Positive Displacement Principle of Operation
These meters are of the rotary positive displacement
type. The accurately-machined housing contains a rotor which revolves on ball bearings and carries evenlyspaced blades. As liquid fl ows through the meter, the
rotor and blades (vanes) revolve about a fi xed cam
causing the blades to move outward. The successive
movement of the blades forms a measuring chamber of
precise volume between two of the blades, the rotor, the
housing, the bottom, and the top covers. A continuous
series of these closed chambers is produced for each
rotor revolution. Neither blades nor rotor contact the
stationary walls of the measuring chamber.
