PRECISION METERS
Sotera Precision Meters incorporate oval gear technology, eliminating metal-to-metal contact within the measuring chamber. This unique design promotes minimal wear, sustained accuracy, and low operating costs. When measuring the flow of a broad range of products, Sotera s innovative meter design results in minimal resistance to flow and the ability to operate on pump pressure or gravity feed. That means efficient performance and low pressure drop across the meter. Sotera s combination of low pressure drop with minimum seal or slippage area offers better accuracy over a wide range of flow than other commercially produced meters. Simplicity in design and high-quality materials and manufacturing practices make Sotera meters more reliable and less costly to operate than other meters. In many cases, you can replace your existing meter with a Sotera meter with minimal disruption to system piping and components. Applications Truck metering Refined fuels LPG Aviation fuel Alternative fuels Lube oils Agricultural chemicals Bulk plant/terminal metering Refined petroleum products and LPG Alternative fuels Industrial chemicals/solvents Marine fuel/bunker oil Hot asphalt/asphalt emulsions Dispenser metering LPG and diesel fuel Diesel Exhaust Fluid Industrial process metering Liquid sweeteners/corn syrup Coatings Pulp and paper Pharmaceuticals Printing inks Concrete add mixtures Industrial liquids Acids/caustics Oval Gear Simple positive displacement technology; only two moving parts.
