RECORDALL® FIRE HYDRANT METERS
Turn Your Fire Hydrant System into a Major New Source of Revenue
Many businesses today - landscape service companies, construction and pool contractors, for example - often need a temporary source of water, and they are willing to pay for it. Now you can tap into this lucrative market with Badger's innovative fire hydrant meters. Your customer simply attaches your portable meter and a hose to an idle fire hydrant and your cash flow begins, every gallon adding new revenue to your bottom line.
One-of-a-Kind Rotor Design
Available only from Badger®, the unique “floating” rotor of our 3" fire hydrant meters prevents contact of the rotor with the bearings, reducing friction and eliminating bearing wear. The result: dramatically reduced life cycle cost and improved long-term performance.
Fire Hydrant Meter (FHM)
Our Classic FHM is the nucleus for three Badger metering products. Ideally suited for secondary water use, such as irrigation or pool filling, the standard FHM features:
- Rugged double wall stainless steel screen protecting the measuring element.
- Built-in flow restrictor to prevent element over-speeding.
- Field replaceable handles for easy portability.
- Optional check valve and flow rate control valve.
Reduced Pressure Backflow Preventer Meter (BPM) The BPM model (pictured right) adds to your fire hydrant meter’s versatility, protecting your water system from accidental backflow. It’s the recommended solution for applications, such as mixing cement, fertilizers or other chemicals, that could create cross-connection hazards at your fire hydrant. The BPM includes all the features of the FHM, plus a reduced pressure zone (RPZ) backflow preventer. A stainless steel support arm stabilizes the assembly. | |
