Remote water monitoring
27 April 2018
A when a customer living in Norway wanted view the water usage at a property in the Hebridean Islands remotely and set alarms to alert them of any peaks in the flow which would indicate a potentially burst pipe or other water leak, they approached Bell Flow Systems to provide a solution.
Considering the relatively high possibility of freezing temperatures and frozen pipes, Bell Flow suggested a Badger RCDL Meter with a pulsed output, which does not suffer frost damage if the water within the chamber freezes. The water within the RCDL can freeze and the meter will cease working but when the water thaws again, the meter will continue accurate operation once more.
Along with this model of pulsed meter, the customer was also offered the Aqualink GSM Datalogger. The pulse output from the water meter would go into the Aqualink - which is fitted with a SIM card. The flow data is then captured by the Aqualink and sent to an on-line portal with a secure customer log in.
