CA 2653092

A remote water meter monitoring system is provided. A mesh network-type transceiver unit is coupled to a water meter housing having a water counting mechanism inside to transmit water consumption information as well as other sensor information, such as backflow detection, water pressure, and water metrics (e.g., residual chlorine and temperature) to a central server system via a bridge device and a corresponding mesh network. Mechanical energy from the water flowing through the water meter housing is converted to electrical energy via an energy conversion unit. An electrically powered shut off valve is remote addressable via the transceiver unit.

L'invention concerne un système de surveillance à distance de compteurs d'eau. Une unité émettrice-réceptrice du type en réseau maillé est couplée à un boîtier de compteur d'eau contenant un mécanisme de comptage d'eau afin de transmettre des informations de consommation d'eau ainsi que d'autres informations issues de capteurs, telles que la détection de reflux, la pression d'eau et des métriques relatives à l'eau (par ex. le chlore résiduel et la température) à un système serveur central par l'intermédiaire d'un dispositif de pont et d'un réseau maillé correspondant. L'énergie mécanique provenant de l'eau traversant le boîtier de compteur d'eau est convertie en énergie électrique par une unité de conversion d'énergie. Une vanne d'arrêt actionnée électriquement est adressable à distance par le biais de l'unité émettrice-réceptrice.
