Product Description
The WM-NLC Series Lead Free Brass multi-jet water meter is excellent for residential water metering. It uses the time proven multi-jet principle to measure flow totals.
The gear train drives the register totalizer dials. These water meters are BPA free and ARE NSF 61/372 Annex G CERTIFIED to meet lead free regulations. They are also designed to meet the AWWA C708 Standards.
These meters are frequently used as a low cost solution for residential water measuring. This product is a rare example of when inexpensive doesn't equal "cheap"! It is one of the least expensive water meters available without sacrificing accuracy or durability.

Pulse Output
These meters are equipped for an optional pulse output in case you want to send the data to a remote display, wireless transceiver, or other control device. What is Pulse Output?
The 1/2", 3/4" and 1" meters can have 10 pulses per gallon, 1 pulse per gallon, 1 pulse per 10 gallons, or 1 pulse per 100 gallons.
The 1 1/2" & 2" meters can have 1 pulse per gallon, 1 pulse per 10 gallons, or 1 pulse per 100 gallons.
Note: The small magnet on one of the red dials comes on every meter. The pulse output switch shown here is sold separately. If you order the meter without a pulse output switch, the magnet will be on the dials shown in bold above. This cannot be changed in the field.

Installation Notes:
All meters come with union fittings and must be installed horizontally with the face up.
Once the adapter ends are installed on the upstream and downstream pipes, the meter is installed by tightening the collar nuts onto the inlet and outlet of the meter. These "true-union" fittings then allow the meter to be easily rotated to the proper orientation (face up), or removed for cleaning, repair, or replacement.
IMPORTANT!
These meter threads look practically identical to the NPT adapter threads BUT THEY ARE NOT!
Trying to install the meter without the adapter will damage the pipe's threads, the meter's threads, or BOTH!
