The Blue & White F-55500LA flow meter delivers precise 0.5 to 5 GPM measurement with adjustable flow control and a durable one-piece acrylic body. Built with corrosion-resistant internals and 1/2" MPT threading, this meter handles daily water treatment monitoring without the drift or failure common in cheaper alternatives.

INSTALLATION & USE
Mounting and Setup
- Thread the 1/2 inch male NPT connections into your water line or panel mount using thread sealant tape, ensuring flow direction matches the arrow marked on the meter body.
- Secure the meter vertically for most accurate readings, allowing the internal float mechanism to operate without interference.
- Turn on water flow gradually and use the integrated adjustable valve to regulate flow rate, reading measurements from the dual GPM and LPM scale.
- Verify flow accuracy by comparing initial readings to expected system output, then lock the adjustment valve once calibrated.
COMPATIBILITY
Application Range
The F-55500LA suits reverse osmosis systems, water treatment panels, commercial filtration setups, and lab applications requiring precise flow monitoring between 0.5 and 5 gallons per minute. The 1/2 inch male NPT threading integrates directly with standard plumbing fittings, while the panel mount design works for control boards and equipment racks. The polished acrylic body and corrosion-resistant internals handle treated and untreated water without degradation.
🔧 Mount the F-55500LA where you can see it without disassembling equipment. Flow irregularities show up immediately on the dual scale display, giving you early warning of membrane fouling, filter clogs, or pump problems before they become expensive failures.
