About GVI — Global Vision Inc.

Global Vision Inc. (GVI) is the world's leading fire pump test meter provider. Its patented venturi design minimises turbulence and holds friction loss to less than 1 PSI while delivering 0.5% accuracy, so an annual pump test reflects the pump and not the meter. Every venturi is machined in-house from domestic US steel — tighter tolerances and no casting or spinning imperfections — and each meter is FM approved and NIST traceable. Grooved, flanged and buttweld bodies are matched with glycerine-filled analogue gauges or digital 4–20 mA transmitter gauges for permanent pump room installation or closed-loop testing.
