What happens if you put a magnet on a water meter?

A neodymium magnet influences the magnetic clutch of the dry dial water meter, causing a complete stop of its measurement despite flowing water (Figure 3).

Can a water meter run backwards?

One cause is low pressure. Low pressure in the public water system is siginifcantly more common than may be expected. Both of these scenarios can cause the water to flow backwards simply because there isn’t enough pressure to actually push it in the right direction.

Will a strong magnet stop a water meter?

Magnets have strong attraction forces and can damage sensitive devices such as electricity meters, water meters. We recommend that you work away from any meter or any device that may be adversely affected by magnetic field, especially if you need to use Neodymium magnets.

Why is my water consumption so high?

How to stop water meters with magnets?

With the help of neodymium magnets, it is possible to stop water meters, electric and even gas meters. Counters differ in the principle of operation, design and degree of protection against extraneous interference. Thus, water meters according to the principle of operation are divided into tachometric, which can be wet and dry, and ultrasonic.

What should I do if my electric meter is not working?
