Reading Solutions

Automatic Meter Reading

Walk-by or drive-by remote reading used to gain meter reads without having to access the meter. By being able to remotely read the meter, a meter reader is able to reach hard locations from his truck as he drives past the meter. This saves time and manpower. Because it is an electronic solution, leak and tamper detection are possible. Overall the time and manpower savings mean better kept water systems and less water loss for the utility.

DIALOG 3G Drive-By System

DIALOG 3G is an innovative AMR solution offering several unique, patented advantages--saving utilities time and expense in their meter reading operations. The DIALOG 3G Drive-By System is the solution for specific problems facing water utility and submetering customers. A unique miniature transmitter receiver utilizes the most recent technology to provide the meter reader with reliable, accurate readings as well as automatic detection of tampering, leaks, and backflow situations.

Other Products in the range include: DIALOG 3G Walk-By/Drive-By Handheld System and DIALOG 3G Fixed Base LAN

Meter Reading

Meter Operations

On Site Meter Reading

An automated on-site reading is done when the meter has an encoder, is hardwired to a ReadPad and a close proximity read is executed.

DIALOG 2G - On-Site Reading (OSR)

DIALOG On-site Reading System is the first step for automating meter reading. DIALOG Systems increase meter reading speed, reduce reading errors, eliminate the need to enter deep meter vaults, allow reading of pit-set meters without lifting meter box lids, and eliminate the need for inside-set meter access.

The DIALOG register relies on the industry-proven permanent register seal against moisture: a glass lens, stainless steel base, and a wrap-around gasket. DIALOG electronics are permanently sealed, protected from the failures caused by dirt or moisture penetration, and can be read in Sensus protocol. Reading meters in damp or flooded pits is no longer a problem.

On Site Reading Components

  • Radix FW230 Mobile Computer
  • Radix FW300 Mobile Computer
  • Radix FW500 Mobile Computer

Electronic Reading

Automatic Meter

Multi Jets

Product line sizes are 5/8``, ¾``, 1``, 1 ½``, 2``, Velocity type meters that all meet or exceed AWWA Standard C-708, most recent revision. Choice of Direct read, DIALOG, DIALOG 2G or DIALOG 3G, available in gallons, cubic feet or cubic meters.

Multi-Jet Meters

Millions of our 5/8``, 3/4``, and 1`` meters are in operation today. Using superior measurement technology, these meters represent the perfect balance between accuracy, cost, and longevity. With sensitivity to measure water flowing as low as 1/8 gallon per minute and accuracy unaffected by common particulates and build-up that would freeze other types, you can count on a Multi-Jet.

Modular Multi-Jet Meters

Available in bolt-flange or threaded designs, our 1-1/2`` and 2`` multi-jet meters are a great choice for a wide range of applications. With accuracy that extends into the lower flows that a turbine can`t handle, compact size and multi-jet performance, they are hard to beat. Modular Register design means easy upgrades to newer reading technologies, without the cost of changing out the whole meter.

Special Application Meters


Hot Water Meters

Velocity-type meter meeting or exceeding the performance requirements of AWWA Standard C-708. Water, evenly distributed through multiple inlet ports, flows past an impeller in the measuring chamber, creating an impeller velocity directly proportional to water flow rate.

Flexible Axis Meter

The next time you`re faced with a challenging residential installation, check out the Master Meter flexible axis meter (FAM). FAM flow tubes can be installed horizontally, vertically, or any angle in between. No matter where it ends up, the FAM measuring chamber remains horizontal for accurate and quiet operation. It can also be positioned so it is always facing up for easy reading.

To further simplify installation and reduce costs, FAM flow tubes can use standard meter couplings or solder-joint connections. And all Master Meter flexible axis meters are AMR compatible.

Electrical Output Registers for Multi-Jet Meters

Registers compatible with Master Meter 5/8`` to 2`` Multi-jet Cold or Hot Water Meters and 2`` to 12`` Turbine Meters providing single or double contact closure corresponding to defined volume increments.

Commonly used in utility, industrial and agricultural installations where totalization is required at a site remote from the meter, and where precise volume input to batching equipment is required, for injection of chemicals, dyes or other additives.




Hot Water Meter

Cold Water Meter

Compounds

The Dual Body Compound Meter uses both a multi-jet and a turbine meter to gain an accurate reading for both high velocity and low velocity flows. Highly accurate, dependable and flexible, it comes in 2``, 3``, 4`` and 6`` for your varied solutions.

The Master Meter DB (Dual Body) Compound Meter is designed to provide utilities with highly accurate measurement over a wide flow range. By incorporating a Master Meter multi-jet meter and turbine meter in one assembly, the DB Compound relies on proven velocity measurement to produce high and sustained accuracy over a broad range of flows.

Turbines

Our turbine family is divided into five groups based on body style and case construction material. The MMT, MMT-S, WT Turbines are designed to the AWWA Class ll Turbine Standards offering high accuracy design and incorporating low head loss and streamlined flow patterns, thus reducing the energy required for water delivery.

MMT Turbine Meters - 1-1/2`` to 12``

For high volume applications where high accuracy is essential, depend on Master Meter MMT or MMT-S Turbine Meters for utility or industrial cold water measurement.

Efficient Flow Patterns

  • AWWA C-701 Class II MMT and MMT-S Turbine Meter designs incorporate low head loss and streamlined flow patterns, reducing the energy required for water delivery. And the meters` extended flow ranges allow meter downsizing without revenue loss.

Durable Construction

  • Durable bronze case 2`` to 8`` MMT Turbines provide long service life. For 10`` and 12``sizes, cost-effective epoxy-coated cast iron construction affordably provides performance, strength and endurance. Nylon inlet flow conditioners and polypropylene rotors insure high accuracy and long service life.

Electronic Reading Compatible

  • All Master Meter MMTs are equipped with a DIALOG register, which interfaces to an appropriate output module for Master Meter reading systems -- DIALOG on-site reading, T-LINX advanced telephone AMR and RF-LINX fixed network radio.

MMT-S Bronze Turbine Meter w/ Integral Strainer - 2``, 3``, and 4``

WT Cast Iron-Epoxy Coated Turbines - 2`` to 8``

For 2`` to 8`` high volume installations too cramped to accommodate a standard length turbine meter, the Master Meter WT Turbine Meter offers a high accuracy design, 20 to 33 percent shorter than most turbines.

Fire Hydrant Meter

Accurate Measurement for Temporary Water Use

A lightweight aluminum case, replaceable and lockable handle, stainless steel internal inlet strainer, and unitized measuring chamber simplify handling and maintenance for the MFH Fire Hydrant Meter.

Strainers - Bronze, Cast Iron

Strainers are recommended for all services above 2`` to screen debris from the line that could cause damage to the measurement element. In addition to protection, strainers condition flows to improve meter performance.

Electrical Output Registers for Turbine Meters

Registers compatible with Master Meter 5/8`` to 2`` Multi-jet Cold or Hot Water Meters and 2`` to 12`` Turbine Meters providing single or double contact closure corresponding to defined volume increments.
