Venturi Type Fire Pump Test Meter Looking for a reliable, accurate, and FM Approved Venturi fire pump test meter for your fire protection system? This Venturi Type Fire Pump Test Meter, available in sizes from 50mm to 300mm (2″ to 12″), is designed to measure the flow rate of water during fire pump testing with precision and durability. Built with carbon steel and tested to high-pressure ratings, this flow meter is engineered to meet industry standards for performance and safety.
Product Overview
A Venturi fire pump test meter is a critical component in fire protection systems, providing accurate measurement of pump output without discharging water to waste. It works using the Venturi principle, which creates a pressure differential as water flows through a narrowed section, allowing precise flow rate calculations. This meter ensures fire pump efficiency and compliance with regulatory testing requirements.
