[Case Study] Automatic Sewer Meter Reading and Remote Monitoring System

Significant reduction in business trip expenses! Introducing a case where remote monitoring of water usage in real-time has become possible.

We would like to introduce a case where our automatic meter reading and remote monitoring system was implemented for a customer managing sewer meter readings across the country. Previously, regular on-site visits and visual meter readings were conducted, but the costs and labor associated with traveling for remote meter reading were significant, leading to the challenge of wanting to conduct remote monitoring at a lower cost. After implementation, we built a system that counts the flow accumulation pulses from the sewer meters using the "WMB-DI16" and accumulates data in an IoT gateway. By collecting data remotely via a fixed IP SIM, we successfully reduced travel expenses. [Case Overview] ■ Previous Specifications: Regular on-site visits and visual meter readings ■ Challenge: Desire to conduct remote monitoring at a lower cost to reduce travel expenses ■ Solution: Implementation of the IoT gateway and pulse input node "WMB-DI16" ■ Customer Feedback: The ease of setting up and implementing the system without programming was highly valued. *For more details, please feel free to contact us.
