Many considerations will impact what type of meter is best for the job. It will help tremendously to consider the local environment, any possible pipeline intervention, and what the project priorities are. The flow meter can be used as a guide to making rational decisions about flow by knowing how it will interact with the … Continued
Hydronic systems are stringent and have exact criteria for flow calculation that must be met by commercial and industrial facilities. Flow meters take care of measuring closed-loop energy where the liquid is absorbed by a source, cooled or heated, and then provided to a load as needed. Effective hydronic device installation is a crucial phase, … Continued
Farmers and irrigation experts recognize the value of providing accurate flow meters. In addition to working on a regular basis, in the rugged farm climate, they need to be readily compliant with state regulations but yet easy to use and long-lasting. A Kansas family works as irrigation dealers, and they are also farmers overseeing thousands … Continued
Contemporary systems for heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) rely to a great extent on technology for flow and energy calculation. Owners of commercial and industrial facilities aim to deploy advanced flow metering solutions that allow them to accomplish optimum hydronic cooling and heating levels, even under very difficult conditions. In chilled/hot water systems, the … Continued
The McCrometer® McMag 2000 and McMag 3000 may have similar names and a small number change, but the differences between the two electromagnetic (mag) meters go much deeper. For example, the Mc®Mag 3000’s sensor is identical to the FPI’s, except it has more electrodes, and the line is more invasive. The tilted sensor positioning, however, … Continued
Western Lake Superior Sanitary District (WLSSD) is responsible for wastewater treatment for more than fifteen communities and a trio of large industrial facilities in a 500+ square mile region in the Duluth-Cloquet Minnesota area. Preventing the occurrence of leaks and sewer overflows is one of its key priorities, something which is controlled in part by … Continued
Did you know that the material construction of the McCrometer® V-Cone is among its most customizable components? Popular metals tend to be the norm for the V-Cone, but titanium is an option customers can explore. For applications that may involve especially corrosive fluid or dangerous environment, titanium may prove extremely useful, particularly if concerns regarding … Continued
As a result of factors like fatigue and stress, joints and fittings on the pipeline experience leaks. In the case of pipeline wall failures, they may also experience thinning due to these same factors. Although a multitude of factors may lead to stress on the pipeline, ‘pressure transients’ is the one we’re concentrating on for … Continued
We are proud to announce that The Avanti Company recently received the Itron® Outstanding Performance Award for our work with Miami-Dade Water and Sewer’s Collection Department (MDWASD) on the development of a Wastewater Advanced Metering Infrastructure (WW AMI) solution. Through collaboration with MDWASD, Avanti as well as the companies Utility Systems Science & Software (US3), … Continued
When is the last time you visited The Avanti Company website? We recently overhauled the Buy Products page, making it much easier for customers to purchase products from Liquid Controls. We’ve done away with the product configurator for Liquid Controls meters and simplified things for our customers by individually adding the most popular and frequently … Continued

Syrinix’s versatile, intuitive, high-resolution remote monitoring offers a trustworthy experience to help and enhance a changing workforce of utilities. With the RADAR tech framework, a host of innovative analytical methods can be used collaboratively by the team to offer a new … Continued
About two decades ago, Little Rock, Arkansas was dealing with a severe overflow issue. Any time it rained, hundreds of overflows were occurring, including lasting for several hours. Today, that number has been reduced dramatically and that is partially due to InfoSense’s Sewer Line Rapid Assessment Tool (SL-RAT). As part of the initiative, the Little … Continued
