The Dwyer VFA-32-EC-BSPT is a Visi-Float Series VF acrylic variable area flowmeter (Model VFA) with a 2 in. direct-reading scale for 6 to 50 cc/min water. It is a standard model without a valve and has BSPT end connections.
Specifications per Dwyer DS-VF Rev. 1 (8/20) and Dwyer Bulletin F-33 Rev. 8 (7/20); BSPT option per the DwyerOmega Series VF model chart (Oct 2026).
Best For
- Direct reading of 6 to 50 cc/min water with no conversion charts
- Chemical injectors
- Medical and laboratory equipment
Warranty
DwyerOmega warrants products to be free from defects in material and workmanship under normal use for one year from delivery to the buyer, or such other period, if any, as specified in the product-specific warranty typically supplied with the product.
Key Features
Direct-Reading cc/min Scale
The 2 in. scale reads 6 to 50 cc/min water directly. Scales are hot stamped into the plastic, eliminating troublesome conversions and increasing operating life.
Solid Acrylic Body
Cut and precision machined from a solid, clear acrylic block, allowing complete visual inspection.
Precision Tapered Bore
A precision machined tapered bore enables high repeatability.
White Background
A white background improves float visibility, increasing reading accuracy.
BSPT Process Connections
Supplied with BSPT process connections at the ends of the body. Metal mounting inserts allow the meter to be supported directly by system piping.
Factory Calibrated
Each flowmeter is calibrated at the factory.

Frequently Asked Questions
What flow range does the Dwyer VFA-32-EC-BSPT measure?
The VFA-32-EC-BSPT reads 6 to 50 cc/min of water directly on a 2 in. (50.8 mm) scale, with 5% FS accuracy.
What process connections does the VFA-32-EC-BSPT have?
The VFA-32-EC-BSPT has BSPT end connections.
What are the pressure and temperature limits of the VFA-32-EC-BSPT?
The VFA-32-EC-BSPT is rated 100 psig (6.9 bar) @ 150°F (65°C); 150 psig (10 bar) @ 100°F (38°C).
Does the VFA-32-EC-BSPT include a flow control valve?
No. The VFA-32-EC-BSPT is the standard model without a valve. Valved versions add -BV (brass valve) or -SSV (stainless steel valve) after the range code.
How do I mount the VFA-32-EC-BSPT?
Mount it in a vertical position with the inlet connection at the bottom and the outlet at the top, free from vibration. For surface mounting, install the screws through the panel from the rear into the 10-32 threaded inserts; screws must not be longer than the panel thickness plus 1/4 in. The meter can also be supported on the connecting piping only.
How is the VFA-32-EC-BSPT cleaned?
Clean the flow tube and body with a little pure soap and water; a soft brush helps. Avoid benzene, acetone, carbon tetrachloride, alkaline detergents, caustic soda and liquid soaps, and avoid prolonged immersion. A little stop cock grease or petroleum jelly on the O-rings helps maintain a good seal.
