AWWA Standard
Manufactured to comply with applicable provisions of AWWA Standard No. C-704-92 for propeller-type flowmeters.

Tube
A lightweight, portable meter with a compact design that enables the operator to quickly and easily install the flow meter for instantaneous and accurate flow measurement. The meter also provides totalization for use in determining collectible revenue for temporary hydrant deliveries. Other applications for the M1104 include industrial fire control, marine and sprinkler system testing.The M1104 Fire Hydrant Flowmeter features a full 4-inch diameter meter tube allowing greater flow capacity. The meter tube is made of stainless steel for maximum strength and corrosion protection. The short length design and convenient carrying handle facilitates installation, particularly in cramped spaces. The M1104 features standard 2 1/2-inch fire hydrant threads; male threads on the outlet with a brass swivel coupling on the inlet side.

Impeller
Manufactured of high-impact plastic, capable of retaining their shape and accuracy over the life of the meter. Each impeller is individually calibrated at the factory to accommodate the use of any standard McCrometer register, and since no change gears are used, the M1104 can be field-serviced without the need for factory recalibration. The M1104 Fire Hydrant Flowmeter features a modular assembly for easy removal and maintenance of major components.

Bearings
Factory lubricated, stainless steel bearings are used to support the impeller shaft. The shielded bearing design limits the entry of materials and fluids into the bearing chamber providing maximum bearing protection.

Register
The instantaneous flowrate indicator is standard and available in gallons per minute, Acre Feet, Acre Inches, Cubic Meters and other units. The register is driven by a flexible steel cable encased within a protective vinyl liner. The register housing protects both the register and cable drive system from moisture while allowing clear reading of the flowrate indicator and totalizer.

Installation
Standard installation is horizontal mount. If the meter is to be mounted in the vertical position, please advise the factory. A straight run of full pipe the length of five(5) diameters ahead and one(1) diameter behind the meter is the minimum normally recommended.

Register
As with all McCrometer propeller flowmeters, standard features include and instantaneous flowrate indicator and straight reading, six-digit totalizer.

Magnetic Drive
As with all McCrometer propeller flowmeters, standard features include a magnetically coupled drive.
