Blue White F-300 Series 1″ PVC Flowmeter | 5-35 GPM | F-30100P
Blue-White F-300 Horizontal Flow Meter 1″ IPS an aquatics industry standard for over six decades, Blue-White’s F-300 Flow Meter is accurate and has reduced space requirements for installation. The aerodynamic pitot tube is designed for smooth fluid flow through the meter. There are four capture points resulting in no float bounce.
Pitot Tube (impact tube) design makes it easy to install on existing pipe. Acceptable for outdoor installations (direct sunlight okay).

Installation Requirements
Minimum Straight Pipe Length Requirements – The meter’s accuracy is affected by disturbances such as pumps, elbows, tees, valves, etc., in the flow stream. Install the meter in a straight run of pipe as far as possible from any disturbances. The distance required for accuracy is 10 times the nominal pipe diameter before the meter and 4 times the nominal pipe diameter after the meter.
Mounting location
- F series meters must be mounted at the vertical (twelve o’clock) position
- Must be mounted on horizontal pipe only
- U & D series meters must be mounted on vertical pipe only
- The pipe must be completely full of water at all times
- See the minimum straight length of pipe requirement chart above
- The meter can accurately measure flow from one direction only
- U-series meters measure upward flows only
- D-series meters measure downward flows only
