  2. Smart Antenna Technology For AMI 11/9/2020

    When several years of drought subsided and water restrictions were lifted this spring for the city of Round Rock, Texas, residents quickly returned to their pre-drought usage patterns—and as they watered their lawns, filled their pools and used water the way they had before the drought, their monthly bills began to rise. The utility billing office started getting calls from a number of the 33,000 homes and businesses throughout Round Rock.

  3. Cutting Energy Consumption Through Remote Leak Detection 11/12/2021

    As the U.S. water sector sharpens its net-zero strategies, the link between leakage and carbon should not be underestimated, writes Tom Cork, Channel Sales Director at technology company Ovarro.

  4. How To Read An Encoder 9/13/2013

    The HR-E LCD encoder has a 9-digit Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) to show consumption, flow and alarm information. The display automatically toggles between 9-digit and 6-digit consumption, rate of flow and meter model.

  5. The Role Of AI In One Water: Transforming Non-Revenue Water Management With LeakZon 2/4/2025

    One of the greatest challenges in achieving a holistic water management philosophy is Non-Revenue Water (NRW) — water that is lost before reaching consumers due to leaks, theft, or inaccurate metering.

  9. Two Years And Counting: The AFC SEMPER RPM Offers Aqua Insight Into Pressure Transients 1/18/2023

    It’s been more than two years since Aqua Pennsylvania began using an eye-opening technology, the AMERICAN Flow Control SEMPER Remote Pressure Monitor (RPM), to identify pressure transients and reduce main breaks and non-revenue water.

  10. Why Material Selection Matters 1/16/2020

    The Tri-County Water Authority (TCWA) was formed in 1991 as a not-for-profit water utility serving portions of Jackson, Cass and Bates counties, Missouri. When the system was first established, about half of the pipe installed were ductile iron and half were plastic PVC. Today, the authority’s 120 miles of pipe are approximately 75% ductile iron and 25% plastic PVC.
