I am looking for a simple fuel low-flow rate guage that will read in the 1 to 6 gallon per hour rate range. There are all kinds of meters available (turbine type) that will measure flow rates of .1 to 6 liters or more per minute. But I need one that measures lower flow rates. It will be used to monitor diesel burning rate in Hago Siphon nozzle burners used to melt iron in my small iron foundry. In this application they are typically set up to burn about 2 to 3 gallons per hour though they nominally burn up to 1 gallon per hour. Suggestions? Any help appreciated.
Presently I calibrate them for flow by weighing the fuel container at intervals. While it is possible to determine flow rate this way but it is hardly convenient and makes tuning rates very cumbersome.
