AW Lake Flow Meters

Ideal for highly filled and abrasive fluids, such as polyurethanes and polymers, glues and sealing materials, as well as heavy fuel oils.
Product Description and Principle of Operation
AW Gear Meters positive displacement gear flow meters are similar in design to the gear pump.
However, the principle of operation is reversed: instead of the gears driving the medium, the medium
drives the gears. A non-intrusive sensor detects the movement of the gear. As each tooth passes the
sensor, the sensor produces a square-wave pulse and measures a discrete volume of liquid. The
resulting pulse train is proportional to the actual flow rate, providing a highly accurate representation of
the fluid flow. All flow meters are designed with highly wear-resistant moving parts to provide
exceptionally long service life. The materials of construction are:
- stainless steel or high-strength aluminum housing
- stainless steel gears
- either tungsten carbide sleeve bushings or stainless steel ball bearings (depending on model)
The fluids you are metering should be compatible with these materials.
Benefits:
AFFORDABLE AND ACCURATE
This meter has the ability to maintain consistent accuracy despite
changing viscosity conditions, with accuracy of ±0.5% of reading.
RUGGED CONSTRUCTION
The SRZ’s solid meter construction is made of 303 stainless steel with
tungsten carbide bearings for corrosion resistance and durability.
Optional hard-coat gear offerings available.
FLEXIBLE
May be used with a wide range of materials and viscosities with a low
pressure drop than conventional meters and wide flow range/size
selection. Models offered with either BSPP or NPT threaded ports.
PROVEN RELIABILITY & PERFORMANCE
With a proven industry record for reliable meter life and electronics, these
meters are ready to be installed into your process today.
