Electromagnetic Flowmeter AquaMaster FEW400
- The solution from the masters of flow measurement – in 1988, ABB invented and designed the world’s first battery-powered electromagnetic flowmeter for DMA (District Metered Area)
- Invest smartly through a ‘single box’ DMA solution – combining flow, pressure, and data-logging
- Have the greatest confidence in your billing based on the highest accuracy with the widest flow range revenue meter
- Get early warnings for leaks or bursts and reduce NRW (Non-Revenue Water) – highest confidence in night line performance
- Have the highest confidence in the wet calibration – our flow rigs are certified by various national independent accredited bodies/laboratories all linked by the ‘International Laboratory Accreditation Cooperation (ILAC)
- Fit and flow with factory default settings. To customize minimal on-site configuration required with quick and easy configuration through ABB Velox mobile smartphone/tablet app
- The lowest total cost of ownership (TOTEX) over the complete product lifecycleAquaMaster conforms to the latest international standards to meet increasing legislative demands for accurate flow metering. Its wide measuring range ensures peak daytime flows are accurately recorded and its exceptional low flow performance aids network leak detection.
- Fit and flow for foolproof installation, all data is stored in the sensor to reduce on-site setup. AquaMaster’s unique sensor design conditions the flow profile resulting in excellent meter performance in poor hydraulic installation conditions.
