BRONKHORST CORI-TECH B.V.

8 SPECIAL APPLICATIONS

The CORI-FLOW can be used with special external valves like a Badger Meter valve and pumps with an

analog input (4-20mA or 0-10V) and still be an integrated controller.

The CORI-FLOW can also be used as a batch controller for filling purposes.

Please contact the sales department for these special features.
