There are several different types of water meters produced by Badger Meter. They offer a line for residential water metering as well as a line of water meters for utilities and commercial use.
With the various designs and models in Badger water meter options, specific industries, as well as generalized applications, can find the correct system. These options can include disc meters, ultrasonic meters and turbo and compound meters. They also offer fire hydrant meters and specialized meters for reclaimed water.
Options in Meters
The Ultrasonic Badger water meter lines offer full automation and control of an integrated shutoff valve through specialized software. The system is designed to be fully tamper-proof, and it can be installed in two steps with the meter and flow valve as separate components.
The simplistic design of the disc meter line makes them an excellent option for both residential and commercial needs. They are designed for extended life in the field and come in different materials for use in a variety of environmental conditions.
Selecting the correct meter will be based on several factors. These factors include the flow rate, the temperature where the meters will be deployed as well as the pressure range. Commercial applications typically operate at higher flow rates, temperature, and pressures than residential water systems, which has to be factored into the design of the meters.
Benefits
Regardless of the model of Badger water meter selected, the benefits of the meters include durability, reliability, and accuracy in reading. They can be used with metering analytic software systems for real-time measurement, monitoring and analysis across the system as needed.
This software can be deployed to work on all internet connected devices including tablets and smartphones, making it practical for work in the field as well as throughout the system.
