Gear Meters
JV-TC Gear Meter
JV-TC Gear Meters were designed for measuring non-lubricating and filled fluids due to the specialized gear/shaft design, increased pressure rating (up to 6,000 psi), and improved flushability. These factors, along with the standard 7-point calibration and new EDGE sensor give you a 0.5% accurate meter across the full flow range – even in changing viscosity conditions.
Built To withstand 30+ years of use, measuring thick, abrasive fluids
The JV-TC Positive Displacement Flow Meter is part of AW-Lake’s “Next-Generation” line of Gear Meters and is the result of decades of experience, listening to customers and extensive and diligent study of the latest technologies available. These high performance flow meters have wider turndowns, higher resolution, higher pressure rating, and improved accuracy over their predecessor the JV-CG meter. This meter maintains high accuracy and repeatability, despite changing viscosity conditions, up to ±0.25% accuracy with select sensors. Applications well suited to the JV-TC meters include filling & dosing systems, 2- and 3-component mixing systems, and paint systems, such as seen in the automotive sector.
The JV-TC positive displacement flow meters (“TC” for the tungsten carbide bearing) build upon the performance you expect from us and take ease of use and durability to the next level, offering greater efficiencies in operation with higher resolution, higher standard pressure rating (up to 6,000 psi), wider turndowns, and improved accuracy – even in changing viscosity conditions.
Eliminate Waste – Maintain repeatable and accurate flow measurement, independent of changing fluid conditions. Track and report usage to quantify product/process quality, pump performance, or material levels.
Reduce Costs – By using the correct amount of expensive/costly fluids in your process and not overdosing, you can reduce material costs. And with proper lubrication or chemical dosing you can reduce maintenance costs.
Improve Product Quality – With flow meters that can ensure ±0.1% repeatability, you are able to maintain consistency in your processes by assuring each batch is the same. Despite long and continuous operation, these meters perform at the same level month after month… year after year.
Operate with Ease – Paired with our smart EDGE family of flow sensors there is one easy to learn set-up procedure available via phone or PC app. Our friendly & knowledgeable staff of Application Engineers are here to help you select the right meter and get you up and running quickly.
Enjoy Flexibility – The new meters were designed to seamlessly integrate with the EDGE sensors, which are available in panel mount, local mount, and battery, loop, or DC powered displays. Choose your output as well: Frequency or Analog (voltage or 4-20mA), or Modbus.

JV-TC gear meters are essential devices that measure and control the flow rate of liquids in 1-, 2-, and 3-component meter/mix and dispense systems. The JV-TC meters achieve precise and consistent delivery of the individual components, ensuring optimal mixing ratios and product quality. They also help reduce possible material waste and solvent consumption, which results in lower operating costs and environmental impact.
Industrial Paint Booths
The JV-TC Gear Meter is an excellent choice for paint systems due to its sleeve-type bearings, which are ideal for handling paints and other abrasive materials. Traditional gear meters with ball bearings are prone to breakdowns or material buildup, leading to hardening and operational issues. The sleeve bearings in the JV-TC Gear Meter prevent these problems, making it suitable for both standard and highly viscous paints, as there are no extra spaces for material to get stuck.
Commercial Printing
Large commercial printing plants rely on flow meters to monitor ink usage, both for a cost standpoint as well as for environmental compliance and reporting. Due to the viscous nature of printing inks, the JV-TC is an ideal meter for this application.
