SSM-AQUO

SSM-Aquo are ultrasonic water meters with a compact design and brass connector for the residential sector. Offering remote telemetry, they use static metering technology, which has no moving parts subject to wear and tear, and guarantee high accuracy even when measuring very low flow rates.
 

SSM-Aquo eliminates the need for manual meter reading or estimation, providing an accurate and reliable reading and significantly reducing data collection time and manpower.
 

 
In addition, the smart meters have warnings that allow early detection of a burst pipe, lack of consumption or flow reversal and therefore possible leaks.
 
 

Available alarms

 
The information package transmitted by the meter is: consumption volume and critical information, such as alarms listed below (all visible on the display):
 

• No water: when there is no water to the metering section of the meter and resets when water refills the pipe.
• Leakage: activated after 12 h of continuous flow above 0.5*Q1 (12 h default, option 1-255), when the flow stops, the alarm is automatically reset.
• Broken pipe: in case of continuous flow above Q3 lasting half an hour, when the flow decreases lasting at least 1 minute below 0,5*Q1, the alarm is automatically reset.
• Reverse installation: when the initial flow released from the installation goes in reverse direction (incorrect installation), manual reset of the meter by the installer.
• Reverse flow: activated after continuous reverse flow above the threshold (20 litres default, option 1-255).
• Overflow: activated after 10 minutes above Q4.
• Tampering (opening of the box): detected when opening the box, as the metrological seal has to be broken to open the box.
• Freezing: water is frozen when the meter measures a water temperature below 0,5 °C (recorded for at least 1 hour).
• Battery: Percentage of battery charge, if below the set threshold.
