Oval Gear Flow Meters

Bopp & Reuther oval gear flow meters are a direct volume positive displacement (PD) meter known for accuracy and longevity in the field. This simple, robust design means the oval gear meter is stable in harsh environments and maintains accuracy regardless of the liquid temperature, changes in viscosity, or pulsating flow. Our oval gear meters average 40-50 years in the field without need for recalibration.

Oval Gear Flow Meters – Operating Principle

oval-gear-meter-operating-principle-diagram

Oval gear meter operation principle.

The measuring element of an oval gear meter consists of two toothed precision oval wheels which are driven by the fluid passing through the unit.  The number of revolutions is an exact measure of the volume.

Maintenance and recalibration requirements are minimal because of the lack of moving parts.  Often, the gear meter is selected over the Coriolis because of its accuracy and longevity in harsh environments where the Coriolis is susceptible to interferance from pressure or temperature changes and general wear.
