Common faults of wired water meters

1. Water flow measurement is inaccurate (metering deviation)

The metering function of wired water meters may experience reading deviations due to mechanical wear, ingress of impurities, or aging of electronic components, resulting in a discrepancy between actual water usage and displayed readings. This issue is particularly prominent in areas with long-term use or poor water quality.

2. Display abnormality or no display

Wired water meters typically display water usage data through an electronic screen. If the screen does not display or displays garbled text, it may be caused by low battery power, circuit failure, or poor wiring contact.

3. Signal transmission interruption

The data from wired water meters needs to be transmitted to the backend system through a line. If the line is damaged, poorly connected, or affected by moisture, it may prevent data from being uploaded, affecting remote meter reading and management.

4. Drip or backflow phenomenon

Sometimes, due to damage to the internal seals or aging of the valves in water meters, leakage may occur. In severe cases, this may lead to incorrect water volume recording and even waste of water resources.

5.Mechanical component stuck or jammed

For mechanical and electronic water meters, if mechanical components such as runners and gears are blocked by impurities or lack lubrication, they may become stuck, causing the meter to stop measuring or measure inaccurately.
