are matched to customer requirements, so accuracy is optimized for each application.

Why select an ELDEC flowmeter?

ELDEC offers unmatched capability in aircraft true mass fuel flow measurement. With over 30 years of experience on a variety of aircraft installations, we can provide an optimum solution for you. ELDEC pioneered the motorless type flowmeter, an industry standard. Send an email to Ask the Expert for further information on applying ELDEC flowmeter technology to your program.
