Cost effective and commercially competitive Oil Meters

Oil flow meters are essential in the management and monitoring of fuel quantities as they are dispensed. They provide an accurate, reliable and economical way of obtaining all the information a user needs to control oil usage and energy costs.DMS have a range of Oil meters for use on small sized domestic systems to large commercial and industrial installations.

Badger IOG Industrial Oval Gear Meter

Industrial organisations face numerous operational and business pressures. Selecting the right flow measurement tool for the job is more important than ever to ensure environmental compliance, track precious resources and minimise operating and maintenance costs. Exceptionally durable flow meters help keep production up and running. To succeed in a competitive marketplace, manufacturers must deliver the right product on time, every time, as well as capitalise on opportunities for new products, while maximizing uptime and reducing production costs. Manufacturing and processing industries worldwide depend on precise measurement and control technology flow meters. 

These are an excellent choice for any number of Industrial applications including Chemicals, Petrochemicals, Water and Waste Water, Oils and Diesel Fuels, Pulp and Paper, Paints and Coatings and Printing. 

The IOG meter is a modular flow meter design, economical, highly accurate, rugged with shock resistant housing protects them from harsh and demanding environments. Due to the rugged nature of flow measurement technology, it can be used in a number of applications where conventional meters are not acceptable. Whether the liquid that you are measuring is very viscous or highly corrosive, the oval gear meter can handle it. The industrial oval gear is capable of measuring liquids which a typical flow meter not able to do. It is also designed for a variety of chemical applications including petroluem based fluids, water solutions and chemicals. The IOG meters are flexible of installation options (vertical or horizontal installation)

Industrial applications

•   Automotive fluid dispensing

     Accurately measure a variety of fluids used in the automotive industry, including engine oil, engine coolant, automatic transmission fluid and wiper fluid. 

•   Utility water treatment and distribution

     These applications demand the highest flow meter accuracy and reliability, as well as long-term stability and a low cost-of-ownership.

•   Oil and gas

      The flow of liquids and gases must be measured during every phase of exploration, production and transportation. 

•   Process and general industry

     Produce consistently reliable performance to ensure proper blending, custody transfer and signal transmission. 

•   Refining chemical and petrochemical

     From differential pressure and Coriolis flow meters to advanced control valves, our solutions help you measure what matters and improve the efficiency

     and reliability of your operations. 

Operational Principals

The IOG meters work on the principle of rotary displacement. Fluids enters the inlet port, and then passes through the internal chamber. As it travels through the meter, fluid forces the internal gears to rotate before exiting through the outlet port. Each rotation of the gears displaces a specific volume of fluid. As the gears rotate, a magnet on each end of the gear passes a reed switch in the top-mounted registers circuit board. Industrial Oval Gear Meter has magnets on the gears that cause the reed switches to send pulses to the register as they rotate.  The register is in a sleep mode until it detects these pulses caused by fluid going through the meter. The micro-processor in the register then measures the flow and will display either the batch totalisation or the flow rate of the fluid going through the meter on the 6 digit display. The registers batch totaliser is a 6 digit display with three places of resolution after the decimal point. 

The elettronic register module contains a microprocessor board powered by a lithium battery. It can be programmed to batch in litres, pints, quarts or gallons and will totalise in litres or gallons. A calibration factor and unit of measure are programmed during factory test. Unlike mechanical registers, these units can be electronically recalibrated in the field when necessary.
