Accurate Metering of Water Production Flows
Course Length: 1 Hour | 0.1 CEU*
This eLearning course provides students with the necessary information to effectively manage production flowmeters, ensuring accurate production data for their operations and the annual water audit.
This is the second course in an AWWA's series on Controlling Non-Revenue Water in Drinking Water Utilities.
Objectives
- Identify those water flows that are classified as production flows.
- Recognize the critical importance of accurate production flow data to water accountability.
- Distinguish the primary types of production flowmeters used in drinking water supplies.
- Recall the basic ways to test production flowmeter performance and calculate the accuracy rating from typical testing data.
- Recognize that production flowmeters are important assets that must be maintained, repaired, and replaced on a regular basis as part of good asset management.
- Tabulate and analyze production flowmeter data to observe flow trends and identify data errors and data gaps.
Description
Participants will understand the crucial role of accurately metering production flows, not only for effective water supply management but also for providing precise data for the annual water audit. As the largest volumes of water measured in a utility, production flows are tracked by the biggest flowmeters in the system. Reliable management of these assets is essential for generating accurate data, and this course offers comprehensive guidance on how to achieve this.
This course includes the following modules:
Module 1: The Importance of Accurate Production Flow Data.
Module 2: Effective Management of Water Production Flowmeters.
Module 3: Managing Production Flow Data Accurately.
This course is non-refundable.
