Description
Overview
This 4 inch flow meter is a positive-displacement bulk fuel meter that measures diesel at 170 to 1700 L/min to ±0.25%, complete with air eliminator, strainer and a mechanical register. It is the size used on main depot lines, rail and road tanker bays and large mine fuel farms.
At these flow rates a small percentage error turns into thousands of litres a month, which is why the air eliminator and strainer matter: one keeps air out of the count, the other keeps debris out of the rotors. The register gives a resettable batch reading and an 8-digit total that cannot be wound back. For lines below 1150 L/min, the 3″ bulk meter costs less.

Where it works
Fit this meter where fuel moves in bulk every day: Mpumalanga coal mines, Limpopo platinum operations, port and inland fuel depots, large transport companies and municipal fleet yards. It checks tanker deliveries, records issues to sub-tanks and gives management a figure they can trust. Pair it with filters and pumps from our diesel pumps and accessories range, or step down to the 2″ meter for satellite tanks.

Orders of R20,000 or more (VAT incl.) travel free. At R47,202.75 this meter qualifies for free delivery on its own. It travels crated, so plan for a forklift or enough hands to offload. Ask us for the warranty terms on this model.
Questions about this product
Is a 4 inch meter overkill for my depot?
Only if your flow is under about 170 L/min, which is its minimum for accurate reading. If your pumps or tanker offloads run between 170 and 1700 L/min, this is the right size. Below that, the 3 inch or 2 inch meter will be more accurate and cheaper.
How heavy is it and how do I offload it?
The meter weighs about 70 kg and ships crated at around 93 kg. You will need a forklift, a pallet jack or two strong people to get it off the truck. Our driver will help position it where access allows.
Is delivery free to Witbank?
Yes. The meter costs well over R20,000 including VAT, so delivery is free to eMalahleni and every other town in the nine provinces. Our own truck brings it from Polokwane, usually within 1 to 3 days. Have a forklift or a few hands ready to offload the crate.
Can it be used for billing customers?
The supplier states the meter is NRCS approved for custody transfer. Ask us for the certificate before you order and check that it matches your use. On-site verification and sealing by an accredited verifier are still needed before you use it for trade.
