NFPA Welcomes New Member: DGD Fluid Power

DGD Fluid Power is a partnership of specialists and engineers formed to develop new technology for use across all markets within the sphere of Fluid Power.

We realized that there was a “gap” in available diagnostic instrumentation used to monitor the performance of hydraulic systems and components. We have filled that gap with new flow meter technology. Our initial product release is the Cartridge Flow Transmitter (CFT) designed to fit industry standard cavities, eg: Sun Hydraulics’ T-18A and a modified M42 cavity. The initial design gives a 4-20 mA output across 4 selectable flow ranges, 25, 50, 75 & 100 GPM.
