Zusammenfassung:A system for flow control and measurement comprising a fluid tank, a pump in communication with the fluid tank, a manifold in communication with the pump configured to distribute fluid flow to two or more individual lines, and at least one flow device in line with each of the two or more individual lines. The at least one flow device comprising a housing, a hose disposed within the housing, a compression plate configured to compress the hose against the housing, the compression sufficient to close a lumen of the hose when fluid is not flowing through the hose, and at least one sensor configured to determine the position of the compression plate relative to the housing, where the position of the compression plate indicates pressure inside the hose.
