In this post we spell out the similarities and the differences between water meters versus flow meters. Hint: One measures volume while the other measures velocity.
There are different protocols for the different layers in an IoT architecture and in this post we take a look at just a few of them.
Arad’s water meters are made from stainless steel or polymer. In this blog post we explain what stainless steel and polymer are and why they are the optimal materials for manufacturing the best water meters available in the market today.
LoRa has become the standard wireless platform for WAN IoT, connecting 50 million devices in more than 100 countries across a wide range of “smart” applications from homes, buildings and cities to agriculture and, of course, metering.
Today there is also a growing awareness that the value of data could be multiplied by breaking down proprietary silos and sharing data freely for research, analytics, and other important purposes. In this blog we look at the challenges and the opportunities of sharing data, with an emphasis on the utilities sector.
Companies rarely take the time to look back at where they were so that they can appreciate how far they have come. But there are times when something major happens and it is recognized as a true “wow” moment. This is exactly how we all felt last month when the Arad Group acquired 60% ownership of the Italian company WaterTech.
IoT, the Internet of Things, was once thought to be the way of the future. Well, the future is now and IoT is a big part of our lives.
we decided to revisit how the market is developing and take a look at some case studies that show how the investment in smart water meters and AMI is saving money and water.
Consumers gain unprecedented transparency into their water bills and can profit from incentives to conserve water usage. But along with these well-documented and widely acknowledged benefits comes increased exposure to malicious or accidental unauthorized access to the streams of data flowing from smart water meter end-points to base stations and from there to the utility’s data center.
The Arad Group is proud to announce that Sonata, our Ultrasonic Residential Water Meter, has won the esteemed German Design Award for Excellent Product Design for 2018.
Several recently published research reports have been uniformly upbeat about the forecasted growth of the smart water meter market. With smart metering in the electricity and gas sectors approaching maturity, smart water meters are now expected to be the growth drivers in the smart meter market.
Water meters have come a long way over the last decade. Leveraging cutting-edge IoT technologies, they play an important role in our “smart”, always-connected world.
This info-graphic explores the scope of a two causes for NRW and suggests solutions that can help get them under control.
In this blog we look at the impact of real, physical losses – i.e., leakages – on NRW – Non Revenue Water.
We believe that the introduction of advanced metering and data collection technology can play an important role in both reducing water bills while enhancing water resiliency.
In this blog we look at the impact of water meter inaccuracy on NRW (non revenue water).
