Irrigation Flow Meter — Water Use Monitoring and Flow Measurement
Category: Drip Irrigation Components
Price on request
Produced by irrigation equipment, water-meter, and flow-measurement manufacturers. Common producers include irrigation and water-control companies that manufacture mechanical turbine meters, paddle-wheel meters, electromagnetic meters, and ultrasonic flow meters. The exact manufacturer depends on meter type, pipe size, flow range, pressure rating, and connection type.
Product Description
A flow meter, also called a water meter, is used to measure the volume of water passing through an irrigation pipeline. It helps farmers, technicians, engineers, and project managers know how much water is being used in a drip irrigation, sprinkler irrigation, fertigation, or water-supply system.
In irrigation, a flow meter is important because it helps monitor water use, detect abnormal flow, identify possible leaks, support irrigation scheduling, and improve water-management decisions. It can also help compare the actual water delivered to the field with the planned irrigation requirement.
The meter is usually installed on the mainline or sub-main line, preferably in a straight pipe section where the flow is stable. For good accuracy, the pipe should be full of water and the meter should not be installed too close to pumps, elbows, valves, or fittings that disturb the flow. In many systems, it is installed after the filter and before the irrigation zones.
