How to Identify Your HCS048B Water Flow Meter
You can identify your HCS048B Water Flow Meter by checking the model name on the product label and the inlet connector / tap connector configuration. No disassembly or tools are required.
Does the Version Affect Usage?

Both versions provide the same:
- FLOW RATE measurement
- TODAY usage
- LAST usage
