What is a measurement system?
A measurement system is that set of elements that lets us know how much water is passing through the duct in a given period of time, for whatever macro or micro, can be considered a system measurement.
What does a meter?
The meter is a device designed to record the consumption for each of the connections through which water circulates. Is measured in cubic meters in their respective fractions the amount of water entering the house. Types
metrics
1 .- Volumetric System
The principle of volumetric measurement is based on the use of a container whose volume is known and serves as a yardstick to measure the amount of water that passes, completing and vacating on the recipie you.
2 .- speed measuring system

elements of a measuring system
is possible to identify five types of these elements, although some systems may be missing, or occur more than once :

how data are obtained in a measurement system?
There are three possible ways of obtaining data for the children of flowmeters teams:
1. Indicators.
2. Registrars.
3. Totes.
Indicators: These are measurement devices that provide instant by a needle-scale indicator, or other means to provide data that identifies the measurement at the instant in which it occurs.
recorders: These devices allow to obtain the information over time on a continuous basis by means of graphs.
Totes: So are referred to devices that digitize and integrate the volume of water in a cumulative manner.
Turbine Sensors
turbine meters are based on the movement of a paddle wheel that is inserted into the pipe, so that each wheel giru implies a volume given water that accumulates on a meter.
meter reading types
There are different ways to read meter among which are:
sound meter
What do they do?
measure the velocity of the particles, either suspended solids or air bubbles, which move in a moving fluid. A transmitter transducer emits acoustic signals of known frequency, which are reflected by moving particles, which are captured by a receiving transducer

.
Advantages and Disadvantages:
- The cost of the system is independent pipe diameter
- is relatively expensive initial cost
- accuracy decreases with a high solids
- It has no moving parts and easy cleaning
- requires specialized technical
- must be programmed for each pipe material, thickness and diameter
- Not required field calibration
Water measurements according to their qualities or characteristics
How to detect leaks in the meter?
off all faucets inside and outside, and see if the sensor (the red needle marks only the flow) moves. If you notice any movement, take his time and determine how many liters per minute is wasted.
1. Around the front of your meter computers are displayed with a red needle consumption in liters it is taking your meter.
2. Black numbers represent consumption in cubic meters.
3. The red numbers represent fractions of a cubic meter.
