The first truly electronic Portable Hydrant Meter flowmeter

Features ABB Flow meter integration

The Portable Hydrant Meter meters are supplied fitted with an ABB AquaMaster battery powered electromagnetic flowmeter and are the first truly electronic Portable Hydrant Meter flowmeter.

With no mechanical moving parts the AquaMaster flowmeter has eliminated the problems associated with mechanical meters, these being damage caused by iron and other particles frequently found in water which cause blockages, wear and tear which in turn affect the accuracy of the measured data.

Portable Hydrant Meter Meters

We supply two versions of the Portable Hydrant Meter Meter, these being a vertically mounted and horizontally mounted design. Both versions have an integrally mounted display unit with in-built datalogger as standard.

The AquaMaster display unit has an easy to read LCD display showing flowrate, totalisers, velocity and alarm condition. Flow units are site selectable to suit the customers requirements.

Portable Hydrant Meter Display

Typical applications for the Portable Hydrant Meter meters are where water usage needs to be accurately calculated and regulated, mains flushing and checking adequate flowrates, i.e. fire mains, breaking down large DMA’s (using waste meter points) and for checking the accuracy of in-line DMA meters

The transmitter has the option of a dual pulse output for use with a remote reading device if required.

Key features

  • No moving parts to wear or get damaged by particles in the water or high flowrates
  • Wide operating flow range which means flows down to 0.1 litres/ sec. can accurately be measured, for high flows flows the accuracy is ±0.5% of actual flow reading
  • The built in datalogger will measure and record flow (and if required pressure via a remote transducer which would connect to the pressure tapping point on the Portable Hydrant Meter)
  • ‘Fit and Flow’ system means all settings and totaliser values are backed up in the sensor
