Intelligent Meter

OVERVIEW

The intelligent Water Meter and the supporting Meter Management System (MMS) provides a revolutionary approach to Water Demand Management. The Intelligent Water Meter ensures significant water savings through consumption management with the added benefit of no billing costs. Bad debt is reduced and the lower consumption contributes towards reduced demand on reticulation and treatment plant

The Intelligent Water Meter can be set to operate in a number of different modes and it can be switched between modes without removing the meter. This provides both the customer and service providers with complete flexibility.

The meter can be operated in a number of configurations:

Water Management Device to control daily consumption

Standard Prepayment meter allowing customers to manage their water consumption

Post paid mode with optional credit limit

An optional Lifeline feature is available on all meters

The unit consists of a Class B multi jet water meter with electronic read out and integrated flow control valve. The patented valve system ensures extended battery life. The unit is meteorologically sealed and provides a high level of resistance to physical and magnetic temper. Should the meter become faulty it can be replaced in the field within ten minutes. The meter is powered by a long-life battery which id field replaceable.

Each user is issued with a user tag in the form of iButton^TM. The iButton^TM has non-volatile memory and is built into a small, robust holder designed to withstand rough handling. The Intelligent Water Meter is housed in a robust UV resistant plastic casing that is SABS approved for outside installation and is available in three configurations:

· Pillar Box Housing for yard installation complete with shut off valve, non return valve, and quick fit compression fittings

· Above Ground Unit supplied complete with manifold for easy replacement of existing conventional meters

· Wall Mounting supplied complete with shut off and non-return valve fully reversible mounting to facilitate pipe runs

The total unit is SANS 1529-1. 1529-9:2003 compliant and is manufactured to ISO 9001:2002 standards.
