Applications
Positive displacement water meters like the Carlon JLP-96 are used to measure the volume of water flowing through a pipe in residential, light commercial, and irrigation applications. They operate by capturing fixed volumes of water in a measuring chamber and counting each fill-and-discharge cycle — making them accurate across a wide range of flow rates, particularly at low flows where turbine meters lose precision. The 3/4 in NPT connection is the standard size used in most residential water service lines in North America. These meters are commonly installed by municipalities, water utilities, and property owners for billing, sub-metering, leak detection, and water usage monitoring. Carlon Meter Co. produced these meters for the U.S. utility market, and the JLP series was a widely used residential meter design. Replacement and surplus units see continued demand from plumbers, irrigation contractors, and meter-testing labs.
This Carlon JLP-96 positive displacement water meter is in good used condition. The polymer body is intact with moderate surface darkening and light handling wear consistent with prior service use. Both 3/4 NPT threaded ports are present and undamaged. The register dial face is clean and fully legible, showing the US Gallons scale and sweep hand in good condition. It was pulled from a working environment where it was previously in use and has not been tested or re-certified at our facility. Please view our photo set and contact us if you have any questions.
