The Axioma Qalcosonic W1 water meter from AMS Water Metering is now LoRaWAN Certified, confirming that the device fully conforms to the LoRaWAN specification. This specification is a standard declaring how a device must operate correctly according to LoRa technology to meet the LoRa Alliance conformity tests. The positive test results with the Qalcosonic W1 water meter confirmed that the device operates on LoRa networks with other manufacturers’ equipment.

LoRaWAN is the widely used technology of the Internet of Things (IoT) — a low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) protocol designed to allow wireless communication of things operated on a battery in regional, national or global networks. The main advantage of LoRa technology is long distance data transfer, without requiring complex solutions. A LoRa module allows different sensors to connect and readings can be monitored via the network or wireless connection.

Using a static method to measure hot and cold water consumption, the unit has no moving parts and is sensitive to low flows, down to 1 L/h. The unit eliminates measuring deviations caused by sand, suspended particles or air pockets and features 9 digits, multi-line LCD, and total volume and instantaneous flow rate indication.
