ABSTRACT:
A meter register includes a sealed register body having a face portion and a body that are coupled to form an internal cavity. The internal cavity includes a rotatble member, a power source and a visual display. A microprocessor is included that coacts with the power source and the rotatable member to determine a volume flow andlor a flow rate through the meter register. The visual display shows a volume of flew measured by the register corresponding to rotations of rotatable members. A detection switch is included for detecting tampering with said register actuating a signal when the register has been tampered with.
