We offer therd end conection water meter.
Instead of taking a pill you are welcome to read the american waterworks association standards c700 or c708 or their m-5 manual on water meter installation but here it is in nutshell. Water meter body sizing nomenclature historically lists the measuring chamber and internal diameterbore size as the first number and the pipe size the meter is installed on, as the second number in the sizing. For instance a 58”x34” meter has a 58” measuring chamber and 58” bore size and is installed on a ¾” pipe. Click here to view a chart with more details.
while all this may seem confusing, through personal experience a ½” external straight thread will take a ¾” internal pipe thread connection. ¾” external straight thread will take a 1” internal pipe thread connection and 1” external straight thread will take a 1.5” internal pipe thread connection. If you don’t believe me you can make a coupling tower of a ½”,34” and 1” coupling sets. I find this useful when I have recently been trying to explain this issue to customers.
as you note from the chart 1.5” and 2” water meters are available in both internal pipe thread and two bolt oval flanged versions. Due to the weight of these meters the internal pipe thread is thought to be more stable on the pipe and the 2 bolt oval flange is for ease of retrofit installation.
