UtilityPal - Polymer Piston Water Meter - 15mm
 
The UtilityPal Polymer Piston Water Meter 15mm is a high-accuracy volumetric meter designed for the measurement of cold potable water in residential, commercial, and municipal applications.
 
Manufactured with a UV-stabilised, glass-reinforced polymer body, the meter offers excellent durability, corrosion resistance, and long-term accuracy. It is fitted with an internal strainer, non-return valve, and a sealed wet-dial counter with a clear straight-reading display registering in cubic metres (m³).
The meter is pulse-ready, making it ideal for integration with AMR / AMI systems and smart metering platforms.
