Q: Is this gravity fed or does it need electricity?

1 Answer
  • GPI Product Expert
    A: Hello, The MR 5-30 can not be used in a gravity fed system. It will need to be attached to a pump to push the fuel through it. Thank you, GPI Team.

Q: Can this be installed in line on fuel hose just prior to nozzle so I can watch quantity of fuel being dispensed into equipment away from tank?

5 years ago
1 Answer
  • GPI Product Support
    A: A large mechanical meter like the MR 5-30 is too bulky to be installed at the nozzle end. It is typically installed in a stationary position. For installation at the nozzle, the 01A31GM would be a better choice.

Q: Can you install a filter before the meter or should it be after? Also I got a gpi pump and a filter just wonder how some have plumbed it in to all work with the meter as well. The kit you offer for the filter just comes straight out so how would add meter

  • GPI Inside Sales
    A: You would be better off installing the filter before the flow meter so it serves as a filter for your flow meter. The filter kit has an adapter with two end connections so you'll have to use a piece of pipe between that and the meter to install. If you have questions or need further assistance don't hesitate to give us a call and we can help guide you through installation. Thank you, GPI sales team.

Great product

5 years ago
Exactly as stated in description. A bit larger than expected but no big deal. Mounting was easy and the mounting options include vertical, horizontal, and even inverted. I had to take the face plate and internal working apart to flip the screen so I could mount it with the reset knob on the other side. The instructions detailed how to make the change and if you follow the directions it’s no problem. The unit is solid and appears to be extremely well made.

Yes, I recommend this product.

Works as expected, seems accurate.

6 years ago
I have a 12 GPM pump, with a filter & this in down to about 5 1/2 GPM, but I’m ok with that as it seems accurate. Only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars, the reset knob seems a bit cheap. And is a little finicky to reset. Other then that, works exactly as expected,

Yes, I recommend this product.

Thanks for purchasing our fuel meter! Anything you put in-line will affect your flow rate, although dropping it from 12 GPM to 5 1/2 GPM sounds like a lot... You may want to call us so we can look further into your application if you are concerned about it. Aside from that the reset knob is a simple piece and we made it economical in case a customer breaks one off so they can repair it with little to no cost. Any questions or concerns please call us!
