Automatic remote reading of existing meters
With LineMetrics, you can monitor electricity, gas and water meters automatically and continuously from a distance. This allows you to record your consumption automatically, to the exact date and without manual readings.
Over 300+ companies already count on LineMetrics
Numerous meters for electricity, gas and water are already installed in existing buildings – whether offices, residential complexes, hospitals or industry. Manual reading of these meters is time-consuming and prone to errors, which leads to outdated data and difficulties in cost planning.
With LineMetrics, you can conveniently read your meters remotely – even from basements or remote areas. Thanks to the powerful LoRa radio, the data is transmitted almost in real time. Analyze the consumption data online or integrate it directly into your existing systems.
Challenges
- On-site meter reading is labor-intensive and error-prone
- Selective data (e.g. once a year) is often no longer sufficient
- No data for planning, billing or optimization
- Heterogeneous meter landscape
Your advantages at a glance
Live monitoring for meter reading
Keep an eye on energy and water consumption in real time so that you can react effectively to fluctuations in consumption.
Simple reporting
Ensure compliance with energy consumption guidelines, supported by detailed, automatically generated consumption reports.
Continue to use existing meters
The installation of a digital measuring device is complex and expensive. With our sensor technology, you can record the consumption of your existing meters in real time and at a fraction of the cost!
Features in detail
Monitoring by remote readout
Benefit from comprehensive monitoring thanks to our advanced remote reading technology. Get accurate information about your energy and water consumption in real time.
Alerting in the event of consumption anomalies
Stay informed with automatic notifications whenever there is a deviation in the consumption pattern so that you can react quickly.
Long-term consumption analysis
Optimize your use of resources with detailed consumption analyses based on long-term data. These insights enable strategic planning and sustainable resource management.
A complete solution for easy retrofitting
Wireless sensors record current consumption values from existing meters. Gateways collect the measured values and transmit them via mobile radio. The data is clearly displayed in the LineMetrics Cloud and can be integrated into existing software solutions.
Electricity, gas, water & co. in one overall system
All consumption values – from different meters or even new measuring points – can be recorded and processed with one system.
Retrofitting existing meters via plug & play
The existing, heterogeneous meter landscape can be retrofitted wirelessly and without interfering with the existing infrastructure.
Long-range radio down to the basement
Measuring points scattered across the entire building or company premises can be read out without any problems – no comparison with WLAN.
Seamless data, almost in real time
The continuous recording of consumption data enables detailed analysis, optimization, performance monitoring and troubleshooting.
Which meters can be read (and how)?
Over the decades, an enormous number of different meters have been developed and many of them are still in use today. Reading this heterogeneous meter landscape with an overall system is a complex task: devices from countless manufacturers, different model series and types and with different outputs are installed.
LineMetrics has therefore created a comprehensive meter database. It covers around 90% of the current models and is constantly being expanded. At the touch of a button, it reveals which meter can be read in which way and with which sensor – the model designation or a photo of the meter is sufficient.
Read existing electricity meters
Up-to-date and detailed energy consumption enables accurate ancillary cost billing and internal cost allocation. They are also the basis for optimization and greater energy efficiency. LineMetrics can be used to read a wide variety of electricity meters wirelessly, for example these:
- Siemens (7CA54)
- Magpie (alpha A1500)
- EMH (SymBase, LZQJ-XC)
- hager (EHZ series)
- ISKRA (MT830/MT831)
- Landis+Gyr (ZMD series, E650, E750)
- PAFAL (C8 series)
Read existing gas meters
Detailed data on gas consumption makes it particularly easy to allocate costs and charge them on to tenants, for example. LineMetrics can be used to read a wide variety of gas meters wirelessly, including the following:
- Itron (ACD series, RF1 series)
- Actaris (now Itron ACD)
- Honeywell / Elster (BK-G series, IRM-3 DUO, RABO)
Read existing water meters
The automated and seamless recording of water consumption not only enables allocation and rebilling, but can also provide valuable information for optimizing consumption and detecting leaks and burst water pipes. LineMetrics can be used to read the following water meters, among others, wirelessly:
- Actaris (HF10L)
- Apator PoWoGaz (MWN series)
- Bernhardt (BM series),
- Honeywell / Elster (M100, C4000, H5000)
- Itron (Aquadis+, Flostar)
- Kamstrup (flowIQ)
- Krohne (WATERFLUX)
- Pipersberg (P.FOX, MNK series)
- Zenner (MNK series, MTKD series)
Read existing heat/cooling meters
The exact recording of heating and cooling quantities creates transparency in the billing/allocation of energy costs. With LineMetrics, a wide variety of existing meters can be read wirelessly, including the following:
- Siemens (UH50)
- Kamstrup (MULTICAL series)
- Landis+Gyr (ULTRAHEAT T550)
