Product Feature

Photoelectric Direct Reading, Precise and Synchronized

Photoelectric Direct Reading, Precise and Synchronized

Utilizes high-precision photoelectric direct-reading technology to capture the original mechanical dial readings in real time. Data is synchronized without deviation, eliminating cumulative measurement errors. The metering results are stable and reliable, ensuring clear and accurate traceability.

Zero Power Consumption at Meter End, Passive Operation

Zero Power Consumption at Meter End, Passive Operation

The meter operates in a “zero power” passive mode, requiring no energy during daily operation. Power is only momentarily drawn during meter reading, eliminating the need for internal batteries and completely removing maintenance concerns associated with battery replacement.

M-Bus Standard Interface Enables AMR Remote Automatic Meter Reading

M-Bus Standard Interface Enables AMR Remote Automatic Meter Reading

Equipped with an M-Bus standard communication interface, fully compatible with mainstream industry protocols EN1434-3 and Modbus RTU. The wide protocol compatibility allows smooth system integration. Leveraging a mature communication architecture, it supports AMR remote automatic meter reading, providing stable and efficient data transmission for rapid batch collection and upload of water usage data.

Simple Wiring, Efficient Installation

Simple Wiring, Efficient Installation

Supports multiple wired and wireless communication modes, allowing scheduled automatic collection and upload of water usage data, synchronized with real-time device status. Remote valve control enables precise water supply management anytime, anywhere. The device can automatically report core parameters, including remaining battery, valve status, operational conditions, and network signal strength. Intelligent anomaly detection triggers alerts immediately in case of abnormal flow or device faults, quickly identifying potential issues, reducing manual inspection, simplifying maintenance, and achieving centralized, intelligent, and highly efficient water meter operation management.
