Explanations of the designations:
What does Q3 mean?
The continuous flow rate or nominal flow rate indicates how many m³ (cubic metres) of water can flow through a water meter per hour during normal operation. On newer water meters, the value is given as the continuous flow rate (Q3). Older water meters still show the nominal flow rate (Qn).
What does DN mean?
The nominal diameter DN (French: Diamètre Nominal), often also referred to as the nominal diameter, is the approximate inner diameter of a pipe, hose or fitting. The dimensions of the associated connections of a fitting, such as flanges and sockets, are also determined by the nominal diameter. Fittings, pipes and valves with the same nominal diameter are compatible.
