FIREFLY for
water meters
The FIREFLY
for water meters represents a breakthought in AMR
technology. It is the first solution to deliver a universally compatible
interfacing strategy teamed with integrated ProfilePLUS™ Usage
Profiling
in an economical package.
Universal Compatibility
FIREFLY Meter Interface Units (MIUs)
install
in under five minutes on virtually any meter. The
unique
optic sensor automates meters without
electronic output registers. The FIREFLY Optic
Sensor Model is the first technology for
automating
meters without electronic registers. Wired-end Model
FIREFLY's support all the popular pulse and encoder
registers.
FIREFLY eliminates the need for meter changeout for
the purpose of AMR implementation and can save utilities
millions
of dollars in meters and installation labor.
Install FIREFLY on your existing meters!
Maintain the freedom to choose meters
without the unforgiving constraints of a proprietary
AMR system.

pulse and encoded registers
- Leak Detection
- Tamper Detection
- Battery Status Indicator
- Above ground, below ground or
through-the-lid installation
ProfilePLUS Usage Profiling
All FIREFLY MIUs archive consumption data at user-definable intervals. For example,
when set to record at 60 minute intervals, each water FIREFLY MIU holds more
than 74 days of hourly usage! ProfilePLUS graphs are an invaluable tool for
settling usage disputes, monitoring/enforcing conservation compliance, meter
right-sizing, leak detection, virtual turn offs and much more. Click here to

FIREFLY Logical Switch™
The FIREFLY
Logical Switch (FFLS) represents another step forward
for the innovative FIREFLY AMR technology. The FFLS
combines the unshakeable accuracy of an absolute encoder
register with the low cost of a pulse register. It provides
an instant interface to Master Meter "high glass"
and similar registers on any size meter; adding yet another option to FIREFLY's
universally compatible approach to Automatic Meter Reading.

The FFLS works by sensing
the magnet embedded in the register's sweep needle.
Each revolution sends a signal that increments the
FIREFLY. Installation takes only seconds
using
a standard screwdriver. Logical Switches can be ordered
pre-potted to FIREFLY MIUs making implementation
even
simpler.
- Encoder performance without
the cost
- Interfaces to Master Meter "high
glass" and similar registers - all meter sizes
- Connects directly to FIREFLY
Water MIU in less than 1 minute
- Can be ordered pre-potted to
FIREFLY Water MIU
- No power required
