Whitepaper: Independent Accuracy Verification

Why Download This Whitepaper?

Property managers, owners, and engineers often ask: How accurate are clamp-on submeters in real-world conditions?

This independent study provides detailed lab and field data that show how SimpleSUB performs across a range of pipe types, flow rates, and environments.

Inside, You’ll Get:

• Independent lab results comparing SimpleSUB i1 and x1 to a 0.25% magnetic flow reference standard. The whitepaper includes side-by-side results demonstrating consistent accuracy across multiple flow rates.
• Performance across all pipe types and diameters (½″, ¾″, 1″ in copper and PEX). Results show the accuracy specification holds steady even when material and installation variables change.
• Real-world field validation from a multi-month comparison against a utility-grade meter. The study tracks how SimpleSUB performs under everyday water usage and environmental factors.
• Installation and reliability insights. Learn best practices to achieve consistent readings and avoid the most common installation mistakes.
• Key takeaways on why clamp-on ultrasonic submeters offer a practical, low-impact approach to measuring water flow accurately—without the need to cut pipes or disrupt service.

Who Should Read It

This whitepaper is ideal for anyone evaluating water submetering technologies, including:

• Property managers looking to understand how measurement accuracy affects operational decisions
• Owners and operators exploring modern approaches to flow measurement
• Engineers and consultants seeking verified data to support design specifications
• Developers and facilities teams comparing alternatives for retrofit or new construction

Highlights from the Whitepaper

Independent testing confirmed SimpleSUB’s accuracy within ±5% across all pipe sizes and materials. Whether installed on copper or PEX, ½″ or 1″, results remained consistent across conditions.

Because SimpleSUB devices mount externally, installation is simple—no cutting pipes or shutting off water. This allows quick deployment and reliable ongoing performance.

Field studies further showed that SimpleSUB readings closely tracked with reference meters over multiple months, validating the consistency of its ultrasonic measurement technology under varied real-world conditions.

With long-life batteries, built-in diagnostics, and no moving parts, SimpleSUB submeters are designed for durable, low-maintenance performance.
