  2. Water metering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_metering

    A typical residential water meter. Water metering is the practice of measuring water use. Water meters measure the volume of water used by residential and commercial building units that are supplied with water by a public water supply system. They are also used to determine flow through a particular portion of the system.

  3. Automatic meter reading - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_meter_reading

    The meter communicates to its collection point using 900 MHz mesh network topology. Automatic meter reading (AMR) is the technology of automatically collecting consumption, diagnostic, and status data from water meter or energy metering devices (gas, electric) and transferring that data to a central database for billing, troubleshooting, and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Utility_submeter

    A submetering system typically includes a "master meter", which is owned by the utility supplying the water, electricity, or gas, with overall usage billed directly to the property owner. The property owner or manager then places their own private meters on individual tenant spaces to determine individual usage levels and bill each tenant for ...

First, it provides an incentive to conserve water which protects water resources (environmental objective). Second, it can postpone costly system expansion and saves energy and chemical costs (economic objective).

  6. Flow measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_measurement

    This is the most commonly used measurement system for measuring water supply in houses. The fluid, most commonly water, enters in one side of the meter and strikes the nutating disk, which is eccentrically mounted. The disk must then "wobble" or nutate about the vertical axis, since the bottom and the top of the disk remain in contact with the ...

  7. Magnetic flow meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_flow_meter

    A magnetic flow meter (mag meter, electromagnetic flow meter) is a transducer that measures fluid flow by the voltage induced across the liquid by its flow through a magnetic field. A magnetic field is applied to the metering tube, which results in a potential difference proportional to the flow velocity perpendicular to the flux lines.
