• Inside the measuring chamber, there’s often a rotating impeller, turbine, or piston that is activated by the flow of water passing through the meter.
• Measurement : As water flows through the meter, the impeller, turbine, or piston rotates. This movement is converts into a measurement of volume by gears or other mechanical components within the meter.
• The volume of water passing through the meter is usually records  depends on the unit of measurement uses.
• Readout : The measurement records by the water meter is displays on a dial,  digital readout locates on the  meter.
• This allows utility companies, property owners, or occupants to monitor water usage over a specific period.
