This is a flow-through spacer or meter idler as a replacement or for spacing an AWWA standard 1-1/2" or 2" Threaded end displacement, multi-jet type, or Ultrasonic water meter of the dimensions shown below. It can be used to correctly space when pluming and the meter is not yet available, or as a temporary filler when taken out for repair. Note that turbine or compound meters may have different lay lengths, so check with your utility or measure your meter to be sure of the correct length.
