Description

Overview

The SM-50 is a 2″ positive-displacement bulk diesel flowmeter with an air eliminator mounted on the body. It measures fuel moving from a storage tank, tanker or IBC between 40 and 400 L/min and shows the running total on a mechanical register. Because air is vented before it reaches the measuring chamber, the count stays honest when a tank runs low or a suction line sucks air.

Choose this bulk diesel flowmeter 2 inch model when your pump is in the 100 to 400 L/min class and you want the air eliminator in one casting. For heavier offloading at 3″, step up to the M-80 3″ bulk flowmeter. If you prefer a vane-type meter in the same size, compare the FMC-50 positive displacement flowmeter.

Key features

  • Positive-displacement chamber, typically within 0.5% once calibrated on site
  • Integrated air eliminator ahead of the meter
  • Mechanical totalising register, no wiring needed
  • 2″ (DN50) line size for depot pumps and tanker outlets
  • Aluminium alloy body, 8 bar maximum pressure

Where it works

Transport depots in Gauteng use a meter like this on the yard tank so every truck fill is logged. On Free State grain farms it sits between the main diesel tank and the bowser fill point during harvest, and in Mpumalanga coal fields contractors fit it to service-truck tanks. It suits diesel, biodiesel, paraffin and fuel oils. See the full range of fuel flowmeters for other sizes and electronic registers.

Delivery and warranty

Kamano delivers with its own trucks from Polokwane to all nine provinces, normally within 1 to 3 days. The SM-50 ships at 18.5 kg, which falls in the up-to-30 kg band at R550. Fit a strainer upstream and calibrate the bulk diesel flowmeter 2 inch unit after installation. Orders of R20,000 or more (VAT incl.) travel free. Ask us for the warranty terms on this model.

Questions about this product

Will the SM-50 measure petrol?

Not as supplied. The SM-50 is set up for diesel, biodiesel, paraffin and fuel oils. Petrol is thinner and more volatile, so it needs different seals and a meter rated for that service. Tell us the fluid, the flow rate and your pump size and we will point you to a meter that suits it.

Do I still need a strainer if it has an air eliminator?

Yes. The air eliminator only removes air. Rust, scale and grit from old tanks can still damage the measuring chamber, so fit a strainer on the inlet side. A clean line protects accuracy and saves you from rebuilding the meter after a dirty delivery.

How much is delivery to a depot in Durban?

The SM-50 ships at 18.5 kg, which puts it in the up-to-30 kg band at R550 to anywhere in South Africa, Durban included. Our own trucks leave Polokwane and usually arrive in 1 to 3 days. If your order comes to R20,000 or more including VAT, delivery is free, and this meter alone already qualifies.

How accurate is it?

A positive-displacement meter like this typically reads within 0.5% once it has been calibrated on your own line. Calibrate after installation and again whenever you change the pump or the hose layout. Check it against a known volume, such as a calibrated 20 L can or a measuring vessel, every few months.
