Description
Overview
The FM900 1.5″ is a mechanical diesel flow meter that counts litres on a roller register, with no electronics or batteries to fail. Fuel turns the measuring element and gears drive the number wheels, giving a batch counter you reset by hand and a cumulative total that keeps running.
The 1.5″ ports suit bowsers and tank outlets plumbed in larger hose, where a 1″ meter would be a bottleneck. Inside, it is the same body as the 1″ FM900, so spares and handling are the same.
Key features
- Mechanical roller register, nothing to charge or replace
- 1.5″ threaded inlet and outlet
- Hand-reset batch counter with a non-resettable total
- Aluminium and engineering plastic construction
- Reads 20-120 L/min at about ±1%
Where it works
A mechanical diesel flow meter makes sense where batteries go flat and nobody notices: a trailer bowser parked on a Free State maize farm, a generator tank at a rural clinic, or a contractor’s site tank during a long road job. Grain farmers like it on the harvester refuelling bowser because the reading is still there after a week in the sun and dust. Check it once a season with our calibrator for bulk flowmeters, and if you would rather meter at the vehicle, fit a digital flowmeter nozzle with auto stop.

Delivery and warranty
Kamano delivers with its own trucks from Polokwane to all nine provinces in 1 to 3 days. The FM900 1.5″ meter ships at about 3.3 kg, which puts it in the up to 30 kg band (R550). Delivery is free on orders of R20,000 or more, so it is worth adding the rest of your fuel kit to the same order. Ask us for the warranty terms on this model.
Questions about this product
Does the FM900 need batteries or a power supply?
No. The register is fully mechanical, so the fuel flow itself drives the counter wheels. That makes it a good fit for bowsers and tanks that stand in the field for weeks, or for sites where load-shedding and flat batteries are a constant headache. You only reset the batch counter by hand before each fill.
Should I choose the 1.5" or the 1" FM900?
Match the meter to your hose and pump outlet. If the pump and hose are 1.5", use this model so the meter does not choke the flow. If everything is 1", the 1" FM900 is the cheaper and neater fit. The body, accuracy and 20-120 L/min range are the same on both versions.
Do you deliver to Bethlehem in the Free State, and what does it cost?
Yes. Our own trucks run from Polokwane to all nine provinces, normally in 1 to 3 days, and Bethlehem in the Free State is on the route. The FM900 1.5" meter weighs about 3.3 kg packed, so on its own it falls in the up to 30 kg band (R550). Add enough to reach R20,000 including VAT and the whole order ships free.
