WRc are experts in metering and flow measurement across all water and wastewater applications, from source to tap and back again. Working with our customers, we provide practical and cost effective solutions to address their metering and flow measurement needs.

We are experienced in all technologies from traditional mechanical meters to the latest developments in electronic instruments, automatic meter reading and verification. Our expertise covers both open channel and closed pipe flows.

Our practical knowledge of metering and flow measurement helps clients develop robust and cost effective strategies for metering. Our metering specialists are complemented by experts in economics and regulation giving a broad perspective.

Using our understanding of the performance and limitations of meters, we advise clients on the use of flow data and data quality issues.

WRc offers Meter Training Courses developed in collaboration with UK water utilities which provide an introduction to those working with meters and metering data within the clean water side of the industry. For further information please click here.

Testing

We have a recognised capability for developing and carrying out robust, independent testing against defined requirements for users and suppliers. Our test programmes are used to:

  • support procurement decisions
  • prove novel technology
  • identify best practice
  • support regulatory data.

By using our own test facilities or by carrying out field based testing, we are able to modify to meet customers’ particular requirements.
