  • 2-minute read

With the SONICO® NANO ultrasonic water meter, GWF is setting new standards for a digital, sustainable, and interoperable water infrastructure. The combination of high-precision measurement technology and flexible communication connectivity provides utility companies with a reliable data foundation for efficient water management.

Technological highlights at a glance

  • 4D ultrasound technology for highest measuring accuracy up to an approved measuring range of R2000
  • Robust, lead-free ECO brass housing for maximum operational reliability and sustainability
  • Bidirectional measurement with automatic direction detection (MID-approved)
  • Protection class IP68 and high-quality mineral glass for long-term stability even under demanding conditions
  • Flexible communication via LoRaWAN, Wireless M-Bus and Wired M-Bus in dual-mode operation
  • Investment security through compatibility with BSI-certified smart meter gateways

Interoperability as the key to digitalization

A key added value lies in the seamless integration of the SONICO® NANO into existing and future smart metering systems. In combination with the SMGW CASA from EMH metering GmbH & Co. KG, interoperability between different metering devices and system components is ensured.

This creates the basis for open, scalable and secure infrastructures – a crucial factor for long-term investment security and regulatory compliance.

Added value for utility companies

By integrating into an interoperable smart metering ecosystem, utility companies benefit from:

• Simplified system integration
• Higher data availability and quality
• Reduced operating costs
• Future-proof investments
