Badger Meter stands as a premier global manufacturer and innovator of high-precision control valves, customized flow measurement technologies, and specialized solutions engineered specifically for very small flows. Globally recognized for engineering rugged, micro-metering technology, Badger Meter excels where standard industrial valves fail, mastering the precise modulation of liquids and gases in critical research, pilot plant, and full-scale production environments. Their comprehensive portfolio is purposely built to deliver exceptional resolution, repeatable performance, and exact fluid management across demanding processing sectors.
By focusing on meticulous mechanical tolerances and application-specific alloy configurations, Badger Meter ensures that ultra-low flow rates are modulated with absolute stability and tight containment. Choosing Badger Meter infrastructure provides industrial facilities with access to a highly specialized lineup of miniature and standard control configurations, backed by deep technical application knowledge and local lifecycle support to optimize your most sensitive process loops.
In the realm of extreme precision, Badger Meter offers an extensive lineup of Research Control® valves engineered for exceptional throttling accuracy at fluid rates down to fractions of a gallon per minute. The portfolio features heavy-duty, small-bore control valves equipped with microscopic, precision-machined trims, interchangeable Cv components, and robust pneumatic or electric actuators to manage tight control increments effortlessly. Built to handle volatile media with surgical exactness, these ultra-low flow systems provide the stable, deterministic control required for additive dosing, chemical injection, and laboratory scale deployments.
Badger Meter is a pioneer in robust hardware configurations designed for severe service conditions within a compact footprint. Their advanced valve lineup features high-performance barstock and cast bodies available in specialized materials such as Hastelloy, Titanium, and Tantalum to withstand aggressive chemicals, high pressures, and extreme temperatures. By facilitating linear, equal-percentage, or quick-opening flow characteristics in miniature profiles, these rugged control tools empower operators to maximize process efficiency, protect continuous operations, and execute precision dosing without relying on oversized, bulky hardware.
For sterile environments and strict purity requirements, Badger Meter’s sanitary control valves set the definitive standard for clean-in-place (CIP) performance and fluid isolation. Engineered with polished stainless steel surfaces, crevice-free internal geometries, and FDA-compliant diaphram seals, these units are purpose-built to prevent contamination in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and food/beverage applications. When integrated into critical local loops, these high-resolution valves provide absolute repeatability and clean drainage, helping to safeguard product quality and eliminate batch contamination risks.
Beyond the physical valve trim, Badger Meter excels in complete control loop integration with its advanced positioner and accessory range. The lineup spans intelligent digital positioners, ultra-sensitive pressure regulators, and precision telemetry feedback options engineered to guarantee high-throughput, error-free communication with central control networks. This tight hardware integration ensures that real-time flow corrections execute smoothly at the edge, keeping sensitive process loops completely stable, safe, and protected against unexpected operational fluctuations.
