Short title - Definition. 1  Unlike the long title, which precedes the preamble and enacting formula, and thus sits outside the main body of text, the short title for modern legislation is explicitly defined by a specific section, typically at the very end or very beginning of the main text.
We have Pulse-Output Water Meters that have a pulse output that can be read remotely. For each unit of water that flows by the meter produces an electrical pulse that can be measured from a distance. The total water use can always be read on the face of the meter as well - as a standalone device.
Understanding your mechanical water meter. The mechanical water meters measure water use in cubic feet (one cubic foot equals 7.48 gallons). Tucson Water calculates water usage based on hundreds of cubic feet (Ccf) or per 748 gallons. To read your water meter, first look to see if the meter register has an analog (dial) or digital display. How to read the analog display. Analog displays use straight-reading dials which are read the same way you read your vehicle odometer. The last two digits on the meter dial are dropped when the meter is read. In the example at upper right, the meter reads 9 CCFs.
