Oval Gear Flow Meter | High-Precision Positive Displacement Meter

  • Brand:NOIKE-AH
  • Model:NKGF

Specification

Product Overview

The NOIKE-AH Oval Gear Flow Meter is a positive displacement (PD) flow meter designed for accurate liquid flow measurement. It measures flow by using two precision oval gears that rotate under the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet, displacing a fixed volume of liquid with every rotation.

This flow meter is particularly suitable for high-viscosity liquids, low-flow applications, and precision liquid metering. Multiple display and signal output options make it suitable for both local indication and industrial automation systems.


Why Choose This Oval Gear Flow Meter?

Choosing the right flow meter is essential for achieving accurate and reliable liquid measurement.

The NOIKE-AH Oval Gear Flow Meter offers several practical advantages:

  • Positive displacement measuring principle for high measurement accuracy
  • Suitable for high-viscosity liquids and low-flow applications
  • Excellent repeatability for stable long-term measurement
  • Multiple housing materials available for different media
  • Various signal outputs including Pulse, 4–20mA and RS485
  • Optional LCD digital display for local monitoring
  • Compact structure for easy installation and maintenance
  • Customized versions available for special industrial requirements

Operating Principle

The flow meter contains a measuring chamber with two precision oval gears.

When liquid enters the chamber, the pressure difference between the inlet and outlet drives the gears to rotate. Every complete rotation displaces a fixed volume of liquid.

The total flow volume is calculated by multiplying the number of gear rotations by the fixed displacement volume, providing highly accurate volumetric flow measurement.
