WHY METER ACCURACY MATTERS
Small Changes in Measurement Can Add Up
Meter drift is a gradual change in measurement accuracy as a meter operates over time. Wear and abrasive particles in the fuel path can contribute to that change. When a meter over-delivers, the difference between fuel dispensed and fuel recorded becomes a real operating cost.
The HD Meter is built to help maintain a consistent piston stroke and resist wear where fuel moves through the meter. For operators, that can mean a stronger foundation for dependable measurement, fewer drift-related adjustments, and better control of the equipment they rely on every day.
Durability Is in the Details
Real-world fuel paths can expose a meter to fine particles and abrasive wear. HD Meter components are designed to help the meter maintain performance under those conditions.
Graphite Deck Plate
Helps reduce wear on a critical internal surface as fuel and moving parts interact
Hard-Coated Rotary Valve
Built to better resist abrasion that can contribute to meter variation over time
Improved Valve Interface
An updated valve seat and shaft-to-valve engagement help the meter recover from small abrasive particles
Reinforced End Covers
Work with the piston stops to support a consistent stroke and durable operation
VALUE BEYOND THE INITIAL INSTALLATION
Long-Term Value at Every Dispenser
The cost of a meter extends beyond its replacement. Each calibration, repeat service visit, and early component change demands time from the people who keep a forecourt running.
The HD Meter brings stroke control and wear-resistant components together to help reduce drift-related calibration and support a longer service life than a conventional piston meter. That durability can help operators protect fuel inventory and get more value from the dispenser already on site.
Key Takeaways:
- Helps reduce accuracy drift that can lead to over-delivery
- Designed to lower the frequency of drift-related calibrations
- Built for a longer useful life in demanding fuel conditions
- Helps operators manage the long-term cost of dispensing equipment
