When a flow meter fails or is missing entirely, your crews lose the ability to verify that water is actually reaching the root zone, potentially resulting in failed inspections or costly turf damage. With summer heat approaching and supply chains often experiencing delays on specialized fluid control components, securing your monitoring equipment now prevents mid-season project bottlenecks. Having the right Netafim meter on hand ensures your projects remain on schedule and your clients continue to see the results they expect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Netafim USA 1-1\/2 inch MPT Propeller Flow Meter offers a significant technical advantage over lower grade digital sensors that are prone to interference. This mechanical propeller design provides reliable, real-time data without the need for complex external power sources in basic configurations. By choosing a professional grade meter, you reduce long term maintenance costs and eliminate the guesswork associated with manual flow calculations. Staying well stocked with these units gives your firm a competitive edge by allowing you to deliver precise water management solutions that lower water waste and operational expenses for your customers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eProduct Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHigh grade corrosion resistant polymers and brass fittings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eConnection Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1-1\/2 inch Male Pipe Thread (MPT)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlow Range\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3.5 to 55 Gallons Per Minute (GPM)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMeasurement Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMechanical Propeller\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePressure Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUp to 150 PSI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNetafim USA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColor\/Finish\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBlack and Green visibility housing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAvailable Models \u0026amp; Sizes\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis 1-1\/2 inch MPT model is part of a broader series of Netafim flow monitoring solutions; other configurations include larger flange connections and various pulse output options for remote monitoring.

Use standard PTFE tape or non-setting pipe sealant on the MPT threads to ensure a leak-proof connection without over-torquing the housing. Ensure the arrow on the meter body aligns with the direction of water flow to prevent damage to the internal propeller mechanism and to comply with local water monitoring codes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Netafim USA","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52122484998433,"sku":"70261-003230","price":564.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0955\/8458\/3969\/files\/70261-002720_PR.png?v=1765748792","url":"https:\/\/asiwsupply.com\/products\/1-12-mpt-flow-meter-35-55gpm","provider":"ASIW","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
