Non-Revenue Water (NRW) | Water Loss
Non-Revenue Water (NRW) or Water Loss is shortchanging utilities on a massive scale. NRW occurs when systemic leaks in piping infrastructure, aging meters, and/or theft creates an imbalance between the quantity pumped and the amount consumed. Great care, engineering, and cost go into treating and delivering every gallon of water - our most precious resource - that the demand for cost-effective and easy to manage tools and solutions have never been greater. NRW management begins with accurate ultrasonic measurement, precisely synchronized meter data, and intuitive meter data management (MDM) software to clarify decision making.
NRW Measurement
Sonata Residential + Octave C&I
100% solid-state measurement without moving parts ensures accurate accountability today and years into the future compared to the accuracy loss over time found in older mechanical designs. Octave and Sonata are built on a single development platform to ensure consistent reliability and performance.
Benefits
- 10 year meter and battery warranty
- Best-in-Class microflow measurement to capture every leak
- 1,000:1 Turndown ratio ensures ideal fit for every application
Considerations
- Ideal replacement for an aging meter base
- Lasting accountability surpassing mechanical alternatives
- Incorporate into plans for implementing District Metered Areas and Zones
NRW Systems & Software
Allegro AMI + Harmony MDM
Leveraging Allegro AMI's precisely synchronized data, Harmony MDM Software provides rich analytics to assess consumption trends, leak zones, Polygon tools for click and drag flow analysis, and DMA/DMZ Analytics. Powerful analytics presented beautifully help diagnose and solve Non-Revenue Water.
Benefits
- Fully synchronized data for precisely timed accountability
- Comprehensive analytical tools to diagnose and correct NRW
- Cost-effective, smart sensing technology for easy deployment
Considerations
- Under regulatory mandate to quantify and address water loss
- Aging infrastructure is due for replacement and/or grant funds available
- Looking for the most powerful technology combination available
