WEDGE METERS
Our Wedge Type Flow Meters are designed to meet the needs of industries dealing with abrasive or viscous fluids that require frequent meter replacement. These meters offer a reliable, economical option for situations where durability and cost-efficiency are critical.
Segmental Wedge Meter
Amity Flow manufactures segmental wedge-type meters that provide a practical, cost-effective solution for high-wear applications. Available in line sizes from 1” to 24” and beyond, these Wedge Type Flow Meters are designed as differential pressure flow meters, ideal for challenging conditions like air-entrained liquids, particulate-laden fluids, high-viscosity mediums, or slurry-type fluids.
Eccentric Wedge Meters (E-Wedge)
The Eccentric Wedge Meter (E-Wedge) is developed by Amity Flow as a lower-cost alternative to standard ASME Venturi meters and eccentric Venturi meters, particularly in applications involving sand-oil mixtures or dirty fluids. The E-Wedge meters are designed with enhanced cladding capabilities and maintain similar overall pressure loss and accuracy, providing a balance between performance and affordability.
Key Benefits of the E-Wedge Meters
Cost-Effective Replacement
Significantly lower cost—up to one-third less than standard ASME Venturi meters—makes them a practical choice for high-wear environments where meter replacement is frequent.
Wide Operating Range
Discharge coefficients remain stable across a broader Reynolds number range than eccentric or standard Venturi meters.
Improved Durability
Enhanced cladding and optimized pressure boundary layer control help extend the meter’s service life.
Comparable Pressure Loss
Maintains the same overall pressure loss as an equivalent beta ratio ASME Venturi meter.
Decent Accuracy
Provides uncalibrated accuracy within ±1.5%.
Compact and Lightweight
Shorter overall length and reduced weight make for easier handling and installation.
