MARS VEROflowModel VF-1 -Utility Service Analyzers for Water Meter Testing

SHARE

MARS Company specializes in the manufacturing of advanced water meter testing equipment, including the VEROflow Utility Service Analyzers. These analyzers, such as the VEROflow-1 and VEROflow-4, are microprocessor-based devices designed to assist in the field testing of water meters, ensuring the accuracy of flow measurements. The VEROflow-1 is capable of measuring flow rates to within 0.1 GPM and uses volumetric technology to meet AWWA and NIST specifications. The VEROflow-4 Touch is equipped with a user-friendly touchscreen interface and linearization capabilities to enhance testing precision. Both models connect easily to standard hose lines or fire hose coupling threads, facilitating streamlined operational procedures. MARS also offers a Calibration Certification program, ensuring all devices are annually calibrated and NIST-traceable for reliable performance. These tools support utilities in maintaining accurate water system operations, reducing unaccounted water, and ensuring compliance with industry standards.

Field testing residential water meters is easy with the MARS VEROflow-1 Utility Service Analyzer. The VEROflow-1 is a precision microprocessor-based test instrument that can measure actual flow rate to within 1/10 GPM. Pulse signals generated by the turbine are magnetically transmitted to the microprocessor, then computed into one of four units of measure and shown on an easily read LCD display.

Installation

Simplify the verification of water meter accuracy to within .5% by merely connecting the instrument to the customer’s hose line.

Application
Check both static and flow pressure at the customer’s residence. If any blockage exists, this data will indicate which side of the meter the problem is on. Serve as a rate of flow indicator, line pressure gauge and comparison tester for small meter shops not equipped with a full test bench and calibrated tanks.
Certification

The MARS VF-1 Utility Service Analyzer is calibrated on the MARS 5-1000 Water Meter Test Bench, a NIST traceable Test Bench System. All MARS Testing Systems follow recommended parameters for water meter testing and calibration as outlined in the American Water Works Association (AWWA) M6 Manual for Water Meter Testing.
