T3000

The T3000 is a high velocity Class II Turbine Meter exceeding AWWA Standard C-701. The AMCO Water family of top-performing T3000 meters includes sizes 1 1/2" to 8" in bronze and 1 1/2" to 12" in epoxy coated cast iron. Also available is the 3" Fire Hydrant Meter for construction and other temporary water services.

Performance and simplicity are incorporated into the T3000 design. The T3000's throated inlet increases low flow sensitivity, assuring high accuracy while maintaining low pressure loss. This design also provides space between the rotor and chamber wall to allow passage of the suspended solids commonly seen in large meter installations.

For higher accuracy, in-line straightening vanes reduce turbulence. The T3000's under gear assembly reduces the speed of the driving magnet, preventing magnetic break-away during acceleration, maximizing usage registration.

The T3000 design is modular, facilitating maintenance by allowing replacement of the measuring element without removing the meter from service. High quality materials, including a tungsten carbide rotor shaft, PTFE (Teflon) radial bearings, ceramic jewel thrust bearings and stainless steel body trim, combine to maximize service life.
