chamber the meter has a low starting flow.

It can be supplied with metrological seal according

the MID regulation 2004/22/EC with a ratio up to

R400.

Foreign matter present in the water is filtered out

by either the tubular strainer on the inlet or the seat

strainer. All electronic components of the register

are hermetically sealed and assembled in a glasscopper casing which allow the protection class IP68.

ENVIRONMENTAL

iPERL is focused on achieving the lowest

possible environmental impact. Such

impact is measured through a complete

life-cycle analysis covering climate

change, ecosystem quality, human health

and natural resources.

iPERL was developed with disposal in

mind and is manufactured using fullyrecyclable materials.

iPERL is designed to meet the demands

of even the most severe field utilisations.

These include the fast open and close

tap movements that create fast flow

transients difficult to capture and

account for…and typical in residential and

commercial applications.

iPERL is fully protected against all water

network hazards. It is built to accommodateinterior and exterior installations. It is IP68

rated and fully protected against water

vapour transmissions that would occur

with the presence of any air.

Communications

iPERL is equipped with Sensus low

power 868MHz or 433MHz integrated

radio technology. Utilising a 1½ way

communication system, it offers both

the benefits of one and two way system

architecture. The innovative designprovides billing and alarm status for walk-

by / drive-by collection, plus in addition

the ability to interrogate the meter for

more detailed data including data logging

of up to 2880 values.

Along with Sensus Radio, iPERL also offers

an OMS certified T1 broadcast platform.

Long Range Radio

Sensus Radio will provide a link to the

long range radio infrastructure, FlexNet,allowing iPERL to be directly integrated.

With the utility grade communications

technology and whole life values of

iPERL, we offer a technology roadmap

fully aligned to a smarter future.
