Litre Meter is on a mission. To
celebrate 35 years of continuous
manufacture of its Pelton Wheel flow
meter the company is looking for the
oldest instrument still in use and is
offering a luxury weekend break to
whoever sends in the oldest meter
for repair or recalibration.

The company started making
Pelton Wheel meters in 1975. They
have been used in applications
ranging from measuring the flow of
water to the boilers of a world record
breaking steam car to measuring the
flow of gasoline in an automotive
fuel injection test rig for Delphi.

The oldest working meters are
likely to have serial numbers that
begin xx/x4xxx, xx/x3xxx, xx/x2xxx
or xx/x1xxx.

If you think you have the oldest
Pelton Wheel in your facility please
contact Litre Meter. All LM & MM
meters returned for repair or
recalibration before 31 March 2011
are automatically entered, and the
competition is open to customers
from the UK and worldwide.
