Automatic meter reading systems

At EMT we say that manually reading meters is too much of a chore for modern life and in any event it does not utilise the full potential of metering. We recommend installing an automatic meter reading (AMR) system as you install meters. Automatic meter reading turns an “idle asset” meter into a “work horse” for utilities management. EMT supply, install and commission Automatic Meter Reading (AMR) systems using various
comms technologies including;

  • DATA BIRD low power radio – ideal for campus sites, towns and cities
  • DATA BIRD Hardwired, ‘daisy chained’ meters – office blocks and apartments
  • Network and/or GPRS based loggers – small, single or multi location sites

AMR hardware is installed adjacent to the meters and interfaced via either pulse output or serial connection to enable automatic meter reading. The AMR is connected to a PC via a variety of different comms methods to allow automatic meter reading. EMT’s AMR systems are ‘LEGO’ like in structure and can be grown as budget and needs mature.Read more…
