AMR/AMISolutions

from Elster

Many utilities today are partnering with Elster to install the most advanced intelligent metering solutions. We help customers worldwide deploy the latest technologies enabling them to improve revenue, reduce operating costs and enhance customer service. Elster offers a broad range of intelligent metering solutions in the form of automated meter reading (AMR) and advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) systems. Our approach allows utilities to implement flexible, cost-effective reading systems that can be integrated into today's operations, while allowing the system to evolve as the utility grows or as technology advances.

Elster Emeris solutions comprise five solutions, each designed to address particular needs. In addition, Elster offers services which can be adapted to specific customer requirements.

The good news is that with Elster’s Emeris solutions, you don’t have to worry about deciding between walk-by or fixed network. Due to our underlying technology, upgrading from walk-by to fixed network is simple, seamless and cost-effective.

Elster is a world leader in measuring and improving the flow of natural gas, electricity and water in more than 130 countries. It has one of the most extensive installed revenue measurement bases in the world and has deployed more than 200 million metering modules deployed during the last 10 years alone. Elster is enabling the vital connections between technology and Earth’s energy and resources, for our global community.

AMR/AMI solutions from Elster

Emeris PrimusThe simplest, lowest cost AMR If AMR is new to you or you have a small number of metering points, Elster offers you Emeris Primus which is easy to install and get started in a few hours. This is the simplest form of AMR. It involves a small number of end-points and the necessary reading tools (handheld reader and PC software) for a quick start. All you need to start reading meters remotely is shipped to you in a box, together with a quick start guide that is easy to understand and designed to help you set up your AMR system in a few hours. There is no need for specialist knowledge or special tools.

Key benefits• Full AMR capabilities with a

simplified deployment approach • Reduces hard-to-access meter

reading costs • Low cost automated reading• It gets you started in a few hours • No technical knowledge needed

Emeris MobileMobile meter reading solutionEmeris Mobile helps to reduce reading costs while improving reading accuracy by eliminating human data entry error. It captures read data, then transfers it to the back office wirelessly and to the billing system electronically. It also removes the need for meter access, which results in improved efficiency and reduced employee exposure to hazardous reading environments.

Emeris Mobile allows utilities to read meters wirelessly via handheld devices today, while fully preparing you for a subsequent, seamless upgrade to an AMI fixed network, ensuring your current investment is future-proof.

Emeris NetFlexible fixed network solutionWhen you choose Emeris Net you get a true two-way AMI solution, that allows you to attain higher levels of efficiency, improving water conservation and customer service.

With Emeris Net there is no need for in-field meter reading. All end-to-end communications are instead carried out via the fixed network. The system comprises a mesh or star network including data concentrators, which transit data from the meter end-point all the way to the back office. Event alerts like tamper or leakage are transmitted to the back office as soon as they happen.

We can deploy the head-end and MDM system, WaterNet, as Software as a Service (SaaS) or on-premises.

Our specialist teams provide project management, training and after sales support to ensure successful implementation.

Emeris MBusWired solution for high-rise buildingsBased on the European Standard, Emeris MBus offers customers a solution that is simple, flexible and scalable.

Using a wired communications bus, Emeris Mbus is the best solution for installations where meters are close to each other, for example in apartment buildings.

Emeris Bus is based on the EmerisNet architecture with data concentrators that collect data from meters and transmit it to a central Meter Data Management system via secure IP protocol (GPRS or ethernet).

We can deploy the MDM system as Software as a Service (SaaS) or on-premises.
