In our daily lives, water resources are essential energy, and the price of water is determined by the degree of the water meter. Therefore, we often worry about whether the water bill will be overcharged. The emergence of intelligent water meters has effectively solved this problem. Today, let's take a look at the introduction of intelligent water meters.
Electronic sensor of intelligent water meter: An electronic sensor is installed below the dial in the counting mechanism of the water meter. The sensor rotates synchronously with the counting gear, and the electronic information stored by the electronic sensor is completely synchronized with the mechanical reading of the water meter, forming a specific mathematical functional relationship. Using A/D conversion at the water meter collection terminal, electronic information is directly displayed as the water meter reading.
Infrared sensor of intelligent water meter: An infrared sensing device is installed at each position corresponding to the scale under the code plate of the institutional water meter, and a data processor composed of CPU and microcontroller is installed inside the upper cover. The infrared sensor on each scale summarizes its scale display information to the processor and runs the program to display the water meter data.
IC card for intelligent water meters: IC card serves as the carrier, which inputs information into the control system of the water meter to determine the working status of the water meter, such as on/off, recharge, etc. Its main function is to use the IC card controller to achieve prepaid water meter applications, that is, "buy water first, use water later".
The photoelectric sensor of the intelligent water meter: A photoelectric converter is installed at the rotary table of the mechanical water meter, and there is a groove on the rotary table. Every time the rotary table rotates, the converter completes an electrical conversion and outputs a counting pulse when the groove passes through the optical transmission.
Hall sensor for intelligent water meters: A sensor based on magneto electric conversion technology is composed of a Hall element and a magnet added to a mechanical water meter. The magnet installed on the counting disc rotates with the counting disc, and every time it passes through the Hall element, it outputs a counting pulse.
The reed sensor of the intelligent water meter: Install a reed and a magnet in the mechanical water meter, and use the reed of the reed to cycle open and close under the circulation of the magnet, thereby outputting a metering pulse signal.
That's all I can introduce about smart water meters, hoping to be helpful to you.
