What drives the selection
Intermittent pumping, debris, power availability, seasonal storage and low pressure loss
Candidate technologies
Propeller, Woltman, irrigation-specific mechanical, electromagnetic, ultrasonic. Each is a starting point requiring exact-model validation.
Candidate
Propeller and irrigation water meters
Particle size, fibres and solids concentration. Intermittent pumping and air.
CandidateElectromagnetic flow meters
Lowest measured conductivity. Liner, electrode and seal compatibility.
Information to send with your enquiry
- Minimum, normal, continuous maximum and peak flow, including duration
- Intermittent pumping, debris, power availability, seasonal storage and low pressure loss
- 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.
