Liquid Controls M-Series meters meet NTEP (NIST

Handbook 44) and International Weights and Measures

accuracy requirements as well as U.S. Military

specifications.

Design Features

Liquid Controls M-Series rotary motion positive displacement (PD) meters offer the ultimate in measurement

accuracy for custody transfer of petroleum products, aviation fuels, LPG, and a broad range of industrial

liquids. LC meters incorporate a unique design, presenting minimal intrusion in a flowing stream of liquid, as

well as minimal pressure drop through the meter. The LC meter consists of a housing in which three

synchronized rotors turn with no metal-to-metal contact. Hydraulic sealing is accomplished by a stationary

boundary layer of liquid, not by the wiping action of mechanical parts

Low pressure drop—will operate on gravity flow or pump pressure.Sustained accuracy—no wear from metal-to-metal contact inside the measuring chamber means

minimal deterioration in accuracy over time, fewer recalibrations, and longer service life. Meters

conform to NIST and International Weights and Measures accuracy requirements.

Wide temperature range—products can be metered accurately from -40° F (-40° C) to 160° F

(71°C).

Wide viscosity range—LC meters can accurately meter products from less than 30 SSU (less than 1

centipoise) to 1,500,000 SSU (325,000 centipoise).

Maximum adaptability—right angle design with choice of stock or custom elbows/ fittings provides

unequaled mounting flexibility to meet your installation requirements.

Rated to 150psi / 10.5 BAR.
