Certified Water Flowmeter List

Flowmeters on the Certified Water Flowmeter List have been certified by their manufacturers to comply with Kansas’ specifications for water flowmeters in K.A.R. 5-1-4. These flowmeters are acceptable to use when the chief engineer requires a water flowmeter pursuant to K.A.R. 5-1-7. In addition, if the chief engineer requires a water flowmeter, the flowmeter must be installed as specified in K.A.R. 5-1-6 and be maintained as specified in K.A.R. 5-1-8 and 5-1-9.

Certification for a water flowmeter model does not constitute endorsement by the chief engineer, the Division of Water Resources, nor the Kansas Department of Agriculture.  The following form should be used for the Certification of Water Flowmeters

Adding New Meters to the List

Due to budget and staff reductions, delays performing flowmeter certification reviews for a water flowmeter vendor should be expected.
