OM Series Oval Gear Flow Meters

FLOMEC® OM Series Oval Gear meters provide exceptional accuracy and repeatability in a wide range of applications measuring clean liquids.

Direct volumetric measurement from the positive displacement design gives you a flow measurement that is unaffected by changes in temperature, pressure, or viscosity – factors which can cause measurement errors in other flow meter technologies.

With a simple and reliable design concept using only two moving parts, they provide long service life and minimized maintenance costs.

FEATURES & BENEFITS

  • High accuracy and repeatability, measures every drop and saves waste in your process
  • Low pressure drop, minimizing pumping costs
  • Extremely versatile design accurately measures high and low viscosity fluids
  • No requirement for flow conditioning (straight pipe runs) gives a simple and inexpensive installation
  • Only two moving parts provides a reliable product with minimal maintenance costs
  • IECEx/ATEX models available, making the product safe to use in flammable liquid applications

SIZES & FLOW RATES

FLOMEC Small Capacity OM Series Oval Gear meters are well suited to measurement of very low flow rates of various additives, chemicals, fuels, lubricants, and purified waters. Exceptional accuracy and reliability can be obtained on clean liquids of almost any viscosity.

Particularly when flow rates are very low and the viscosity is high, Small Capacity OM Series meters provide exceptional performance, while other technologies can provide disappointing results.

Pipe Sizes 1/8” – 3/8” (4mm-10mm) | Flows from 0.26 GPH - 145 GPH (0.5L/hr-550L/hr) with Pulse-Out or LCD Display

OM Series Oval Gear flow meters are perfect for measuring small volumes of thick or non-conductive liquids.

Typical Applications

  • Fuel additive injection
  • Fuel consumption measurements
  • Diesel injector/pump test equipment
  • Water treatment chemical dosing (flocculants, surfactants, biocides, etc.)
  • Corrosion inhibitor dosing
  • Demineralized / RO water dosing or dispensing
  • Monitoring of oil or grease lubricants

FLOMEC Medium Capacity OM Series Oval Gear meters are well suited to precise measurement of fuels, oils, solvents, alcohols, mildly aggressive chemicals, and various other clean industrial liquids. Flow rates from 0.26 GPM - 130 GPM (1L/min-450L/min), combined with low pressure drop, weights and measures (Australia/New Zealand only) and various hazardous area certifications make the Medium Capacity OM Series meters well suited to almost any liquid transfer or dispensing application whether pumped or gravity-fed.

Pipe Sizes 1/2” – 2” (15mm-50mm) | Flows from 0.26 GPM - 130 GPM (1L/min-450L/min) with Pulse-Out or LCD display

OM Series Oval Gear flow meters are perfect for measuring the transfer of thick or non-conductive liquids.

Typical Applications Include Dispensing or Bulk Transfer of:

  • Diesel fuel (FM Approved)
  • Gasoline with or without ethanol content (FM Approved)
  • Biofuels (FM Approved)
  • Kerosene (FM Approved)
  • Glycols / Antifreeze
  • Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF / Adblue®)
  • Lubricating oils and greases
  • Edible oils
  • Solvents (FM Approved)
  • Resins and adhesives (FM Approved)
  • Fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides

FLOMEC Large Capacity OM Series Oval Gear meters are well suited to precise measurement of fuels, oils, solvents, alcohols, mildly aggressive chemicals, and various other clean industrial liquids. Flow rates from 10 GPM - 600 GPM (35L/min-2500L/min), combined with low pressure drop, weights and measures (Australia/New Zealand only) and various hazardous area certifications make the Large Capacity OM Series meters well suited to almost any liquid transfer or application whether pumped or gravity-fed.

Pipe Sizes 3” – 4” (75mm-100mm) | Flows from 10 GPM - 600 GPM (35L/min-2500L/min) with Pulse-Out or LCD display

OM Series Oval Gear flow meters are perfect for measuring the transfer of thick or non-conductive liquids.

Typical Applications Include Dispensing or Bulk Transfer of:

  • Diesel fuel (FM Approved)
  • Gasoline with or without ethanol content (FM Approved)
  • Biofuels (FM Approved)
  • Kerosene (FM Approved)
  • Glycols / Antifreeze
  • Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF / Adblue®)

  • Edible oils
  • Solvents (FM Approved)
  • Resins and adhesives (FM Approved)
  • Fertilizers, herbicides, insecticides

FLOMEC OM025 PPS (Ryton®) Oval Gear meters are an exceptionally cost-effective alternative to a stainless steel meter when chemical resistance is critical, but pressures and temperatures are low.

With internal components constructed entirely from PPS (Ryton) and Alumina ceramic the OM025P Chemical Meter is well suited to precise measurement of non-potable water, fertilizers, herbicides, diesel exhaust fluid, and a wide range aggressive, or corrosive chemicals where standard engineering metals are not suitable.

Pipe Size 1” (25mm) for Chemical Applications | Flows from 2.6 GPM - 40 GPM (10L/min-150L/min) with Pulse-Out or LCD Display

OM Series Oval Gear Chemical flow meters are an economical solution for measuring an aggressive or corrosive liquid.

**Please confirm chemical compatibility before purchase**

Typical Applications Include Dispensing or Bulk Transfer of:

  • Water (non-potable, demineralized, RO)
  • Glycols / Antifreeze
  • Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF / Adblue®)
  • Fertilizers
  • Herbicides
  • Insecticides
  • Also suitable for many non-flammable fuels and oils

FLOMEC OM Series Oval Gear meters with mechanical display are well suited to precise measurement of fuels, oils, and various other clean industrial liquids. This range of meters provides many of the advantages of the electronic version of the OM Series meters with a rugged mechanical display that provides trouble-free installation and usage in remote areas or areas with no power.

Pipe Sizes 1/2” – 4” (15mm-100mm) | Flows from 0.26 GPM - 660 GPM (1L/min-2500L/min) with Mechanical Display
