The industrial oval gear meters pictured on the left are used for a variety of applications including
petroleum based fluids, water solutions, and liquids compatible with the materials of construction.
Examples of applications include petroleum, chemical, fuel management, lubrication, solvents and
food product industries.
HELICAL ROTOR
USAGE EXAMPLES
Common applications of the helical rotor meter involve the measurements of highly viscous materials
such as concrete or molasses. Pictured below is an example of one of these meters.
RECIPROCATING PISTON
Electromagnetic sensors outside the meter detect the rotation of a magnet inside the center of the
piston, which indicates the quantity or rate of fluid passing through the meter. Below is a picture of a
reciprocating piston meter.
USAGE EXAMPLES
The piston meter to the left is part of a system that handles diesel exhaust fluid. In the middle picture,
a piston meter is used in renewable fuel applications. Piston meters are good for low volume
measurement applications such as fueling light aircraft and helicopters, shown on the right. Other
industries that use these flowmeters include chemical, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, and food and
beverage.
ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES
High accuracy and repeatability. Can only be used with relatively clean
Only one moving part to cause wear. liquids.
Can be made of materials to ensure
sanitary needs of food and beverage
processing.

This proven design has over 80 years of unmatched performance and continues to provide the very best in flow
measurement, backed by our industry leading 10 year warranty (5 year warranty LPG)!
The TCS 682 series flow meter is a true
positive displacement meter that has a unique inline design consisting of three reciprocating pistons operating within
their respective measuring chambers. Each piston works in a manner similar to an automobile engine. The pistons
are fitted to a wobble plate, which has a shaft extending from its upper surface and a valve pivot attached beneath it.
The valve pivot drives a sliding valve from piston to piston as a known amount of product flows through each
cylindrical bore, controlling the sequence of events in a smooth mechanical motion. This smooth mechanical motion
is then transferred through the drive shaft to the register.
