RE: Water Meter engineering question
These meters work by spinning a vane in the water stream flow (kind of like a turbine) which then drives a mechanical counter. I have never tested them by applying a suction as you suggest, but it seems quite believable that such an operating mode could cause a lot of air bubbles to be present in the flow stream and therefore cause the meter to read considerably higher than normal. - Paco (Sta Rosa)
