Nutating disc flow meters are very popular flow meters. Thanks to the close tolerance manufacture of internal components and using the bare minimum of moving parts, the nutating disc is a reliable and accurate meter capable of high flow rates. This type of meter can be used with a variety of liquids including oil, diesel and certain chemicals.

A nutating disc flow meter, as its name suggests, has a disc that wobbles (‘nutates’) as liquid passes over it. This motion is then recorded and converted to a reading on the display. Nutating disc meters aren’t especially sensitive to pressure change. So, unlike certain other meter technologies, do not necessarily require straight runs of pipe before or after the meter.
Our range of nutating disc meters enables you to benefit from their strengths with flow rates up to 150 litres per minute, 3 to 8 digit totaliser displays, high pressure capabilities (up to 10 bar) and accuracy of as low as +/- 1%. Nutating disc flow meters should not be used in applications where the viscosity of the liquid may change. Nutating disc meters are designed for use with “clean” liquids only. This is because particulate matter may damage the internal components which will ultimately lead to an inaccurate meter reading.
