COMPONENT GUIDE

Water meter body / maincase

Wetted housing of a water meter

Houses the drawing-defined metering chamber and pipe connections.

Manufacturing & delivery form
Shaped casting with specified chamber, thread and sealing-face machining.

This is the housing only. Meter accuracy, measuring mechanisms and finished-meter approval are outside this component guide.

Material candidates

UNS C89833 Bismuth tin bronze

A candidate low-lead alternative for specified wetted components.

Candidate for drawing review only. Composition alone does not establish final-product approval; confirm the OEM specification and required evaluation. Zhiren availability is unconfirmed.

UNS C87600 Cast copper-silicon alloy

A candidate for drawing-specified connection or support components.

Candidate for drawing review only. Confirm functional requirements and casting condition; do not substitute wrought copper-silicon or brass grades by family name. Zhiren availability is unconfirmed.

Confirm the drawing, actual duty, material standard and manufacturing condition. Material substitutions require customer approval, and supply scope is agreed after component review.

Component RFQ requirements

Meter chamber: Approved chamber profile, critical dimensions, datum scheme and cover interface.
Wetted material: OEM-approved grade, target market, composition records and required material evaluation.
Pressure & finish: Connection details, sealing faces, cleaning, defect limits and agreed leak-test scope.
Material specification: Alloy grade, governing standard and revision, manufacturing condition and any restricted substances.
Order & acceptance: Approved drawing revision, quantity, blank or machined delivery, inspection criteria and required records.

Start with your drawing, specified alloy and quantity. Include the required delivery condition and acceptance records so the manufacturing and inspection scope can be reviewed.

COMPONENT GUIDE

Water connection body

Meter or valve connection to water pipework

Provides the specified threaded, flanged or sealing transition.

Manufacturing & delivery form
Complex cast body with connection machining; forged or stock-machined alternatives require separate review.

The product name alone does not establish a casting route or potable-water approval.

Component RFQ requirements

Connection system: End types, exact thread or flange standard and assembly dimensions.
Sealing fit: Gasket or O-ring features, engagement, wall sections and pressure duty.
Wetted acceptance: Approved grade, target application, restricted substances and agreed leak/cleanliness criteria.
Material specification: Alloy grade, governing standard and revision, manufacturing condition and any restricted substances.
Order & acceptance: Approved drawing revision, quantity, blank or machined delivery, inspection criteria and required records.
