With the continuous development and progress of science and technology, the network has gradually covered all regions of the country, and more and more intelligent products have entered our lives. The traditional mechanical water meters have also followed the pace of the times and used emerging technologies such as the Internet of things to change the traditional manual meter reading mode. The traditional water meters are gradually being eliminated. Intelligent water meters and remote water meters have entered people's homes and are favored by users and management departments, What is the difference between remote water meter and intelligent water meter?
Intelligent water meter is generally known as IC card intelligent water meter. It uses IC card as the data transmission medium. It is a highly intelligent instrument with advanced microcomputer control technology as the core and contactless smart card technology as the information transmission medium. The instrument is based on the rotor type water meter, and is equipped with a new type of low-power, high torque output non pressure loss motor control valve, microcomputer controller and RF card operation module. The prepaid mode of "recharge before water use" is adopted. There is no need for manual meter reading. When the user uses up the water charge, the water meter will automatically close the valve to stop the water supply. The user can recharge the IC card again to restore the water supply. This effectively solves the problems of arrears in water charges and difficult charging for the water supply department. At the same time, it also avoids many inconveniences caused by meter reading at home, and focuses on the prepaid function.
The remote water meter is composed of an ordinary mechanical water meter and an electronic acquisition and transmission module. The electronic module completes signal acquisition, data processing, storage and uploads the data to the repeater or handheld meter reader through the communication line. The table body adopts an integrated design. It can record and save the user's water consumption in real time, or directly read the current cumulative amount. Each water meter has a unique code. When the intelligent water meter receives the meter reading instruction, it can immediately upload the water meter data to the management system. At present, remote water meters are mainly divided into two categories: wired remote water meters and wireless remote water meters; These two remote water meters can realize the functions of remote meter reading, remote control, remote payment, prepayment, early warning prompt, stepped water price, etc., focusing on the remote control function.
Both intelligent water meters and remote water meters have their own advantages. With the progress of science and technology and the arrival of the era of the Internet of things, the technology will become more and more mature. Therefore, the new remote water meters will not only have the function of prepayment, but also have the function of remote meter reading. They will combine the characteristics of waterproof and anti-interference, and will be widely used throughout the country in the future. You can choose your own water meter according to your actual needs.
