Abstract
The device for connecting and supporting a water-meter (1) comprises a water-inlet pipe (2) and a water-outlet pipe (3) secured in a support (8). The support comprises a stationary seat (9) in which are mounted the water-inlet pipe (2) and the water-outlet pipe (3). The seat carries a plate (10) comprising two conduits (11, 12) designed to be connected to inlet (4) and outlet (5)-apertures on the meter (1). The plate (10) is mounted to rotate upon seat (9) about an axis (X-X') for the purpose of opening up or shutting off the flow of water, or for testing the meter.
