Ultrasonic Water Meter – IP68 Smart Flow Meter with RS485
Non-mechanical ultrasonic water meter delivering reliable, low-maintenance flow measurement for water, wastewater, and irrigation systems. Fully IP68 rated for underground installation with smart communication options for remote monitoring.
This ultrasonic water meter utilises advanced transit-time ultrasonic technology to provide accurate and stable flow measurement without the need for moving parts.
Unlike traditional mechanical meters, it operates with no impeller or turbine, eliminating wear, reducing pressure loss, and significantly improving long-term reliability in demanding water environments.
Designed for full submersion (IP68), the unit is well suited to installation in:
- Underground pits
- Irrigation chambers
- Outdoor and exposed environments
- Remote monitoring locations
The meter supports RS485 (Modbus RTU) communication for direct integration into:
- PLC systems
- RTUs and telemetry systems
- SCADA platforms
- Data logging and cloud monitoring systems
Optional NB wireless connectivity enables remote data transmission, making it ideal for smart water management, agriculture, and distributed infrastructure monitoring.
With compatibility across water, wastewater, and seawater, and pressure handling up to 1.6 MPa, this unit is suited to municipal, agricultural, and industrial water systems where durability and remote visibility are critical.
