I am afraid it is one those places that don't sell to the general public. I would love to have a flow meter on my water inlet on the flute delphag.. The had a nice looking inline one. I may send them a email and see if the public can buy from them.

That would be a handy tool to git yer self dialed in. Not sure yew'd need it after a dozen runs.

I irrigate both my condensers with clear tubing. At least I can watch and gage flow.

Be nice to at least use a meter for a few runs anyway.

Maybe we can chip in and share :lol:

It would be easy enough to make a small propeller type device to put inside a clear tube to indicate water flow. It could be a larger bore section, to make it easier to assemble with a step up and step down to fit the supply tubing, you would not have to worry about plastics etc as it is only in the cooling lines.
