Meter technology

Propeller and irrigation water meters

These are application-specific designs used in agricultural and bulk-water service. An irrigation label alone does not establish that the meter can handle sewage, fibrous waste or abrasive slurry.

Advantages: models may suit agricultural pipelines and field maintenance requirements.

Limitations: allowable debris, installation geometry and the risk of rotor fouling need explicit confirmation.

Before buying: request particle-size and solids limits, not only a phrase such as “dirty water suitable.” Identify whether a strainer is required and whether its added pressure loss is acceptable.

What to specify for this type

Flow range and communications

Match actual minimum, normal, continuous maximum and peak flow to the exact configuration. A shared pipe size does not establish equivalent performance.

A connected metering system is five parts: meter → interface or module → network or gateway → software → billing, dashboard or control system. A quotation should name who supplies and maintains each one. AMR-ready equipment may still require separately quoted radio, gateway, head-end and billing software.

Documented models to consider

Questions before you choose

Does this type determine the final model and size?

No. Validate the fluid, flow range, pressure, temperature, orientation and acceptance requirements against the exact offered configuration.

Which accessories are included?

Only the written quotation can establish the supplied scope. Ask for the option code, pickup/module, power supply, gateway and required installation accessories.

Ready to discuss your requirement?

Send a model code, BOQ or a brief description of your application. Add technical details if you have them.
