In addition to recording and displaying water usage electronically, smart water meters can also control water usage according to agreements, automatically calculate water fees for tiered pricing, and store water usage data.


Smart water meters are quite familiar to everyone. In addition to recording and displaying water usage electronically, they can also control water usage according to agreements. However, some people use smart water meters improperly, causing great harm to the water meters. Therefore, I would like to share with you how to use smart water meters.


Installation precautions and usage instructions for smart water meters:
1. The diameter of the smart water meter should be selected according to the diameter and flow rate of the pipeline at the installation location, and it is advisable to use a flow rate close to the commonly used flow rate.


2. Before installation, debris and sand in the pipeline should be removed to avoid causing malfunction of the smart water meter. If there are impurities in the liquid, filters or screens need to be installed at both ends of the smart water meter.


3. This smart water meter needs to be installed horizontally, and the dry smart water meter needs to be far away from the insertion field. The dial of the meter should face upwards, and the direction of the arrow on the case must be consistent with the direction of the water flow. The installation location should avoid exposure to sunlight, water, freezing, and pollution, and be convenient for disassembly and assembly.


4. During installation, a valve should be installed in front of the smart water meter to cut off the water source and disassemble the smart water meter.


5. When installing the smart water meter at the inlet end of the circular water distribution network, a dedicated check valve for the smart water meter must be installed to prevent the meter from reversing and hot water backflow from damaging the smart water meter.
