Product Overview

The Oval Gear Flow Meter is a positive displacement flow meter designed for accurate volumetric measurement of liquids across a wide range of industrial applications. A high-pressure version is available for demanding operating conditions.

The measuring unit consists of two precision elliptical gears that rotate with the flow of liquid, ensuring accurate and repeatable flow measurement. Compared with many conventional flow measurement technologies, the oval gear flow meter provides reliable performance in applications involving varying pressure, temperature, or challenging process conditions.

Working Principle

The oval gear flow meter operates using the positive displacement measuring principle. Inside the measuring chamber, two precision-toothed elliptical gears rotate as liquid flows through the meter.

Each complete rotation displaces a fixed volume of liquid. By counting the number of gear rotations, the flow meter accurately calculates the total volumetric flow. This measuring method delivers high measurement accuracy and excellent repeatability for a wide variety of liquid media.
