What is a Neptune E-coder?
The E-CODER® is an electronic absolute encoder register designed for use with Neptune’s Automatic Reading and Billing (ARB®) System. This register operates with Neptune’s R900® and R450™ MIUs, providing advanced features such as leak, backflow, and tamper detection.
How do you read a Neptune E-coder water meter?
To read a Neptune E-Coder water meter: 1. Shine a flashlight on the photoelectric eye (look for the flashlight symbol) to activate screen. The screen eventually will begin to flash between “Reading” and “Rate”.
What is a Neptune E-coder R900?
Neptune’s E-CODER®, when connected to R900® or R450™ MIUs, provides a high-resolution, 8-digit remote meter reading, as well as leak, tamper, and reverse flow detection.
What is E-coder R900i?
The E-CODER)R900i is an integrated register containing both the E-CODER® and R900® technologies in one register that collects meter data. It then transmits the data that a meter reader collects.
How does a Neptune water meter work?
A water meter is a device that records water consumption. Your water meter is connected to a transmitter, which takes consumption information and sends (transmits) it to a remote reading device that collects this data. This information is then used for billing purposes.
How do you read a Neptune meter in gallons?
If the meter reads in Cubic Feet, simply multiply the difference by 7.48 to convert to gallons.
How do you read gallons on a Neptune meter?
Once you have both readings you will subtract the two readings to get the number of gallons (or cubic feet) used! If the meter reads in Cubic Feet, simply multiply the difference by 7.48 to convert to gallons.
What is an encoder water meter?
Badger Meter offers the latest innovation in both mechanical and electronic high-resolution encoders. Our encoders convert flow data into an electronic format for storage and transmission to AMR or AMI endpoints and industrial network systems.
How does a Neptune Water Meter work?
Can you stop a water meter with a magnet?
A neodymium magnet influences the magnetic clutch of the dry dial water meter, causing a complete stop of its measurement despite flowing water (Figure 3).
How can you tell if you have a water leak with a digital meter?
For Digital Display (LCD) Meters Observe the flow rate screen for at least 10 flashes. If the number is greater than zero on any of the flashes, you have a continuous leak . Some leaks are very slow and may not show as a continuous flow.
