Hanbit’s UWM products utilize LoRaWAN
connectivity to provide accurate water use data
Semtech Corporation (Nasdaq: SMTC), a leading supplier of
high-performance analog and mixed-signal semiconductors and
advanced algorithms, announced that Hanbit, a provider of
end-to-end automation solutions in smart gas, water and electricity
metering, has developed a new ultrasonic water metering (UWM)
solution built on Semtech’s LoRa® devices and the LoRaWAN®
protocol. Hanbit’s UWM products utilize LoRaWAN-based connectivity
to enable the near real-time transmission of accurate water use
data, even at very low flowrates.

“Semtech’s LoRa devices and the LoRaWAN protocol provide the
ideal platform for the smart metering industry,” said Phani
Varanasi, CEO at Hanbit. “The platform’s capabilities for accurate
data transmission and long battery life provide our customers with
long-term insight into their energy consumption patterns. With this
data, customers can focus on increasing their efficiency and
sustainability while reducing operating cost.”
Hanbit’s UWM smart meters use ultrasonic pulses to take precise
measurements of water flowrate as low as three liters per hour.
Flow readings occur at fixed intervals to provide accurate insight
into water use trends. This accurate meter data is accessible in
real time through Cloud-based applications for simplified billing
and trend analysis. In the event of a drop in water flow or other
abnormality, the smart meter immediately sends a warning message
over the LoRaWAN network to enable a quick response and prevention
of damage. Additionally, the low power capabilities of LoRa devices
enable Hanbit to offer metering solutions with up to 20 years of
battery life, reducing replacement and maintenance cost to the
customer.
“LoRaWAN-based applications deploy with minimal additional
infrastructure and provide consistent, proven indoor connectivity
to hard-to-reach sensors in the utility network,” said Marc Pegulu,
Vice President of IoT for Semtech’s Wireless and Sensing Products
Group. “LoRaWAN is the de facto leader for LPWAN and smart metering
is one of its most successful and proven vertical markets.”
