Corgon flow meter
Discover our range of Corgon flow meter options, designed to accurately measure and monitor your gas consumption in industrial applications. Whether you use Corgon for welding, metal fabrication, or other manufacturing processes, our flow meters help you optimize efficiency, reduce waste, and control costs. Available in both insertion and in-line models, we have the right Corgon flow meter for your specific needs.
The importance of corgon monitoring
We provide flow meters to measure Corgon, a mixture of argon and CO2. Corgon is used for instance to optimize the welding process and to increase your weld quality. Prevent waste and inefficient usage of Corgon, as Corgon is an expensive gas. Our Corgon flow meters are easy-to-use and versatile. Get your flow meter in a complete start kit with all you need to start measuring immediately or get just the accessories you need for your specific application. To ensure high accurate readings, your flow meter will be calibrated with Corgon.
“VPInstruments’ meters are both accurate and available in either insertion or threaded inline design. We’ve relied on them for years. Local engineering support has always cared to ensure we get the full value and correct implementation from their product.”

Our VPFlowScope Corgon Flow Meters
Are you looking for a flow meter for Corgon measurement? Our Corgon flow meters offer solutions from supply to demand side measurement, and they are designed to be easy to use, affordable and complete. The VPFlowScope flow meters are suitable for measurement of compressed air, nitrogen, oxygen, helium, argon and other industrial gases. The VPFlowScopes Corgon Flow Meters all measure four principles in one: mass flow, pressure, temperature and total flow. Moreover, all our flow meters can measure bi-directional flow. Our flow meters have versatile outputs so you can connect it to any BMS or energy management system. The VPFlowScope M offers even Ethernet output, making installation even easier and saving on cables.
What is a corgon flow meter?
A corgon flow meter is an instrument designed to measure the flow of corgon gas, a mixture of argon and COโ commonly used in welding applications.
By providing accurate, real-time flow data, a corgon flow meter helps manufacturers:
- Control shielding gas usage
- Improve weld quality
- Reduce gas waste and operational costs
Because corgon is a relatively expensive gas, precise measurement is essential to ensure efficient use and consistent process performance.
How does a corgon flow meter work?
A corgon flow meter is typically installed directly in the gas pipeline and measures the gas flow continuously.
Most industrial gas flow meters (including those for argon-based mixtures like corgon) use thermal mass flow technology, which works by measuring heat transfer between a heated sensor and the flowing gas.
This allows for:
- Direct mass flow measurement without pressure or temperature compensation
- Stable and repeatable readings across varying conditions
- Reliable monitoring for process optimization and energy savings
The result is accurate insight into gas consumption, enabling operators to detect inefficiencies and maintain optimal flow settings.
Which gases can it measure?
A corgon flow meter is specifically calibrated for corgon (argon + COโ mixtures) to ensure the highest accuracy.
Depending on the configuration and calibration, similar flow meters can also measure other technical gases, such as:
- Nitrogen
- Compressed air
- Argon
- Carbon dioxide
- Other industrial gas mixtures
For best accuracy, it is always recommended to use a flow meter calibrated for the specific gas or gas mixture being measured.
What is the flow range and accuracy?
The flow range and accuracy of a corgon flow meter depend on the model, pipe size, and application.
- Modern thermal mass flow meters offer a wide turndown ratio, allowing measurement from very low to high flow rates in a single device
- Typical accuracy is around ยฑ1% to ยฑ3% of reading, depending on calibration and installation conditions
For optimal performance:
- Choose a meter sized to your application
- Ensure proper installation (straight pipe lengths, correct positioning)
- Use gas-specific calibration (corgon)
High-quality, properly installed flow meters deliver reliable data that supports process control, reduces gas consumption, and improves overall efficiency.
