Flowmeters are an important component in water treatment systems. Operators rely on the accuracy of a flowmeter’s readings, particularly for chemical dosing and other low-flow processes. Accuracy in metering depends on a range of factors, from the types and quality of liquid being metered to the meters themselves. Generally, the two most accurate meter technologies are static meters (i.e., those without moving parts), which includes ultrasonic and magnetic flowmeters (mag meters). Both have their advantages, but the right fit will depend on the application. This makes it important to understand the pros and cons of each technology before making a purchase.
