High-pressure designs

PK / P

Ultra-high and high pressure

Models PK (up to 96 MPa — size 003..PK) with a wide U-shaped tube type and P (from 10 MPa) — solutions for the most demanding high-pressure applications. Optimised for hydrogen service, they offer high accuracy at low flow rates. Support for UNF, VCO/VCR connections.

Overview

PK — ultra-high / P — high pressure

Design PK is intended for applications requiring flow measurement at extremely high pressures up to 96 MPa (size 003..PK). The wide U-shaped tube configuration provides high sensitivity and accuracy even at minimum flow rates.

Design P is intended for systems with operating pressures above 10 MPa, including refuelling and dosing of hydrogen and other high-pressure gases. Medium temperature range −50…+150 °C, sizes 001..P–025..P (DN01–DN25) and 100..P (DN100). High sensitivity and stability at low flow rates ensure precise control under high pressure.

PK — key features

Ultra-high pressure — operating pressure up to 96 MPa (size 003..PK) for the most demanding applications
Optimised for hydrogen — special materials and design for service with hydrogen-containing media
High accuracy at low flow rates — the wide U-shaped tube provides maximum sensitivity
Compact and rugged — reinforced design in a compact housing
UNF, VCO/VCR support — a wide choice of high-pressure fittings and connections
Suitable for hydrogen energy, oil & gas and LPG

P — high-pressure design features

1.5× safety margin — the operating pressure exceeds the stated nominal by a factor of 1.5
Smooth inner surface of the tubes — minimal hydraulic resistance and stable measurement at minimum flow rates
Hydrogen embrittlement-resistant materials — optimal for hydrogen energy and H₂ fuelling stations
High-pressure connections — NPT 1/4″, UNF 13/16–16, G 3/4″ (also on request — optional)
Micro flow rates on hydrogen — from 1.2 kg/h (DN01) at pressures above 10 MPa

The use of a special composite metal resistant to hydrogen embrittlement makes designs P and PK the optimal choice for hydrogen energy, fuelling stations and H₂ dosing systems. The smooth inner surface of the tubes minimises hydraulic resistance and ensures stable measurement even at minimum flow rates.
