Implementation of GSM Based Water Meter A Step towards Automation in Billing System

Flow sensor based water meter presents very low cost, reliable, quick water meter system accompanying with existing GSM networks. Paddle wheel flow sensor JT121 measures the water flow accurately with the help of rotating paddles. Monthly water usage can be sent to municipal corporation office within fraction of seconds in the form of text message by using existing GSM network. Such metering system reduces manpower, with higher accuracy and less power consumption. It gives better results than any other metering systems such as mechanical, ultrasonic, electro-magnetic systems. By using this system water consumption can be observed in real time with controlled use of precious water resources. Water resources be managed for future planning. Non revenue water will be detected and loss can be avoided in distribution system.
