G1227- Meter Idle Gear

The Harvey G1227 Meter Idle Gear is a precision-engineered replacement component essential for the mechanical metering system of Harvey Water Softeners. Designed to maintain the "non-electric" intelligence of your unit, this gear ensures your softener accurately tracks water usage and regenerates only when necessary.

Key Features

• Precision Calibration: Specifically designed to integrate with the Harvey gear train, ensuring the correct gear ratio for accurate water measurement.
• Durable Polymer Construction: Manufactured from high-grade, wear-resistant plastic to withstand constant rotation and provide long-term reliability in wet environments.
• Mechanical Efficiency: Minimizes friction within the meter housing, allowing the unit to trigger regeneration cycles without the need for electricity.
• OEM Compatibility: A direct fit for the Harvey TwinTec, Minimax, and Crown ranges of non-electric water softeners.

Technical Specifications

When to Replace the G1227 Gear

Over time, mineral deposits or fine sediment can cause wear on the gear teeth. You should consider replacing this part if:

1. Softener stays hard: The program wheel isn't moving despite water usage.
2. Audible Clicking: You hear a "clicking" or "slipping" sound from the top of the unit when a tap is running.
3. Visual Wear: Upon inspection, the teeth of the idle gear appear rounded, flattened, or stripped.

Installation Note

[TIP]

For optimal performance, the G1227 should be installed on a clean meter spindle. Use a small amount of WRAS-approved silicone lubricant to ensure smooth rotation and to prevent premature wear on the gear teeth.

Ensure your Harvey softener continues to deliver softened water efficiently with this genuine-spec replacement idle gear.
