   Apr 30, 2023 · As measure-ment errors for ageing meters (MJ-2 and MJ-3) are similar at medium and high flow rates, age-ing of meters cannot be described by linear degradation. This study showed that ageing and water consumption profiles have a great impact on water meter performance.

   Apparent losses are caused by water meter inaccuracies, illegal consumption, and data handling errors whereas real losses are associated with leakage, pipe bursts and over-flow from storage tanks. In well managed WSSs, apparent losses mainly result from inaccura-cies of water meters.

   Does the age of water meter affect the accuracy of water meters?

   • The results of the test show that not only the age of water meters diminishes their recording capability, but also the way customers use water affects the readings (i.e., less accuracy at low flow v. better accuracy at high flow). This additional finding complicated the study and compelled an investigation into the way customers use water.

   Should a 16 year old water meter be replaced?

   • Despite the fact that the accuracy of a 16 year-old residential water meter is estimated at 0.992, replacement at this age is economically justifiable. The justification for replacement lingers on the prevention of further losses and to meter the water flow the Agency incurs in the cost of buying and installing water meters.

   Should water meter accuracy be a priority for utility managers?

   • Water meter accuracy is a high priority for utility managers because, as mechanical devices, water meters are subject to wear. Wear contributes to meter accuracy degradation, meaning that the water meters become less efficient for measuring flow and will generally underregister the actual throughput.
