Propeller MetersSparling’s line of propeller flowmeters supplies an economical way to measure cold water in agricultural and municipal environments.FM132VertiFlo meters provide an economical meter installation for accurately measuring flows from wells equipped with submersible pumps. Equally ideal applications are installations on the suction side of centrifugal pumps or similar installations where space limitations and piping configurations deem it inadvisable to utilize the Sparling tube-type or conventional saddle type meters. Special requirements for meter installation are reduced to a minimum because the meter is installed in a standard flanged tee.FM134VertiFlo meters provide an economical meter installation for accurately measuring flows from wells equipped with submersible pumps.

Special requirements for meter installation are reduced to a minimum because the meter is installed in a standard flanged tee.FM102The Series 102 Direct Drive Meters are designed to provide accurate and reliable flow measurements where mainline service is required in the municipal and industrial areas. These meters have been used for over seventy years and have proven their reputation for rugged, continuous duty with minimum maintenance.This meter can be easily maintained or repaired with standard tools. The mechanical worm and gear drive is positive and prevents the possibility of slippage and low readings.The meter is available as a meterhead only or a meterhead complete with saddle or tube. See PDS-110.FM182 DirectThe Series 182 Direct Drive Meters are designed to provide accurate and reliable flow measurements where mainline service is required in the municipal and industrial areas. These meters have been used for over seventy years and have proven their reputation for rugged, continuous duty with minimum maintenance.This meter can be easily maintained or repaired with standard tools. The mechanical worm and gear drive is positive and prevents the possibility of slippage and low readings.The meter is available as a meterhead only or a meterhead complete with saddle or tube.

See PDS-110.FM142A Waterworks Intake Meter is an economical and easily installed meter for large volume flow measurement at the discharge end of a closed conduit, inverted siphon, and reservoirs. Existing structures often provide an excellent mounting for the meter.FM144A Waterworks Intake Meter is an economical and easily installed meter for large volume flow measurement at the discharge end of a closed conduit, inverted siphon, and reservoirs. Existing structures often provide an excellent mounting for the meter.FM312Specifically designed to provide accurate and reliable flow measurement to the irrigation marketplace, Sparling's saddle flow meter is the ideal solution to trouble-free water flow measurement in irrigation's severe environments. The saddle design allows the meter to be used on existing piping, and in many cases, these meters can replace other saddle flow meters.These meters feature cast saddles and gear boxes making them robust and reliable. The simple and rugged design ensures that the meter can be maintained using standard tools.The design is based on Sparling's proven meters that have been used in agricultural, municipal and industrial applications for decades. The meter is perfect for measuring flow in sprinkler systems and center pivot systems as well as irrigation systems used in agriculture, golf courses and nurseries.MainLineThe MainLine electronic propeller meter was designed to provide accurate and reliable flow measurement where main line service is required in municipal and industrial areas.The Model MainLine features the FT194-II battery powered electronic rate/totalizer which senses the rotation of the propeller by means of a magnetic pickup sensor located in the gearbox. The rate/totalizer and pickup are completely isolated from the flow stream.Fewer moving parts combined with a proven Sparling design relluts in less wear, reduced maintenace costs and longer life.The FM104/184 Series II is available with an optional 4-20mA output for remote totalizations using either the Sparling Model 787, 710 or the customer's remote totalizer with 24VDC power supply. Registration can be changed in the field with the Sparling Model 705 programmer.FM112/114The FM112 and FM114 Propeller meters are drop-in replacements for Sparling's Masterflo meters.The FM112 is identical in construction to Sparling's FM102 meters except that the FM112 features a custom coverplate and propeller center line dimension ('M Dimension') to allow this unit to replace Masterflo propeller meters without any changes to the piping or meter tube. The FM114 is identical in construction to Sparling's FM182 meters except that the FM114 features a custom coverplate and propeller center line dimension ('M Dimension') to allow this unit to replace Masterflo propeller meters without any changes to the piping or meter tube.These meters are designed to provide accurate and reliable flow measurements where mainline service is required in municipal and industrial environments. These meters have a proven design and a reputation for rugged, continuous, duty with minimal required maintenance.Sparling's propeller meters are ideally suited for clean water applications where the temperature of the water does not exceed 100°F and suspended solids do not exceed 0.5%.TotalizersProvides mechanical totalization (registration), mechanical rate indication.FT190-111For applications where the environment is unfriendly to a digital microprocessor device, Sparling has updated its FT190 to incorporate a 4-20mA and scaled pulse output. The FT190 is a rugged mechanical transmitter that has been successfully used in the field for over thirty years and the FT1990-111 continues Sparling's tradition of highly robust solutions for the flow metering world.The FT190-111 mechanical indicator/totalizer is used in combination with, and mounted on Sparling mechanical propeller flowmeters to provide mechanical totalization (registration), mechanical indication (flow rate) and a 4-20mA and scaled pulse output.Register ExtensionThis rigid extension is suggested for pit or other installations to raise the register clock to a more convenient level for reading and servicing. The extension is coupled directly to the meterhead, replacing the original register clock. Installation can normally be completed in the field without removing the meter from the line. The original register clock is relocated on top of the extension.The original register clock is relocated on top of the extension. To order an extension, simply specify the distance requested on the above drawing. Not suitable for Masterflo Models. Consult Factory.Tubes and SaddlesSparling MainLine direct or magnetic drive propeller meters may be furnished with a flanged tube or with a saddle for field welding onto the customer's pipeTubesSmall tubes up to 3" are provided in heavy duty cast iron. Larger tubes are epxoy polyamide lined and coated fabricated steel. Meters 6" and larger are equipped with three integrally mounted straightening vanes. Flanges are as required.150# or 250# AWWASaddlesSaddles for meterheads from 6" - 14" are provided in heavy duty cast steel with the Sparling standard bolt pattern.
