Description
The Aavad Instrument Model AMAG-R Borewell Digital Water Meter is designed specifically to solve this installation challenge. The system combines a high-accuracy electromagnetic flow meter with a remote-mounted 16 × 4 LCD display connected through a 5-meter cable, allowing operators to monitor flow data from a convenient location while the sensing unit remains installed near the borewell discharge line.
Borewell installations often present a practical challenge for flow measurement. In many systems, the flow meter is installed on the submersible pump discharge pipeline, inside a pump house, underground chamber, or below-ground pit where it is difficult to access for routine monitoring. Reading the totalized flow or instantaneous flow rate directly from the transmitter can therefore become inconvenient, especially for operators responsible for daily water consumption records.
Operating on Faraday’s Law of Electromagnetic Induction, the AMAG-R measures the flow of electrically conductive liquids without moving parts, ensuring reliable performance with minimal maintenance. The meter offers ±0.5% of reading accuracy, a PTFE-lined measuring tube, SS316L electrodes, and a corrosion-resistant stainless steel flanged connection, making it suitable for borewell water that may contain dissolved minerals.
Available in sizes from 15 mm to 250 mm, the meter should be selected based on the expected flow rate of the submersible pump rather than pipe diameter alone. Proper sizing helps maintain measurement accuracy across the operating range and supports effective water auditing, groundwater management, pump performance evaluation, and utility monitoring.
The digital transmitter supports 4–20 mA, pulse output, and RS485 (Modbus RTU) communication for integration with PLCs, SCADA systems, and industrial automation platforms. Each instrument is supplied with a NABL-accredited calibration certificate to provide traceable measurement confidence.

FAQs
1. What is a Borewell Digital Water Meter?
A Borewell Digital Water Meter is an electromagnetic flow meter designed to accurately measure water pumped from borewells. It displays both the instantaneous flow rate and the cumulative (totalized) water consumption on a digital display, making it ideal for groundwater monitoring, irrigation systems, industrial water management, and borewell applications.
2. Why is a Remote Display useful for Borewell installations?
In most borewell installations, the flow meter is mounted inside a pit or close to the submersible pump discharge line, making direct access difficult. A remote LCD display allows operators to conveniently view the flow rate and totalizer from an accessible location without entering the pit, improving safety and simplifying routine monitoring.
3. How far can the Display be mounted?
The standard AMAG-R Borewell Digital Water Meter is supplied with a 5-meter cable between the electromagnetic flow meter and the remote LCD display. Custom cable lengths may also be available for specific installation requirements.
4. How should I choose the correct Meter size?
The correct flow meter size should be selected primarily according to the expected flow rate of the submersible pump and then verified against the pipeline diameter. Proper sizing ensures optimum flow velocity, maximum measurement accuracy, and reliable performance throughout the meter’s operating range.
5. Can this Meter measure Groundwater?
Yes. The AMAG-R Borewell Digital Water Meter is specifically designed to measure electrically conductive water, including groundwater extracted from borewells. It is suitable for groundwater monitoring, agricultural irrigation, industrial water management, and water resource applications.
6. Does the Meter have moving parts?
No. The AMAG-R uses the electromagnetic flow measurement principle, which contains no moving parts inside the flow tube. This results in low maintenance, minimal wear, no pressure loss due to mechanical components, and excellent long-term measurement reliability.
7. Can it connect to PLC or SCADA systems?
Yes. The AMAG-R Borewell Digital Water Meter supports 4–20 mA analog output, Pulse output, and RS485 (Modbus RTU) communication, enabling seamless integration with PLC, SCADA, DCS, telemetry systems, and industrial automation platforms for real-time flow monitoring and data acquisition.
