  • Publication number: 20250198827
    Abstract: This technology introduces a portable, mobile testing system designed to evaluate the accuracy of fluid flow meters directly at their installation sites, eliminating the need to remove meters for testing and saving time and resources. The system features an improved drain line system that ensures quick and complete removal of test fluid after testing is finished, minimizing cleanup and environmental impact. It also automates the testing process, evaluating the flow meter at various flow rates and collecting comprehensive performance data. This data is then recorded and securely transferred to a centralized database for analysis, reporting, and historical tracking. This portable system offers a convenient and efficient solution for on-site flow meter testing, improving accuracy and streamlining maintenance processes.

  • Patent number: 12163822
    Abstract: A platform configured for evaluating metering technologies and generating meter profiles using information derived from a plurality of meters retrieved from a plurality of environments. The platform may include a centralized data storage system in communication with a fluid meter test bench system. A computing device automatically controls fluid meter test bench system to measure the accuracy of fluid meters and transfers meter data to at least one of the centralized data storage system or a local data silo in communication with the centralized data storage system. Exemplary meter data includes meter type data, meter test data and meter environmental data. Meter environmental data may comprise meter install location and at least one of fluid quality data or fluid meter mounting position. The platform is configured to provide a meter profile for each meter tested based at least in part on the meter data and the test system data.

  • Patent number: 11181415
    Abstract: Embodiments of the disclosed inventions relate to a platform configured for evaluating and profiling metering technologies such as water meters using information derived from a plurality of fluid meter test systems deployed in a plurality of environments and in communication with a centralized data storage system. The inventions teach the establishment of an A Posteriori Database (APD) using “laboratory data” and “field data” derived from user entries and meter tests using a network of certified fluid meter test benches where the field data is based on evaluations of meters removed from a known metering environment.
