H2Flow FlowVis FV-C-15 Flow Meter and Check Valve, 1-1/2 in Slip
Flow reading and check valve in one CPVC body.
Genuine H2Flow FlowVis FV-C-15 combination flow meter and check valve, sized for 1-1/2 in Sch 40 slip-fit plumbing. Reads 10 to 90 GPM directly on a clear GPM scale (LPM and FPS marks optional), and the integrated flapper handles backflow prevention so you do not need a separate check valve in the run. NSF 50 Level 1 certified for commercial pool service, factory calibrated, and installs horizontal, vertical, or upside-down with no loss of accuracy.

Can I install this right next to an elbow or other fitting?
Yes. The FlowVis is engineered to maintain accuracy with no straight-pipe run requirement, unusual for a flow meter. Most competing meters need 5 to 10 pipe diameters of straight pipe upstream to get a reliable reading. This unit reads true even when installed inches from an elbow, tee, or valve.
Do I still need a separate check valve?
No. The FV-C-15 doubles as the system check valve via the integrated flapper. Eliminates a fitting, a glue joint, and a leak point. Pair it with your pump discharge to prevent siphon-back when the system is off.
Will this fit my schedule 40 plumbing?
Yes. The slip end glues directly into a 1-1/2 in Sch 40 PVC socket fitting or coupling. Use standard PVC primer and cement, no special prep for the CPVC body. Dry-fit first, the flow direction arrow on the body must match the actual pump flow. For 2 in plumbing, use the FV-C-2 slip or the 2 in / 2-1/2 in spigot model instead.
