Accurate flow rate measurement of viscous liquids

A Titan Enterprises product story
Edited by the Laboratorytalk editorial team May 20, 2005

Oval gear flowmeters, for accurate measurement of non-conductive fuels and oils, viscous liquids and lubricating fluids, become more accurate as the liquid viscosity increases

Oval gear flowmeters from Titan Enterprises, typically used for accurate measurement of non-conductive fuels and oils, viscous liquids and lubricating fluids, are now available with transparent lids.

Unlike other flowmeters, measurement accuracy actually improves as the liquid viscosity increases, from a nominal 1% to around 0.1% of flowrate at higher viscosities.

The flowing fluid causes a pair of meshing gears to rotate, inside an accurately machined housing: the rotation allows the passage of a defined liquid volume, recorded and scaled for display by an electronic counter.

Normally available with stainless, aluminium or Peek bodies, Titans now offer the OG range of oval gear positive displacement meters with a transparent acrylic lid, allowing a visual flow check on the flowing liquid and the rotation of the gears.

All units are bidirectional and available in sizes from 1/4" to 2", for flows between 1ml/min and 500l/min.

Individually flow calibrated, they are supplied with a traceable flow test certificate: the electronic pulse output signal is transmitted via TTL or contact closure.

Models are available certified as suitable for use in hazardous areas.
