Product description
Advance measuring infrastructures (AMI) solutions for urban / residential markets usually differ from and are independent of the required solutions for industrial applications, and include various technologies. The entire AMI-system is based on an intelligent meter, using a 2-way communication which enables remote meter reading and utility network configuring (power, water and gas). In addition to that, it includes a wide range of services focusing on energy and environmental management:
- Management of water distribution networks for automatic:
- Water meters reading
- Detecting leaks beyond the meter and informing customers
- Detecting leaks before the meter thanks to noise loggers
- Measuring water quality (level of chlorine, temperature, pressure, conductivity, etc...) - Measuring water level in the sewage network
- Managing energy in buildings (collect consumption data for gas, electricity, and thermal energy)
- Temperature monitoring
- Water reserves management
Homerider modules operate in the 868 MHz band, and transmit at a maximum power of 14 dBm. The modules have a data storage and management capacity that allows them to send a large amount of "intelligent" data.
Special features:
- Current index at time of transmission
- Hourly index in "Fixed Network" mode
- Monthly index in "Walk-By" mode
- Time without consumption (current, passed) which allows, among other things, the detection of blocked meters
- Maximum flow rate in the period which allows the validation of the pertinence of the type of meter installed
- Minimum flow in the period which allows determining the leakage volume.
- Continuous flow rate
- Consumption histogram
- Number of backflows (the number of times when the flow has reversed)
- Volume of backflows
- Alarms
- leakage alarms
- backflow alarms
- tamper alarm (dismantling, cable-cutting or magnetic fraud...)
- battery capacity
