AWWA
Standard
Manufactured to comply with applicable provisions of AWWA
Standard No. C-704-92 for propeller-type flowmeters.
Saddle
The MO300 Bolt-on Saddle Flowmeter features a fabricated
stainless steel saddle which eliminates the fatigue-related
breakage common to cast iron and aluminum saddles and
provides unsurpassed corrosion protection. Fabricated
stainless steel construction offers the additional advantage
of being flexible enough to conform to out-of-true pipe.
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 MO300 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 an instantaneous flowrate indicator
and straight reading, six-digit totalizer.
