Smith Meter® PRIME 4 Meter

Brand: TechnipFMC
The Smith Meter® PRIME 4 Meter is a 4-inch, single-case, positive displacement meter designed for maximum accuracy and reliability.

The PRIME 4 is ideal for loading rack service and custody transfer of petroleum products.

Applications include gasolines and oxygenates, ethanol, kerosene, diesel fuel, jet fuels, and fuel oils.
Features
  • Superior accuracy – minimal slippage for outstanding linearity and maximum accuracy
  • Low pressure drop – a unique flow pattern minimizes pressure drop to less than 3.2 psi at extended maximum flow
  • Superb reliability – unique design with only three moving parts results in low initial cost and minimum maintenance; direct pulse output eliminates the mechanical drive train resulting in fewer parts to fail and no need for a packing gland
  • Long service life – horizontal rotor and specially designed journal bearings minimize wear
  • Long-term stability – Polyketone blades show decreased wear over time keeping the meter stable between proving intervals and resulting in time and cost savings.
