GW430D Round Gear Flow Meter
Summary:
Gear flow meters, also known as PD flow meters (positive displacement flowmeters) or volumetric flow meters for short, are among the most accurate types of flow measurement instruments. A gear flowmeter operates by utilizing the pressure differential between the inlet and outlet of the meter’s measuring chamber to drive a pair of meshing gears. The two precisely matched gears are housed within a finely machined chamber, such that the root of each gear tooth forms a sealed volume cavity of equal size with the measuring chamber. As the liquid flows through, it drives the gears to rotate, dividing the fluid into discrete, well-defined standard-volume segments. The total volume of liquid is determined by counting the number of times these volume cavities are sequentially and repeatedly filled and discharged.
