Water Management
For High-Accuracy Flow Measurement
Especially suited for agricultural water management, this vertical positive displacement meter is used to ensure accurate water usage readings. It uses an oscillating piston for precise volume measurement.
The meter is designed for vertical installation but can also be installed horizontally or on an incline, provided that it is always filled with water.
Why install a water meter on your farm?
In agriculture, every drop of water matters.
Whether you're irrigating crops, watering livestock, or cleaning facilities, knowing exactly how much water you use helps you work more efficiently and save money.
This VPD meter isn’t just a tool—it’s a smart investment in your farm’s productivity, profitability, and environmental stewardship.
A high-performance water meter helps you:
- Improve efficiency with data to fine-tune irrigation and water use.
- Cut costs by detecting leaks and eliminating waste.
- Stay compliant with water regulations and reporting requirements.
- Show your commitment to sustainable farming and resource conservation.
Smart Monitoring and Instant Alerts
With the meter connected to the MAXIMUS controller, your water usage is tracked in real time. If an issue arises, the system sends immediate alerts allowing you to act fast and protect your animals from potential health risks, minimizing losses and preventing waste.
Access to Historical Data
You can view and share detailed measurements anytime. Visual graphs spanning over selected time periods offer a clear overview of water usage trends, helping you make informed decisions for your operation.
This lead-free meter is the solution for those who are seeking longevity, minimal maintenance, and high precision.
Installation Tips
- Flush the line thoroughly after all plumbing changes to prevent the introduction of contaminants.
- Meter can be mounted in any position AND should be constantly full of water.
- For outdoor installation, protect meter from freezing and direct exposure to the elements.
