[0032] Embodiment 1

[0033] Working principle of the control system 2: Press the start button of the PLC controller to send a start signal to start the water pump 1. The pneumatic quick-opening valve Ⅱ9 is closed, and the pneumatic quick-opening valve Ⅰ8 is opened. After the flow rate display of the standard flowmeter is stable, press the comparison button of the PLC controller.

All other manual stop valves are closed. The pneumatic quick-opening valve 8 is opened. After the water flow is normal, press the comparison button on the PLC controller. The pneumatic quick-opening valve Ⅰ8 is closed, and the pneumatic quick-opening valve Ⅱ9 is opened. The control system 2 starts to record data. When the liquid level of the standard water tank 10 reaches the set value, the water pump 1 automatically stops. The control system 2 performs metering comparison on the standard flowmeter, the meter under test, and the standard water tank to obtain the error, and judges whether the meter under test is within the allowable error range according to the error.

[0036] Advantages of the present utility model: Through the control system, metering comparison is performed on the standard flowmeter, the compared meter, and the standard water tank to obtain the error, and it is judged whether the meter under test is within the allowable error range according to the error.
