The Flow Straightener
A tight-spot solution that saves money
By reshaping irregular flow into a smooth stream, the advanced Flow Straightener offers higher accuracy and repeatability when installed
in as little as 1.5 pipe diameters from chemigation, butterfly and gate valves, out-of-plane elbows, and reducers. Saving money by
reducing piping and labor costs, the Flow Straightener is ideal for both new and retrofit installations.

STRAIGHTENING VANES
Special attention should be given to systems using two elbows “out of plane” or devices such as a centrifugal
sand separator. These cause swirling flow in the line that affect propeller meters. Well developed swirls can
travel up to 100 diameters downstream if unobstructed. Since most installations have less than 100 diameters
to work with, straightening vanes become necessary to alleviate the problem. Straightening vanes will break
up most swirls and ensure more accurate measurement. McCrometer actively encourages installing vanes just
ahead of the meter. Straightening vanes are available in weld-in, bolt-in, and the FS100 Flow Straightener.

Wireless Telemetry
The optional FlowConnect is designed specifically for wireless telemetry via either
satellite or cellular data service. Manual meter reading is never required. It uses
either the mechanical register or the digital register (both shown above).
You can determine how often readings are made and transmitted to the cloud
database, which you can view on a PC or on a cell phone. The viewing utility
provides data tools that can analyze flow rate, consumption, and possible
anomalies in an irrigation system.

M0300SW Reverse Strap-on Saddle Flow Meter
DESCRIPTION
The M0300SW is a strap-on reverse-helix*
propeller meter designed to shed debris often
associated with surface water applications.
This flow meter is designed with the meter body
turned 180 degrees from normal, a propeller
installed nose-first on the bearing shaft, and
a reverse flow style bearing assembly. This
configuration allows the ell to curve with the
flow, allowing grass or other debris to shed off
with ease. The assembly design also reduces
the ability of sand and silt to accumulate in the
bearing.
All Mc Propeller flow meters are manufactured
to comply with applicable provisions of AWWA
Standard No. C704-02 for propeller-type flow
meters.

STRAIGHTENING VANES
Special attention should be given to systems using two elbows “out of plane” or devices such as a centrifugal
sand separator. These cause swirling flow in the line that affect propeller meters. Well developed swirls can
travel up to 100 diameters downstream if unobstructed. Since most installations have less than 100 diameters
to work with, straightening vanes become necessary to alleviate the problem. Straightening vanes will break
up most swirls and ensure more accurate measurement. McCrometer actively encourages installing vanes just
ahead of the meter. Straightening vanes are available in weld-in, bolt-in, and the FS100 Flow Straightener.

Wireless Telemetry
The optional FlowConnect is designed specifically for wireless telemetry via either
satellite or cellular data service. Manual meter reading is never required. It uses
either the mechanical register or the digital register (both shown above).
You can determine how often readings are made and transmitted to the cloud
database, which you can view on a PC or on a cell phone. The viewing utility
provides data tools that can analyze flow rate, consumption, and possible
anomalies in an irrigation system.

STRAIGHTENING VANES
Special attention should be given to systems using two elbows “out of plane” or devices such as a centrifugal
sand separator. These cause swirling ow in the line that a ect propeller meters. Well developed swirls can
travel up to 100 diameters downstream if unobstructed. Since most installations have less than 100 diameters
to work with, straightening vanes become necessary to alleviate the problem. Straightening vanes will break
up most swirls and ensure more accurate measurement. McCrometer actively encourages installing vanes just
ahead of the meter. Straightening vanes are available in weld-in, bolt-in, and the FS100 Flow Straightener.

Wireless Telemetry
The optional FlowConnect is designed speci cally for wireless telemetry via either
satellite or cellular data service. Manual meter reading is never required. It uses
either the mechanical register or the digital register (both shown above).
You can determine how often readings are made and transmitted to the cloud
database, which you can view on a PC or on a cell phone. The viewing utility
provides data tools that can analyze ow rate, consumption, and possible

MT100 Fixed Ell Threaded End Flow Meter
DESCRIPTION
The Model MT100 is manufactured to comply
with the applicable provisions of the AWWA
Standard No. C704-02 and latest revisions for
propeller type flowmeters.
The threaded ends of the MT100 allow it to be
directly coupled into an existing pipeline.
The carbon steel flow tube has a fusion-bonded
epoxy coating offering excellent corrosion
protection.
As with all McCrometer propeller flowmeters,
standard features include a magnetically
coupled drive, instantaneous flowrate indicator
and straight-reading, six-digit totalizer.
FEATURES
Impellers
Impellers are manufactured of high-impact Typical Applications

without the need for factory recalibration. • Water and wastewater management
Bearings • Truck loading and discharge
• Sprinkler irrigation systems
Factory lubricated stainless steel bearings are
used to support the impeller shaft. • Drip irrigation systems
• Golf course and park water management
The shielded bearing design limits the entry of • Commercial nurseries
materials and fluids into the bearing chamber
providing maximum bearing protection.
Register
An instantaneous flowrate indicator is
standard and available in gallons per minute,
cubic feet per second, liters per second and
other units.
The register is driven by a flexible steel cable
encased within a protective self-lubricating
liner.
The register housing protects both the register
and cable drive system from moisture while
allowing clear reading of the flowrate indicator
and totalizer.
