Abstract	A bulk flowmeter for measuring mass flow of liquefied gases obtains the density by means of a recording float. The device allows measurement, with great accuracy, of the flow rate of liquefied gases at the beginning of the separation of gas from the liquid. The float chamber has a baffle protecting the vertical operation of the float, an inlet on one side for liquefied gas, a bottom outlet for liquid, and an upper side outlet for gas.
