Abstract

A water meter test bench assembly that includes a fluid source, a discharge pipe, and check valve assembly, is provided. The fluid source also provides fluid pressure to move fluid through the at least one meter. The discharge pipe is fluidly coupled to a valve and configured to receive the fluid that passes through the at least one meter. The check valve assembly is attached to the discharge pipe and is in fluid communication with the opening of the discharge pipe. The check valve assembly is open when the fluid pressure from the fluid source moves the fluid through the at least one meter, the valve, and acts on the check valve assembly. When the fluid pressure is reduced sufficient to close the check valve assembly, the fluid is stopped from passing through the check valve assembly.
