Flow meter error In flow measurement, flow meter error is typically reported by a percentage indicating non-linearity of the device. This can be expressed as either a +/- percentage based on either the full range capacity of the device or as a percentage of the actual indicated flow.

Flow meter error This is the uncertainty all of the time, so as you move away from the full scale capability, the 0.5 gpm error becomes a much larger percentage. At 50 gpm, you are risking a 1% error. At 10 gpm you have a potential 5% error. If the device has an error expressed as a percentage of the actual flow, then ... | Natural_sciences | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki?curid=35337586 | Flow meter error |
