GKN is one of the global market leaders in powder metallurgy products and is represented across many sectors, such as the automotive industry, automation, medical technology, and renewable energy.

GKN Sinter Metals S.p.A. in Italy uses our devices in its heat treatment systems within the quenching bath application.

Thanks to their robust and reliable design, the KLA-EM flap-type flowmeters are ideally suited for this application.

The KLA-EM is equipped with a 4–20 mA transmitter for remote monitoring. The output signal is filtered and linearized to ensure reliable measurement value representation.

Both in the heating and cooling circuits of the oil bath, the devices have been operating without failure since July 2015. The flap-type flowmeters perform flawlessly at oil temperatures of up to 90°C and ambient temperatures of up to 70°C.
