Flowmetering Inserts

Accurate bubbler measurement for temporary monitoring sites – with no manhole entry.


Flowmetering InsertsTeledyne ISCO Flowmetering Inserts provide a quick and accurate means of measuring and recording flow in round sewer pipes. Their unique design allows you to install the metering inserts from ground level, eliminating the costs and hazards of manhole entry. 

The metering inserts are designed for use with the Teledyne ISCO 730, Signature Portable Bubbler, and 42​30 bubbler flowmeters. They are ideal for short-term (a few hours) or long-term (several weeks) flow measurement studies. 
​
Teledyne ISCO Flowmetering Inserts allow you to accurately measure flow from 1 to 640 GPM in pipes from 6 inch to 12 inch diameter, in manholes up to 16 feet deep.
