Halve your non-revenue water.
In 8 months.

LIVE·12 DMAs · 2,840 meters · NRW 19% → 11.2%

Ultrasonic water meters — OIML R49, 8-yr battery, no moving parts — paired with 1 kHz pressure-transient loggers and an edge leak-scoring model. We measure the inflow, we hear the hammer, and we tell the crew exactly where to dig.

§01 — What this is

Most water utilities estimate their losses. Yours should measure them.

01

Ultrasonic · no moving parts

Transit-time ultrasonic meters with OIML R49 accuracy across their entire 8-year battery life. No turbine to silt up, no impeller to wear out. Bill-grade reads every month, audit-grade lineage every read.

02

Pressure transients · 1 kHz

0–16 bar pressure logger with a 5-second 1 kHz transient buffer. Catches water-hammer, valve-closure shock and pump-trip pressure events — to the exact 100 ms — that 15-min flow data hides entirely.

03

Leaks scored · not just alarmed

Edge model fuses minimum-night-flow, profile shape and (optional) acoustic correlation into a per-segment leak score. Crews go to the worst-scoring 5% of the network, not the whole grid. NRW falls; crew hours drop.

§01 — Complete stack

End-to-end. Not just a device.

A solution is hardware in the field plus the infrastructure that makes the data useful — secure ingestion, a dashboard your team actually opens, and APIs to whatever runs your business.

§03 — Where it goes

Eight metering applications. One ultrasonic family.

Pick a row — see what we measure there.

01 / 08 · DMA inflow

District metering at network entries

One ultrasonic meter on every district inlet. Live inflow, daily totals and a minimum-night-flow baseline per DMA. Mass-balance against consumer reads — real losses, not estimates.

§04 — Why not mechanical

Mechanical meters wear in. Ultrasonic meters don't.

A turbine or Woltmann meter is OIML R49 the day it's installed. After a year of sediment it's ±5%. After three years and a few water-hammer events, it's a meter that argues with the bill. Ultrasonic is solid-state — no impeller, no degradation, no monthly clipboard round.

§04 — Security & infrastructure

Built for plant & campus IT.

Industrial sites have non-negotiables — segmentation, audit trails, and the ability to run when the WAN drops. We design for that on day one.

Transport
TLS 1.3 device → cloud. Mutual auth via X.509 or pre-shared keys. LoRaWAN 1.0.4 / NB-IoT carrier-grade encryption end-to-end.
Identity
Per-device certificates, automated rotation. RBAC + SSO (SAML / OIDC). Audit log of every operator action.
Data
AES-256 at rest. Tenant isolation at row + schema level. Configurable retention, GDPR / DPDP-aware exports and deletes.
OTA &amp; ops
Signed firmware, staged rollouts, rollback. 24×7 monitoring, on-call, runbooks. SLA up to 99.95%.
Deploy
Sensoverse Cloud (default), private VPC, on-prem (air-gapped), or hybrid. Mumbai & Dubai regions.
Compliance
ISO 27001 controls, SOC 2 Type II in progress. Vendor / penetration test reports under NDA.
