Plant Effluent Flowmeter

Final Effluent Flowmeter Project – The project provides T-TSA a new 18” magnetic flowmeter that improves flow measurement and accuracy to within 0.5% of actual flow. The flowmeter measures, indicates, and transmits the plant effluent flow based on Faraday’s Law, utilizing the principle of electromagnetic induction from a full pipe. This flowmeter will replace the existing exterior clamping flow meter to ensure T-TSA can continue to meet the California Regional Water Quality Control Board’s monitoring and reporting program requirements for total daily flow of effluent to the disposal site. Other improvements include new piping, supports, and a dismantling joint to aid staff during maintenance of the equipment.
