It optimizes digital and analog data accuracy by getting its information directly from the register. The unit is attached both to the 3-wire encoder register output and, if desired, to a touchpad.

The Meter-Master Model 80 Encoder Interface Unit reads an encoder register every few seconds and provides precise pulse, 4-20mA, ASCII text, and AMR outputs.

Flexible in their user-programmable capabilities, EKA-1600 Nodes allow utilities to configure and modify a water meter's read and report intervals during installation and any time thereafter.Īctaris' Flostar single jet line of commercial and industrial meters are now available in American Water Works Association's turbine standard lay lengths, allowing utilities to account for water that is unmeasured by their currently installed turbine meters. Once connected, the system extends two-way communications to the water meter, incorporating water applications into the company's AMI solution. They wirelessly link to a nearby EkaNet Electric Meter Node that is part of a fixed AMI network.
