AWWA
Standard
Manufactured to comply with applicable provisions of
AWWA Standard No. C-704-92 for propeller-type flowmeters.
Tube
The MG100/MS100 meters are designed to provide high
pressure rating and "Main Line" meter accuracy
in an inexpensive package. The impeller and drive
assembly are fully accessible through the open end
of the meter tube. The meter flow tubes are coated
with fusion-bonded epoxy for maximum corrosion protection.
Magnetic
Drive
As with all McCrometer propeller flowmeters, standard
features include a magnetically coupled drive.
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
MG100/MS100 meter can be field-serviced without the
need for factory recalibration.

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.
