SMITH METER TURBINE METERS

The Smith Meter Sentry Series Turbine Meter is a
rimmed, rotor-type meter with helical blades. Sentry Series
Turbine Meters utilize both an upstream and downstream
stator and have tungsten carbide bearings with a hydrody-
namic thrust balance system. They provide highly accurate
measurement required for custody transfer of petroleum
liquids such as crude oil and refined products in larger
pipelines.
