Introduction

FluidoSense Oil Flow Meters (Model FS12-SS111C) are precision instruments designed to measure the flow of any oil by gravity or pump flow. Built on the trusted Positive Displacement principle using Oval Gear technology, these meters deliver reliable, accurate measurement across hydraulic, fuel, engine, gear, lube and food-grade oil applications.

Working Principle

As oil enters the single-case measuring chamber, it displaces two oval gears. Each gear rotation corresponds to a fixed unit volume of liquid — the rotation speed is directly proportional to the flow rate. Reed or Hall Effect sensors mounted outside the pressure boundary detect this movement, enabling accurate local or remote display readings.

Areas of Application

Ideal for all oil-based liquid measurement scenarios across industries

Hydraulic Oil
Fuel Oil
Engine Oil

Frequently Asked Questions

Our Oil Flow Meters work on the Positive Displacement principle using Oval Gear technology. As oil flows through the meter, it rotates two precisely machined oval gears in a sealed measuring chamber. Each rotation displaces a known volume of liquid, which is detected by external Reed or Hall Effect sensors to calculate flow rate and totalised volume.

The FS12-SS111C is suitable for measuring hydraulic oil, fuel oil, engine oil, gear oil, lube oil and food-grade oils. The stainless steel construction ensures compatibility with both petroleum-based and edible oil applications.

This meter delivers an accuracy of ±0.5% across the operating range of 50 to 1200 LPH. The repeatability is excellent due to the positive displacement principle, making it suitable for billing, batching and process control applications.

Yes, the stainless steel construction supports operating pressures up to 150 bar, making it ideal for hydraulic systems, high-pressure pipelines and demanding industrial applications.

Yes, we offer customisation in flow range, output signal (Pulse, 4-20mA, RS485 MODBUS), display options (local/remote), and material specifications. Contact our team with your specific requirements for tailored configurations.
