Dec 1, 2012 · Water utility managers generally agree that water meters, especially mechanical water meters, experience a degradation of accuracy over time. This degradation is a function of several factors, such as wear, water quality, water velocities, throughput volumes, and installation and handling.

This paper presents real field and laboratory data on how several factors may affect the water meter accuracy for both, domestic and industrial type of meters, and different technologies, single jet, multiple jet, oscillating piston, Woltman and Tangential meters.
Revenue & Maintenance Impacts. Found Meter Type and Consumption as leading factors affecting Accuracy, then Brand & Size Found 6% potential meter inaccuracy compared to 1% estimated in NRW study. Tuesday, December 19, 2017LADWP Operating EfficienciesPAGE 17. Draft and commercial in confidence.
The decrease in water consumption (progressive or sudden) is, as explained by Monedero et al. , associated with water meter malfunction—one of the possible causes for apparent losses. Thus, it should be investigated by water utilities in order to mitigate this type of loss.
