If the green Highlighted balls are showing the ideal flow rate, the orange ball is experiencing an in-line leak; whereas, the red ball is experiencing an in-line plug.
Wilger Visual Ball Flow Indicators
Wilger Visual Ball Flow Indicators let you identify any plugs or leaks so you can resolve them immediately.
No electronics needed. No costly maintenance. Just a simple, dependable flow indicator.
Flow Indicators are available in manifold feed and isolated feed columns.
The Wilger Visual Ball Flow Indicator manifold columns are infinitely stackable, so they can be built into any required configuration.
Manifold Flow Indicators come in three different columns sizes, broken down by recommended flow ranges:
Ultra Low Flow Column: 0.01 – 0.24 us gpm flow rates
Low Flow Column: 0.05 – 0.65 us gpm flow rates
Standard Flow Column: 0.07 – 2.70 us gpm flow rates
Isolated Feed Flow Indicators
Isolated Feed Flow Indicator Columns
The Wilger Visual Ball Flow Indicator isolated feed columns are used to monitor multiple single feed lines. For example, monitoring individual lines coming out of a squeeze pump.
Isolated Feed Flow Indicators come in two different columns sizes, broken down by recommended flow ranges:
Low Flow Column: 0.05 – 0.65 us gpm flow rates
Standard Flow Column: 0.07 – 2.70 us gpm flow rates
O-ring Seal (ORS) Check Valve Bodies
Wilger makes two styles of check valve body, with 4 different shut-off options available for each
O-ring seal (ORS) to ORS
An ORS male inlet with an ORS female port, allowing for an ORS metering orifice and ORS fitting to complete a manifold assembly.
ORS to Radialock Cap
An ORS male inlet with a radialock cap outlet (see Wilger Pricelist for options), use with metering orifice (#40285-XX series) to complete a manifold assembly.
Sharing the same thread as all COMBO-RATE® modules, the open thread is compatible with PWM or other precision ag systems.
Wilger Visual Ball Flow Indicator Benefits
ORS Metering Orifices
O-ring seal metering orifices are accurate and large enough to make them easy to handle, so switching rates is easy.
Custom hole-size orifices and ISO-color coded orifices are available to match any rate required.
Best in Class Clarity
FLOW VIEW™ ball flow indicators come standard with the best materials available on the market to make an ultra-clear, UV & chemically resistant flow indicator.
360° Range of Motion
All O-ring sealed fittings can be spun 360° without fear of leaking of pulling out.
This makes installation easy as the fittings pivot to where you need them to point.
Chemical Resistance
All of the Flow View™ and ORS fitting product lines are made specifically for chemical resistance.
With all fittings made out of glass-reinforced polypropylene with VITON® O-ring options, there isn’t much that these flow indicators can’t handle.

Don't Forget the New ORS Manifolds
For applications that do not require leak detection, the same ORS fittings and components can be used with Wilger’s ORS manifolds.
Manufactured from glass reinforced polypropylene, they are durable and chemical resistant.
