McCrometer Flexible to Changing Monitoring Needs
The town of Walden lies 20 miles from the Wyoming border in Colorado near Steamboat Springs. Their water treatment plant now has a requirement to measure finished water because their original pump station design did not include a flow meter. The waste treatment plant also has limited space and a need for high accuracy flow measurement system which makes the installation of a flow meter difficult. And, of course, the local government intends to minimize both instillation and maintenance costs. Technology has led McCrometer to create a system that evaluates multiple flow measurement options suited for municipal water systems. It has high accuracy, flexible installation requirements and versatile capabilities with a design that includes a self-conditioning cone within the meter. This new invention was ideal for the town’s water plant, creating an additional bonus of having the ability to measure finished water effluent as well. A SCADA system program has been programmed along with the flow meters for easy online readings.
