• Temporary or seasonal installations for landscaping and lawn care

Key specifications

• Mechanical numeric counter for cumulative volume measurement
• Compact, weather-resistant body suitable for outdoor use
• Designed for inline installation with standard hose or pipe fittings
• Simple, power-free operation
• Clear numeric display for easy reading of volumes

How to use

Install the flow meter inline between two hose or pipe sections using compatible fittings, ensuring a secure and leak-free connection. Orient the meter according to the indicated flow direction and fasten all joints. Once installed, run water through the system and read the cumulative volume from the numeric counter. Periodically inspect connections and the meter body for leaks or debris that could affect measurement accuracy.

Usage recommendations

For reliable readings, protect the meter from freezing temperatures and heavy impacts. If the meter is used outdoors, position it to minimise prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when possible. Flush the system occasionally to remove sediments before the meter to maintain consistent operation. Avoid using the meter with liquids containing large particles or aggressive chemicals that could damage internal components.
