Interactive FAQ
What is the difference between flow rate and delta T?
Flow rate is the volume of water passing through the meter per minute, while delta T is the difference between the inlet and outlet temperatures.
How do I interpret the results?
The result is the recommended meter size in millimeters. This is the diameter of the meter that should be used for your specific flow rate and temperature difference.
