Smart Meter Connectivity
Smart meters are a step forward in how utilities measure and manage resources. As IoT devices, they have the ability to automatically measure and transfer data for electricity, water, and gas consumption. These smart meters use sensors to share this information, eliminating the need to send someone to manually read the meter each month. This makes billing and managing the infrastructure easier.
Reliable connectivity is essential for smart meters to work effectively. This is where Geospace comes in, leveraging our experience as the leading innovator and manufacturer of marine seismic solutions to create a family of highly ruggedized hydro products designed specifically for the water utility industry.
Geospace’s Hydroconn® AMR Water Meter Connectors have become the de facto standard for inline connectors, providing utilities with the watertight reliability they need. Our connectors are completely molded, removing the unreliable dependence on an adhesive bond.
Key Features
Watertight Reliability
Designed for underwater applications with a unique design that ensures total moisture sealing. These connectors are submersible to 30 meters.
Robust Design
Special manufacturing processes improve cable/connector reliability for rugged field use.
Durable Materials
Flexible TPU (Thermoplastic Polyurethane) and glass-filled TPU connector material. The cable jacket is made of TPU, and the connectors are molded.
Strain Relief
Post-molded strain relief from cable to connector.
Fully Bonded
Internal/external totally bonded connector.
Easy Access
Geospace’s AMR water meter connectors are designed for easy re-entry for troubleshooting or meter swap outs.
