The Applied Technical Services Family of Companies (FoC) conducts water flow meter calibrations for various industries and applications. Our environmentally controlled labs allow us to ensure that our clients’ flow meters remain calibrated and reliable.
What is a Water Flow Meter, and How is it Used?
A water flow meter is an instrument that measures the flow rate of water as it passes through pipes and tubes. Water flow meters offer essential insight into the water distribution in pipes, drainage systems, and similar infrastructure. Flow meters allow a business to control their water use which can help them do the following:
- Monitor Water Consumption
- Reduce Waste
- Optimize System Performance
- Achieve and Maintain Quality Control
Water flow meters are essential for a wide range of commercial and industrial applications.
Our Water Flow Meter Calibration Services
Water flow meter calibrations help to verify the accuracy and reliability of water flow meters. The calibration process helps manufacturers verify the flow meter’s accuracy, ensuring water flows remain efficient and compliant with industry regulations.
During calibration, our experts set up the flow meter and the reference standard in a controlled environment, and our technicians allow water to flow through both simultaneously at different rates. Once we collect data, we generate a calibration curve that establishes the relationship between the actual flow rates and the flow meter’s readings. We provide calibration certificates alongside our calibrations to ensure our clients are made aware of their device’s status before and after calibration. We recommend that our clients calibrate their water flow meters regularly to maintain high accuracy and performance.
The Benefits of Water Flow Meter Calibrations
Our water flow meter calibrations help our clients do the following:
- Ensure Measurement Accuracy
- Comply with Standards and Regulations
- Accurately Manage Water Resources
- Troubleshoot Issues
Failure to maintain a calibrated flow meter could result in costly inaccuracies, failed inspections, and potential safety hazards.
