    Description

    This flow meter is about 20 years old and is in very good working condition.  It comes with every available accessory including five transducers and a pipe wall thickness gauge and all the index bars and mounting straps you will ever need.
    Because it is 20 years old there are a couple of disadvantages.  For example the meter's interface menu could be larger and the menus a little easier to navigate.  Originally the download process was done through a command prompt which was kind of cumbersome.  But
    in 2010 Siemens released interface software called "Si-Ware" that made it super easy, however
    with a baud rate of 9600, depending on the amount of data, it can take a couple of minutes.
    The up side is the meter itself is in
    protective case and
    is very, very rugged.
    Some of the other flow meters I have used are so sexy I don't like leaving them in a mechanical room over night.
    And while
    the menus are a little
    cumbersome
    , they are very versatile.  Most importantly the Siemens tech support is amazing - and I mean really amazing - they really know their stuff and are very supportive.
    Of all the tools and instruments I have owned and/or used, and I have used hundreds, including other makes and models of flow meters, this flow meter has been the most dependable and useful.
