Low Flow Meter
Operating Principle:
 The Kenco 1618 Low Flow Meter is part of an oil supply system for a stationary engine or compressor crankcase. The 1618 is installed on the inlet side of the crankcase, upstream of a Kenco Oil Level Controller. The 1618 Low Flow Meter will provide a constant, accurate measurement of oil consumption by the crankcase, the power cylinder lubricators, and the compressor cylinder lubricators. A single pole single throw reed switch is also available as an option; the switch will close momentarily every time the piston inside the meter strokes.
The Kenco 1618 is the low maintenance, cost-effective solution for visible and accurate readings of engine oil consumption.
