In 2016, Copenhagen pump was challenged to adapt a positive flow meter technology to one of the world's most comprehensive medical validation programs. At first, the task seemed almost impossible, but after 18 months of hard work, a solution seemed to take shape.
Lutz Flow oval wheel flow meter with volume control is much appreciated by the operations staff for a special task and it was important that this particular solution could be continued in a new validation context. We therefore looked deeply into the construction of the meter and changed the point from point not validable contruction parts/principles. It was really a lot of work that required the efforts of all parties right down to subcontractors' subcontractors.
Preselection directly on the meter, meter accuracy, built-in relay for control and calibration, and a validated process made it extremely attractive to take the solution to new tasks. The flow meter is currently in operation on several sites, with more than 2 years of operation without intervention.
