A water flow meter is an instrument used to measure the volume or mass of water passing through a pipe. These devices are essential in various industries, including water management and irrigation. By providing accurate measurements, water flow meters help in managing water resources efficiently. By providing real-time data, these devices enable better decision-making for water conservation efforts and infrastructure planning. In residential, industrial and agricultural contexts, flow meters ensure optimal water distribution, contributing to operational efficiency.
This water flow meter comes with a removable reducing connector which fits a ¾” or 1” BSP connection. This standardized threading ensures a secure fit, preventing leaks and ensuring optimal water flow. The meter has a universal push-fit hose connector adaptor outlet to easily connect to hose pipe.
This product requires a CR2032 Lithium 3V Coin Cell Battery (included)

You can switch between litres and gallons by pressing the button until the l/min or g/min appears on the screen. The hold down the button for 3 seconds, and the measurement will switch. This select will show the current flow rate/minute.
As Sum 1 and 2 are manually reset, you can use them to tally a period of your choice. For example, you could use Sum 1 to track daily water usage, and Sum 2 to track the month usage. Don’t forget to hold down the button and reset the figure!
