Model G15-20A
Gravimetric Method Water Meter Test Bench

Raising the standards of water meter accuracy testing...

Collection and weighing testing method for the
determination of the intrinsic error of indication
of residential water meters according to ISO
4064-2 and OIML R49-2 international standards.
Capable of testing water meters sizes DN15 and
DN20, both of the “traditional” mechanical type
as well as the new generation “static” type water
meters.
Exceeds by far the requirements of testing water
meters under the AWWA C715-18 Standard and
the updated AWWA M6 Manual.
Built-in compensation Mass/Volume based on
the application of the Tanaka equation.
Integrated Water Reservoir for recycling the
testing water, makes it a “plug & play” installa-
tion equipment. No need for further infraestruc-
ture.
Built-in automatic pumping system based on
submersible pump, constant pressure auto-
matic VFD control and elevated constant
head tank.

High accuracy weighing platforms, digitally Automatic PLC control with Touch Screen
integrated to automatic PLC control. HMI.
Capable of accurately testing water metes at
Easy to use, intuitive operation.

GENERAL DIMENSIONS
INSTALLATION AND OPERATION REQUIREMENTS

A minimum available space is required for the installation and operation of

general dimensions of the equipment.

An available 220VAC, 25 Amp Electric Supply is required.

The integrated water reservoir and pumping system makes possible to install
the Model G 15-20 virtually in any place where there is enough available area.
No need for expensive infrastructure or special building construction.

elevated Constant Head Tank provided by IBPCal. See details of this

installation in the Model G 15-20 Operation & Maintenance Manual, or
