A flowmeter is provided with a solid-state sensor technology for increasing the accuracy and efficiency of fluid flow monitoring and leak detection in the irrigation industry and other cost-sensitive flow-critical applications. The device can monitor and detect usage of fluids such as water more accurately and economically than presently possible to help eliminate waste and ensure correct billing. Measurement can be over an optimized narrow range or can be automatically switched to cover consecutive ranges from leakage to gross fluid conduit faults. With its minimal component count, ease of assembly, independence from the specifics of its housing, low maintenance needs, and its interchangeability this device can serve a wide range of metering needs from low end leak monitoring to standard flow measurement. |
