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.
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 pass 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.
