Generation 3: Smart Ultrasonic Metered Standpipes
Upgrade your network infrastructure with Saxon’s patented M213 Smart Ultrasonic Metered Standpipes newest Gen 3 model. Compliant with strict NMI R 49-1 standards, these non-mechanical meters use direct ultrasonic technology to track water flow on 'spring and ball' hydrants without the wear and tear of traditional moving parts. Featuring no internal moving components, it eliminates mechanical degradation, requiring only minimal servicing and biennial calibration under normal operating conditions.
Built to endure harsh Australian field environments, each tamperproof unit is shielded by a robust cast aluminium cover, powered by a long-life, non-rechargeable battery, and secured by a comprehensive 24-month warranty. Customise your deployment to fit your operations: available as a standalone hardware solution or fully integrated with our SR2 Platform (with optional theft-deterrent Asset Tracking).
