RecordALL — Commercial & Industrial Water Meters

By line size and demand profile. The Disc Series nutating-disc meters (5/8–2 in) suit low-to-medium, intermittent flow and read accurately down to a trickle. The Turbo Series floating-rotor turbine meters (1-1/2–12 in) suit consistent medium-to-high flow with low pressure loss. The Compound Series (2–6 in) is for facilities that swing between very low and very high demand — it meters both accurately in one body. The Fire Series (3–12 in) is the UL/FM fire-service meter for protection mains. Tell us your normal and peak flow and the line size and we size it.

Each family meets the matching AWWA standard and is certified lead-free. Disc meets AWWA C700 (lead-free bronze) and C710 (engineered polymer); Turbo meets AWWA C701 Class II; Compound meets AWWA C702; Fire Series meets AWWA C703 and is UL Certified and FM 1044 approved for fire service. All comply with the lead-free provisions of the Safe Drinking Water Act and are certified to NSF/ANSI/CAN 61 & 372, carrying the NSF-61 mark on the housing. Disc accuracy is held to AWWA limits (98.5–101.5% over the normal range, 95% minimum at low test flow).

The standard read-out is a sealed, tamper-resistant mechanical RCDL sweep-hand totalizer with a six-wheel odometer and a leak-detecting flow finder. For electronic read and remote output, the HR-E LCD encoder gives an encoded LCD display (with scaled-pulse and 4-20 mA HR-LCD variants); the ER-6 / ER-9 / ER-420 family adds resettable rate-and-total counters with scaled pulse or a 4-20 mA loop; PFT pulse and PFT-420 4-20 mA transmitters feed a PLC, SCADA, or DCS, while the PEPT-1 / EPT-1XP transmitters add high-resolution unscaled pulse (21 pulses per revolution) off Disc and OP meters for fine batching and resolution; and the PC-200 process controller adds on-board batch and relay control. For a vault, inside a building, or a hard-to-reach spot, the HR-RED remote display reads an HR-E encoder at a distance (up to nine digits, battery-powered, tap-to-wake). Any register or encoder lifts off without disrupting water service, and can be meter-mounted or remote.

AquaCUE is the cloud-hosted customizable software interface. An encoded signal is transmitted via an endpoint/transponder through normal local cell towers, and feeds into the secure cloud and lands as an update in your web-based software interface. Readings are stored in 15-minute increments and uploaded once or twice per day — no fixed network or drive-by route to build. You get consumption, leak, tamper, and reverse-flow alerts and billing-grade data on the AquaCUE dashboard and EyeOnWater smart-device app.

When a site swings between very low and very high demand — hospitals, universities, apartment complexes, and process plants that idle overnight and peak by day. A turbine alone under-registers the low-flow tail; the Compound combines a positive-displacement disc chamber for low flow and a turbine chamber for high flow in one meter. Badger’s patented crossover holds accuracy through the transition without a trigger valve, so there is no valve to stick or maintain.

Both are UL Certified / FM 1044 fire-service meters on the floating-rotor turbine with an integral fire-service strainer, built to AWWA C703 in an epoxy-coated ductile-iron body. The FSMA is a single main meter for a line dedicated to fire protection (or a multi-use main). The FSAA assembly adds a 2 in turbine bypass meter and a check valve, so it captures low-volume domestic use, leakage, or misuse on the fire main for billing while still passing full fire flow. Choose FSAA when the fire main also carries everyday domestic service; FSMA when it is fire-only.

A strainer protects the measuring element from grit and debris. The Turbo carries an integral strainer as standard on the 1-1/2 in size and as an option on 2–4 in; external plate strainers (bronze NSF, steel, or UL-FM for fire service) cover 2–12 in. On every family the register or encoder and the unitized measuring element lift out for service or recalibration without removing the meter housing from the line, which keeps the spool in place and downtime short.

RecordALL is a regional Badger Meter line — Prater Technical is the authorized distributor for Northern and Central New Jersey and New York, and RecordALL webstore sales are within that territory. Unit prices for select RecordALL meters and accessories are published on our webstore; we spec the meter, register, external display, controller and/or signal processors, and remote AMI/AMR cloud-based AquaCUE service to your application, and offer meter programming and commissioning as an optional, quoted service. Stock items ship from our Brooklyn warehouse for same/next-day shipment, and lead-time items drop-ship from Badger; Prater is the vendor of record and invoices.
