Dumpmeters

Dumpmeters are devices used to measure the volume of liquid waste discharged from a vessel, such as a ship or a tanker, into a receiving facility. They are essential for accurate billing and compliance with environmental regulations. Dumpmeters operate by measuring the flow rate of the liquid as it is pumped out of the vessel. This is typically done using a variety of technologies, including ultrasonic, radar, or mechanical sensors. The data collected by dumpmeters is crucial for determining the volume of waste discharged, which in turn affects the amount of fees or penalties incurred by the vessel operator. They are widely used in maritime and industrial settings to ensure transparency and accountability in waste management practices.
