The extraction and transport of water often takes place in remote areas where there is no possibility to supply measuring instruments with power or to transmit data via wired connectivity. The Promag W 800 flowmeter with battery-powered operation from Endress+Hauser provides maintenance-free operation for up to 15 years, as well as worldwide secure data transfer via cellular radio.
The Promag W 800 electromagnetic flowmeter provides not only reliable monitoring of water supply networks but also efficient and time-saving maintenance. Leaks can be located reliably, and non-billable water losses (non-revenue water) can be avoided.
The product is suitable for measuring lake, river, spring or groundwater flows for drinking and process water, as well as for applications in distribution networks subject to fiscal metering. Likewise of great importance are consumption measurements when irrigating huge agricultural areas in climatic dry regions.
Promag W 800 has a backlit display, making it quick and easy to read measured values. Endress+Hauser’s SmartBlue app can be used to interact with the flowmeter for operations, and to provide more comprehensive data retrieval on site. It is also available with various drinking water approvals such as KTW/W270, WRAS BS6920, ACS or NSF 61.
These features combine to provide: reliable monitoring of water flows and long-term economical operation through seamless consumption measurements with a maximum measured error of ±0.5 percent; exact cost allocation and billing in accordance with various laws and regulations; monitoring of important characteristic variables such as water volume, totalized flow, flow limits, and targeted leakage detection.
