FIREFLY
Automatic Meter Reading System
TheFIREFLY
Automatic Meter Reading System represents a breakthrough
in AMR technology. Two features make it unique:
Universal Compatibility
Because of their innovative design, FIREFLY Meter Interface
Units (MIUs) are compatible with virtually ANY water,
gas or electric meter. This makes FIREFLY the first
universally compatible AMR system in the industry and enables utilities to . . .
- Use EXISTING meters and registers
- Maintain the freedom to purchase
any brand or model of meter; without being constrained
by a proprietary AMR system.
- Realize new streams of revenue
by arranging to read other utilities' meters using
existing AMR infrastructure.
ProfilePLUS Usage Profiling
All FIREFLY MIUs archive consumption data at user-definable
intervals. In addition, the electric FIREFLY MIU
records
the peak demand interval (15-minute) for both the current
and past 30-day periods. For example, when set to
record
hourly readings, each water FIREFLY can hold over 74
days of hourly consumption readings and the gas
FIREFLY
can hold over 330! Electric MIUs store data at 15-minute
intervals for more than 169 days. ProfilePLUS is
a new
tool for . . .
