What drives the selection
Different duties at each point; treatment chemicals, fouling and conductivity
Candidate technologies
Suitable mechanical, electromagnetic or ultrasonic. Each is a starting point requiring exact-model validation.
Electromagnetic flow meters
Lowest measured conductivity. Liner, electrode and seal compatibility.
CandidateInline ultrasonic water meters
Fluid acoustic conditions and bubbles. Approved Q values and orientation.
CandidateMultijet water meters
Standard and edition behind Class A/Class B wording. The exact model’s low-flow limits.
Information to send with your enquiry
- Minimum, normal, continuous maximum and peak flow, including duration
- Different duties at each point; treatment chemicals, fouling and conductivity
- Connection, orientation, pressure, temperature and available straight pipe
- Power, data/reporting requirements, delivery pin code and quantity
What would rule a candidate out?
Check fluid incompatibility, an unsupported flow band, excessive pressure loss, unsuitable filling/orientation, missing power and an unproven approval or data interface. Resolve these before selecting by price.
