Whatever the need, McCrometer propeller flow meters offer unbeatable value in cost of installation and ownership and set the standard for ease-of-use, reliability, and economy. Our leading-edge meters have offered versatile water flow measurement for more than 65 years.
Propeller flow meters are a favored technology due to their mechanical design, easy DIY maintenance, and economical price tag. When maintained and cared for according to manufacturer’s specifications, the propeller flow meter offers a 20+ year lifespan with minimal change in accuracy over the years.
Combined with straightening vanes or flow straightener products, the propeller flow meter’s straight-run requirements are cut in half, benefitting users with tight spaces, limited pipeline, or retrofit installations. The propeller flow meter with flow straightener generates optimum flow profiles to produce reliable, repeatable flow measurements for the life of the measurement device.
McCrometer flow meters are a favorite in agriculture, especially for irrigation purposes.
For more than 65 years, farmers have relied on McCrometer meters to get the job done with unprecedented accuracy and exceptional durability.
Farmers and irrigators can rely on McCrometer flow meters, period.
Accurate and reliable flow measurement devices not only keep hydrants in compliance with the fire code, but can also help identify issues such as leaks, blockages, and inefficiencies, improving system performance and reducing costs. Choosing the right flow meter can make hydrant testing easy and provide trusted flow data.
McCrometer’s propeller meters are installed in a variety of drinking water treatment applications such as raw water, source water, borehole/wells, desalination, coagulation, filtration, treatment, and final water discharge. Measuring drinking water flow helps operators and technicians achieve operational sustainability and meet regulatory requirements.
Water utilities have a critical role in the overall water infrastructure transporting water from treatment plants to homes, businesses, and other users reliably and safely. Get better operational control over your drinking water distribution pipeline by investing in accurate, reliable propeller meters.
Whether you’re focused on meeting corporate water savings initiatives, efficiency and sustainability objectives, or simply looking to reduce leakage and increase profit margins, the right propeller meter from the McCrometer suite of products can support your goals.
McCrometer has a full suite of flow measurement products to fit the various flow applications in the mining, metals, and minerals industries. From source and storm water measurement, to slurries, fuel, and steam measurement, our meters are designed for challenging flow conditions.
Our suite of propeller flow meters provide the flow data your need to make informed decisions about your power plant operations – whether it’s for cooling water, raw water, or effluent flow measurement. McCrometer has engineered valuable solutions for your power generation applications that help save you time and money.
Fluid flowing through a pipe turns a propeller. Those turns, or revolutions, equate to flow rate and volume over time. The speed of the propeller revolutions correlated with the inside diameter of the pipe, calculate flow rate and totalization. Totalization and flow rate are indicated on a meter’s register.
Propeller meters are often used in agriculture and turf applications as well as municipal water but can also be found in certain industrial applications as well.
McCrometer offers two brands of propeller meters, the McPropeller and the Water Specialties flow meters. Both meters offer many configurations including saddle-style, top-plate, tube-style, reverse flow, and more.
