NB-IoT Smart Water Meters: Solution for Modern Water Management

Sanchuan Wisdom began to explore the collection and platform management of residential water use data based on NB-IoT technology in 2015. In 2017, Sanchuan passed the testing and certification of an overseas third-party testing agency and deployed in the Australian market. At the same year, Yingtan's 100,000 NB-IoT smart water meters were put into commercial use.

During our 2022 smart water initiative in Zhejiang Province, Sanchuan Wisdom's NB-IoT meters helped reduce DMA (District Metered Area) leakage by 37% through:

• Real-time pressure monitoring

• Minimum night flow analysis

• Automated leak alerts

  
  

Technology Comparison

Communication Protocols

Sanchuan Wisdom's NB-IoT meters comply with China's CJ/T 188-2018 standard for electronic water meters, featuring:
