What is a valve-controlled water meter?
A valve-controlled water meter is a water meter with a valve control function. It can not only measure water consumption like a traditional water meter, but also control water flow through a built-in valve. This enables the valve-controlled water meter to have functions such as remote control and automatic valve opening and closing, thus realizing more intelligent water management.
Valve-controlled water meters have many advantages when used in urban residential areas and can solve many problems that traditional water meters are difficult to deal with.
- Remote control improves management efficiency:
The valve-controlled water meter can realize remote valve opening and closing, valve status monitoring, water consumption data collection and other functions of the water meter through a remote control system without manual door-to-door operation.
It saves a lot of manpower, material resources and time costs, and improves the management efficiency of the water company.
Avoids errors caused by manual meter reading.
Improves the efficiency of responding to emergencies, such as water leakage, arrears, etc., and can quickly close the valve remotely to reduce losses.
- Real-time data monitoring for leakage analysis:
Valve-controlled water meters can upload water use data in real time, which is convenient for water companies to analyze and monitor data.
It is convenient for water companies to conduct leakage analysis, timely discover leakage points in the pipeline network, reduce leakage rates, and save water resources.
It can monitor abnormal water use, such as sudden increase or decrease in water consumption, and timely discover and deal with problems.
- Accurate measurement, fair and reasonable:
Valve-controlled water meters usually use more advanced measurement technology, with more accurate measurement and smaller errors.
It avoids user disputes caused by inaccurate measurement and protects the legitimate rights and interests of users.
It provides data support for the rational use and conservation of water resources.
In addition, as a new type of valve-controlled water meter, the ultrasonic (valve-controlled) water meter works by detecting the time difference caused by the change in speed when the ultrasonic sound beam propagates downstream and upstream in the water, analyzing and processing the water flow rate, and further calculating the water flow. This water meter has functions such as real-time data communication, automatic detection, abnormal diagnosis, and real-time alarm, and supports household water supply metering for measuring drinking cold water flowing through tap water pipes.
In short, the intelligent function of valve-controlled water meters can greatly improve the efficiency of urban residents’ water management and reduce the waste of water resources. It is a more advanced, efficient, and intelligent water meter solution, representing the future development direction of water meters.
