Industrial Oval Gear Flow Meter

The Industrial Oval Gear Meter is a modular flow meter design, economical yet highly accurate and rugged. Due to the rugged nature of this particular flow measurement technology, the industrial Oval Gear Meter can be used in a number of applications where conventional meters are not acceptable.

FEATURES

• High accuracy and repeatability
• Insensitive to viscosity change – Maintains accuracy
• Not affected by pulsating flows
• Can be mounted in tight pipework and any orientation
• Most industrial communications and outputs available
• Custom options available
• ATEX approval

OPERATION PRINCIPLE

Fluid enters the inlet port and then passes through the metering chamber. Inside the chamber, fluid forces the internal gears to rotate before exiting through the outlet port. Each rotation of the gears displaces a specific volume of fluid. As the gears rotate, a magnet on each end of the gear passes a reed switch in the top-mounted register’s circuit board. The reed switches send pulses to the microprocessor in the register to change the LED display segments. The oval gear meter can be used in conjunction with a variety of industrial registers
