Description Part of Unfunded Project #84. Replacement of (1) 12-inch, (2) 20-inch, (3) 30-inch, and (2) 36-inch magnetic flow meters at the Water Treatment Plant. Total Project Cost: $550,000

Justification Flow meters are used to control unit operations of the water treatment system. Magnetic flowmeters are currently installed to control the softeners, chlorine contact tanks, and high service pumps to the Emerald, Rochester, and Plant Service Water transmission lines. The existing magnetic flowmeters are at end-of-life and are malfunctioning. Operations and maintenance teams have developed work around to avoid the costly replacements. These work arounds are beginning to fail as well. Therefore replacement is necessary with new equipment more applicable to the application.
