GW430 Round Gear Flow Meter
Summary:
Gear flowmeters, also known as PD flowmeters (positive displacement flowmeters) or volumetric flowmeters 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 inner wall of the measuring chamber. As the liquid flows through, it causes the gears to rotate, thereby 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.
