ABSTRACT:
A positive displacement liquid flow meter uses two variable volume chambers 16,18 arranged in parallel, each with a reciprocable piston 24,26. While liquid from one chamber is being fed to the outlet 11, the other chamber is being charged with the liquid from the inlet 10. A sensing piston 32 in the outlet line 11 indicates when flow variation occurs and allows a feed back signal to be produced to produce the necessary alteration in movement of the piston from the chamber which is feeding the outlet line. Valves A, B, C, D are provided on either side of each chamber, so that when a chamber is feeding it is isolated from the liquid supply.
