MCERTS scheme

The installation of a new ABB WaterMaster electromagnetic flowmeter is helping energy company RWE npower fulfil its MCERTS commitment.

The WaterMaster was one of the first flowmeters to be awarded a Class 1 MCERTS conformity certificate for closed pipe flow measurement.

MCERTS is the Environment Agency's certification scheme to ensure that companies have effective measures in place to monitor effluent flow.

RWE npower is also taking the opportunity to upgrade its data logging facilities with the addition of a ScreenMaster videographic recorder from ABB.

ABB can provide additional support in the form of annual verification services, including verification of installed WaterMasters utilising VeriMaster verification tools. This can assist with demonstrating an ongoing robust metering regime in preparation for possible quality management system (QMS) audits in the future.
