Ultrasonic Smart Gas Meters: The Propane Industry Game-Changer
Find out exactly how much gas your customers are using… Replace your mechanical gas meter with an Ultrasonic Smart Meter from Cavagna!
Benefits of a Smart Gas Meter:
Get real-time gas-level data on-demand
Use your drivers more effectively; optimize efficient deliveries and avoid run-outs
Increased control to your overall storage efficiency by analyzing historical consumption trends
The meter does not include any moving mechanical components that will wear out over time
Collect historical data of gas consumption and create personalized reports
How does it work?
Gas measurement: the smart meter uses an innovative high-performance ultrasonic sensor by Panasonic, designed to accurately measure the volume of LP gas as it passes through the ultrasonic sensor.
Values transcription: The measured values are encrypted and decrypted by standard communication protocol through Device Language Message Specification (DLMS).
Data transmission: The measurement signals are then stored until the Prodigi electronically communicates the values to OTUS – a cloud-baseed platform – using LoRaWAN, NB-IoT or LTE Communication.
Data storage: OTUS acts as a collection centre for all of the information the meter is able to acquire and transmit in encrypted form.
