Low FLow Meters

OPERATING PRINCIPLE:

The Kenco 1618 Low Flow Meter is part of an oil supply system for a stationary engine or compressor crankcase. The 1618 is installed on the inlet side of the crankcase, upstream of a Kenco Oil Level Controller. The 1618 Low Flow Meter will provide a constant, accurate measurement of oil consumption by the crankcase, the power cylinder lubricators, and the compressor cylinder lubricators. A single pole single throw reed switch is also available as an option; the switch will close momentarily every time the piston inside the meter strokes.
The Kenco 1618 is the low maintenance, cost-effective solution for visible and accurate readings of engine oil consumption.


FEATURES:
  • Double action, single piston meter
  • Measures flow rates up to 5 gallons per hour
  • Provides an Indication of Engine Condition
  • Registers up to 9,999 gallons
  • Counter Immersed in Oil, Assuring Maximum Resistance to Wear From Vibration
  • SPST reed switch available(P/N 14308)
SPECIFICATIONS

MODEL 1618

MATERIALS OF CONSTRUCTION:
Housing = Aluminum
Seal Material = Buna-N
Chamber Seal Material = Teflon
Register Mechanism
= Zinc Based Lusteron K Coated Lithographed Numbers

PROCESS CONNECTION:
Oil Inlet = 1/2" FNPT
Oil Outlet = 1/4" FNPT

DESIGN DATA:
Single Cycle Displacement = 1/50th Gallon
Single Stroke Displacement = 1/100th Gallon
Maximum Working Pressure = 50 psi
Maximum Flow = 5 Gallons per Hour
Accuracy = Factory Tested +/- 0.75%

* For Gravity Flow, Recommended Static Head Pressure Is 12 Feet Above the Oil Controller.

** IMPORTANT: When a 1618 meter is installed upstream from a KENCO oil level controller, the inlet pressure on the oil level controller will be reduced by one half.
