Can glass rotameters be used universally?

Can glass rotameters be used universally? Can a glass rotameter marked with “Air 20°C 101325Pa” be used to measure the outlet flow rate of a hydrogen peroxide metering pump? Can a glass rotameter for gases be used with any gas, and can a glass rotameter marked “H2O 20℃” be used with any liquid medium? Also, a glass rotameter with a range of 4 m3/h and marked “H2O 20℃” was installed at the outlet of the wastewater pump, which has a capacity of 10 m3/h; as a result, this meter was damaged. How can it be repaired or adjusted? Is the design mentioned above reasonable?

I’m impressed too that the 4M3 flow meter is installed above the 10M3 one. The measurement values will differ depending on the medium; it’s possible to install it, but the readings will not be accurate. Another issue is that glass rotameters cannot withstand high pressure, and since you install them at the pump outlet, if ten thousand of them get damaged, then ten thousand will be ruined.

The minimum scale of the LZB-15 model marked as “air” is 0.6 m3/h; it is now being used to measure hydrogen peroxide, whose designed flow rate is 100 L/h. Can it detect this flow rate?

Is this one for use in the laboratory? Why are all the flow meters of such small size?

The range is 0.6–4 m3/h, right? That’s quite large
