Yes. Meters are factory tested and calibrated to be within accepted standards of accuracy. Moreover, the utility must maintain its meters within those accuracy standards specified in the Utility Tariffs.

When used correctly, peak flow meters are excellent tools that reflect the state of the child's asthma - but you need to treat the device with respect. Keep it clean, use it as directed, check it frequently for damage, and it will give accurate measurements. However, remember that symptoms are just as important as numbers. In some cases, children can get a good peak flow "score" even when they are having symptoms. If that's the case, make a note of the numbers and talk to your doctor.

Pocket size lamp meters provide a comparative reading, not an absolute reading. They are helpful when comparing original readings to current readings. Each manufacturer calibrates their meter to give you a reading relative to the original calibration. Therefore, each brand will give you different readings. UV meters only read from a small portion of the spectrum of UV light. Different lamp manufacturers design their lamps to emit UV rays from a particular section of the spectrum.

Yes. The meter pulse relay can be used for any pulse-initiating meter until other Eka Systems’ products become available. The meter pulse relay will easily adapt to gas and steam meters. We expect our gas submeters to become available in Spring 2003, and our water submeters to become available in Fall 2003. These components, when available will fully integrate into our network.

There have been relatively few problems with the meters. In fact, the meters in homes probably under read by 3%. This is an allowable standard and is factored in when setting the rates for water consumption.

long as the wood is not frozen solid and remains conductive, a pin-type meter will give reliable readings. However, most instrumentation, unless specifically designed for extreme weather conditions, will not work well in constant sub-freezing temperatures.

Yes, all the water connections are required to be fitted with meters. However, some of the domestic connections falling in Rural Areas, Slums Rehabilitation Colonies, Janata flats etc are sanctioned without meters.

The City owns meters ranging from 5/8" through 4". Meters larger than 4" and all fire line meters are owned by the customer.

We typically field test meters 3" and larger every two years for high consumption users; every three to four years for small water users. Meters 1-1/2" and 2" are tested every five years if they are between 15 - 20 years old. Newer meters are tested every ten years.

Generally, the water meter nearest to your property is your water meter. To verify this, turn on a spigot inside your house or at the outside hose bib. While the water is running, go out to the water meters and observe which one is registering (i.e., the meter register is changing numbers or the leak detector is spinning).

To provide a more equitable system, Council was concerned that smaller families, especially seniors and those on fixed incomes, were subsidizing large families and the commercial sector.

The Indiana-American Water Company reads the meters and bills the customer each month. This is a private company, and for information and questions you may call them at 1-800-492-8373.

For the remainder of the year bills are calculated based on estimates. These estimates are arrived at by taking an average of the consumption of previous bills. Customers are encouraged to phone in their meter reading to 786-1739. On the water bill there is a section at the bottom called "important notes", this will give the date as to when the readings should be phoned in.

One of the important outcomes of the programme is the efficient use of freshwater. To achieve efficient use it is crucial to gain an insight into the actual amounts of water used by major water users, such as irrigators, hydroelectricity companies, and city and town water supplies. The programme proposes to investigate the use of methods to measure the use of water so that we have consistent data around the country.

We require meters to measure water use, establish equity in paying for water used by each service, and to encourage water conservation.

Water meters will increasingly be essential for many reasons. We will all benefit from knowing how much water can safely be abstracted from aquifers. To enable adequate management of an aquifer we need to know how much water is going into and being abstracted from the system. The more we know about inflows and outflows the more we can reliably ensure that environmental requirements are met and enable abstractors to have a fair system of access to the available water.

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are not usually eligible for separate meters, because they are not recognized as separate, independent dwelling units. An ADU is essentially an accessory use to a single-family dwelling as determined in the Land Use Code. However, ADUs can have separate electrical service as long as the ADU was established by permit, and one of the units is owner-occupied. If the property sells and/or the ADU is discontinued, it may be necessary to reconsolidate the service.

OneTouch Diabetes Management Software is compatible with the entire family of OneTouch® Meters (with data port).

All Sierra flow meters are calibrated with N2 unless otherwise specified. The reason is the “K-Factor” for other gases is nearly linear when one goes from N2 to almost any other gas. Other gases scale the signal and generate a slight offset. For each type of gas, this effect can be calculated and compensated by using a relatively simple "K-Factor".

Sierra mass flow systems without the FM approval are not designed for use in hazardous or explosive environments. Do not confuse a “hazardous environment” with flowing gas inside a closed system, such as your plumbing, into pressure and flow measuring instruments. Customers regularly use the 800 series flow meters with flammable gases such as CH4, C2H6, C3H8, and H2 that is plumbed in accordance with proper safety measures.

A presumptive diagnosis of PDD is based on historical information, clinical signs, and radiographic evidence of proventricular dilatation or dysfunction. Confirming that a living bird has PDD is difficult. Biopsy of the ventriculus or proventriculus can be used to diagnose the disease. However, obtaining a biopsy sample from these organs is invasive and dangerous. In some birds, biopsy of the crop can be used to diagnose the disease. - Dr Branson W.

In Dr. Biller's study (sometimes referred to as "the Ohio study"), Dr. Biller was able to diagnose cats at 10 months of age with 98% accuracy (as determined by eventual histopathology exams after natural death or euthanasia). Given the many variables in real-world testing (the skill, training and experience of the sonographer; the ultrasound equipment; etc.), my personal opinion is that the real-world accuracy will be somewhat lower -- perhaps in the 90% to 95% range.

Celebheights tries to build an accurate database, but you cannot rely on simply using official resumes or actors own declarations of their height, because invariably a good number might embellish the truth. Height in many cases is a best estimate. Even if you meet a star, your own estimate might be off, especially if you don't get within a couple of feet and the difference in your heights is large or you're judging on the street where subtle pavement differences can cause confusion.

AMITemp? and AMITemp? Wearables may be the most accurate thermometers ever developed. These Precision Phase Change (PPC), dot-matrix thermometers have been proven under clinical conditions and meet stringent ASTM accuracy requirements. Normal oral temperature will range from 97? F to 99? F and 36.5? C to 37.5? C.

Our lovable lab geeks tell us that accuracy exceeds 99% for urine-based testing. Saliva tests are a bit less accurate than the urine-based tests, but still VERY close. If it makes you feel better, our kits are currently being used by businesses, medical clinics, and law enforcement officials across the country and they're... uh... picky.

Activity recommendations in terms of daily minutes of physical activity for youth (Corbin & Pangrazi, 2004) and adults (USDHHS, 2000) have created an interest in accurately measuring personal movement. The pedometer is an objective activity measuring instrument that has been studied by a number of researchers. A recent study (Crouter, et al., 2003) evaluated the validity of 10 different electronic pedometers and found them to be "most accurate". A similar study (Schneider et al.

Yes. In a multicenter clinical study this test service, using blood from a finger stick obtained by non-medically trained participants, was proven to be greater than 99% accurate compared to a blood sample drawn by a medical professional and tested using current test methods. In this clinical trial approximately 4% of study participants were unable to collect enough sample to begin testing, and an additional 3% were unable to collect enough sample to receive a conclusive result.

The Daikon system examines the values computed during the target program's execution, looking for patterns and relationships among those values. There are two potential problems: missing properties (false negatives), and spurious properties (false positives). False negatives are inevitable, because every tool has a grammar that limits what it can express. Daikon has a relatively simple and broadly applicable grammar.
