Case study Solution:
Operators determined that eight metering locations were needed around the city, requiring an accurate and reliable flow metering solution. After confirming that electromagnetic meters were the best fit for reliability, City of Geneva operators committed to McCrometer’s FPI Mag. Designed as an alternative to full-bore meters, the FPI Mag provided full-profile flow measurement at a fraction of the cost for a full-bore meter, an instrument that often requires dewatering pipelines and shutdowns. The FPI Mag excelled in Geneva’s need to monitor leak detection and reduce non-revenue water.
Case study Result:
The Geneva Water Works Department concluded that McCrometer’s full-profile insertion flow meters met their reliability and bi-directional requirements while satisfying budget needs and avoiding interruptions to facility operations. All eight FPI Mag’s were installed in minimal time without having to break ground, helping Geneva to achieve their goal in transitioning to a metered billing system. As a result, Geneva anticipates cost savings of 8%-12% per year as a direct contribution to the FPI Mag!
Case study Product:
The Hach FPI Mag is an insertion-style electromagnetic flow meter designed for easy installation without service interruption. Ideal for water and wastewater applications, it delivers accurate, bi-directional flow measurement—even in challenging conditions. Built for long-term performance, the FPI Mag supports water loss control, district metering, and system optimization, making it the smart choice for municipalities seeking BABA-compliant, high-accuracy solutions.
