Battery Operated Magmeter Provides Reliable Flow Rate Measurements In Remote Areas

A municipal water district in the Southwest U.S. provides drinking water and wastewater treatment to a large distribution area.

It currently serves the daily water needs of over 1.6 million people with a treatment capacity of 550 MGD. The district had been using a different measurement technology supplied by a competitor as a basis for billing their customers. It was installed on their outbound transmission line. The district had questioned for some time, the accuracy of the readings
and, after testing, they found that the billing amounts were too low.
