Description
Mec-O-Matic Ball Indicator for Reliable Chemical Flow Verification
Chemical metering pumps are only useful when you know they are actually delivering products. The MEC-O-MATIC Flow Indicator solves that problem directly. It installs inline on the pump discharge line and gives operators an immediate, no-power visual confirmation that chemical is flowing. No waiting for water quality results to reveal a dosing failure hours later.
Built from NSF-compliant acrylic with a ball indicator that rises when flow is present and drops when it stops, this is the simplest, most reliable way to verify your chlorine feed system is working at a glance. Rated to 100 PSI, it fits directly into standard 3/8-inch discharge lines on MEC-O-MATIC and compatible chemical metering pumps.

Why the MEC-O-MATIC Chemical Flow Indicator Matters
The MEC-O-MATIC Chemical Flow Indicator serves one focused function: confirming that a chemical is moving through the discharge line at the moment you check it. The acrylic body is fully transparent, so the ball indicator is visible from across a mechanical room or chemical storage area without getting close to the discharge line.
This matters most in:
- Unattended pump stations where operators visit periodically rather than monitoring continuously
- Chlorine feed systems where missed doses carry regulatory consequences
- pH dosing loops where underdosing causes corrosion or scaling downstream
- Coagulant feed lines where interruption bypasses clarification entirely
Compatible Pump Models
This flow indicator with ball indicator by MEC-O-MATIC is made for seamless integration with select MEC-O-MATIC diaphragm chemical metering pumps and similar systems using 3/8-inch discharge tubing. It is ideal for applications that require reliable visual confirmation of chemical flow, particularly in chlorine feed systems.
This flow indicator installs directly on the discharge line to provide immediate verification that the solution is moving through the system. Its simple design makes it suitable for municipal water treatment, pools, and industrial dosing setups where consistent flow monitoring is critical.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the ball indicator on the MEC-O-MATIC flow indicator actually show?
The MEC-O-MATIC flow indicator with ball indicator for chlorine feed systems uses a buoyant ball inside the transparent acrylic chamber that rises when chemical is flowing and drops when flow stops. This gives operators an instant, zero-power visual confirmation of pump activity without any gauges, sensors, or electrical connections.
Is the MEC-O-MATIC NSF-compliant acrylic flow indicator safe for potable water chlorination systems?
The MEC-O-MATIC NSF-compliant acrylic flow indicator meets NSF 29, the standard for equipment used in water treatment chemical dosing contact applications. This makes it suitable for potable water chlorine feed systems, municipal treatment dosing lines, and any regulated installation where NSF certification is a specification requirement.
Where does the MEC-O-MATIC flow indicator 100 PSI install in a chemical feed system?
The MEC-O-MATIC flow indicator 100 PSI for chemical flow verification installs directly in the pump discharge line between the pump outlet and the injection point, in a vertical orientation. PVC fittings and Viton O-rings are included, so no additional hardware is needed to connect it to standard 3/8-inch discharge tubing.
Can the MEC-O-MATIC Chemical Flow Indicator handle chlorine and acid service?
The acrylic body of the MEC-O-MATIC Chemical Flow Indicator is compatible with sodium hypochlorite, dilute acids, and most water treatment chemicals at standard working concentrations, and the included Viton O-rings are rated for chlorine and mild acid service. Always confirm chemical compatibility with acrylic at the specific concentration being dosed before installation.
Does the MEC-O-MATIC flow indicator require any power or calibration to operate?
The MEC-O-MATIC flow indicator is entirely mechanical. The ball rises and falls with flow using buoyancy alone, requiring no power supply, wiring, calibration, or electronics of any kind. This makes it a zero-maintenance addition to any chemical dosing system that dramatically reduces the risk of undetected pump failure.
