3/4" WATER METER 0.9-14GPM

Product Overview

Accurate flow measurement is the backbone of a high performing irrigation system. When a meter fails or provides inaccurate readings, your clients face catastrophic risks including undetected leaks, massive water waste, and potential crop or turf loss. During the peak of the growing season, a system shutdown due to a faulty meter can lead to expensive emergency service calls and missed project deadlines. Supply chain availability for specialized propeller meters remains unpredictable; waiting for a replacement during a summer heatwave is a risk your business cannot afford. Securing your inventory now ensures your projects stay on schedule and your reputation for reliability remains intact.

The Netafim USA propeller meter offers a distinct technical advantage over ultrasonic or electromagnetic alternatives by providing mechanical reliability without the need for external power sources. Its robust construction handles the rigors of field use better than standard residential grade meters, significantly reducing labor costs associated with frequent replacements and recalibrations. By installing a high precision meter that handles flow rates from 0.9 to 14 GPM, you provide your clients with the data needed for precise fertigation and water budgeting. Being well stocked with these units gives your crew a competitive edge in the field, allowing for immediate installation and system optimization.

Product Specifications

Available Models & Sizes

This 3/4 inch propeller meter is part of a comprehensive series of Netafim flow measurement tools designed for various pipe diameters and flow requirements. While this specific model is optimized for lower flow rates between 0.9 and 14 GPM, other configurations are available for high volume mainline applications. Please contact our sales team for full configurations, bulk pricing, or specialized pulse output options for remote monitoring.

Key Features

• Heavy duty propeller design resists debris buildup and maintains accuracy over a long service life.
• Mechanical register requires no electrical wiring or batteries, simplifying installation in remote areas.
• Flow range calibrated for high precision even at the lower end of the 0.9 GPM threshold.
• Corrosion resistant materials ensure compatibility with treated water and liquid fertilizers.
• Standard 3/4 inch NPT threads allow for easy integration with existing pipe manifolds.
• Dry dial register is hermetically sealed to prevent fogging and maintain clear readability in all weather conditions.

Common Applications

• Agricultural and crop irrigation
• Greenhouse and nursery operations
• Chemical and fertigation delivery
• Commercial landscape irrigation
• Sports turf and golf course maintenance
• Municipal parks and public spaces

Installation Notes

For maximum accuracy, install the meter in a section of straight pipe with at least five diameters of straight run before the inlet and two diameters after the outlet. Ensure the direction of flow aligns with the arrow cast into the meter body. Use standard thread sealant or PTFE tape on the 3/4 inch connections to prevent leaks, but take care not to allow excess sealant to enter the meter body where it could foul the propeller. Always follow local plumbing codes regarding backflow prevention and meter accessibility for reading and maintenance purposes.
