Service Point with pulse sensor

NB-IoT and LTE Cat M1 logger for water meters:

– Inductive, Hall or pulse sensor – three variants cover practically every meter
– Reads the meter you already have – no modification, metrological approval unaffected
– 3 minutes to install
– IP68, −20 °C to +55 °C
– Up to 16 years battery in laboratory testing; 5 years and running in the field
– 30,000 sample buffer, firmware updated over the air

Over 20,000 in service, including 16,000 in the VIK Yovkovtsi network.

How it works?

Service Point mounts onto a water meter you already have and reads its register. Three sensor variants cover the market: SP-27 reads the modulation pointer inductively on Wehrle MODULARIS, Enevita, Sensus, Itron and Madalena meters; SP-25 uses a Hall sensor for Teksan, Baylan and similar; SP-26 takes a pulse input and works with any meter that has a pulse output, including Diehl.

Readings are stored on the device and transmitted over NB-IoT or LTE Cat M1 on an embedded SIM, at intervals from 30 seconds to 2 weeks. The meter is not modified and its metrological approval is unaffected.

Installation takes three minutes.
