The Difference Between NBIOT Water Meter and Lorawan Water Meter

The Internet of Things has a magical power. It collides with artificial intelligence, cloud computing, big data, and other technologies to "wipe" strange sparks, helping traditional enterprises to upgrade intelligently. In the field of water meters, water meter experts use the magical technology of the Internet of Things to create one after another high-precision products. The most popular ones are NB-IoT water meters and lora water meters. These two products are the "leaders" of the Internet of Things smart water meter. For buyers, how to choose? What are the differences between them? Please follow the footsteps of the editor to find out.

The transmission principle of NB-IoT water meter is that the NB-IoT narrowband IoT module is installed inside the water meter. The water meter collects data through NB-IoT and then transmits it to the water supply administrator cloud platform through the operator's base station to realize the refined management of data remote meter reading, monitoring, valve control, intelligent control, air payment, stepped water price, water quality analysis, etc., to achieve refined data analysis. Compared with traditional water meters, NB-IoT water meters greatly improve the management efficiency of water supply enterprises, and have core features such as low power consumption, wide coverage, and strong anti-interference. The LORA water meter network transmission has limitations, and the meter reading process adds a concentrator as a link.

The lora water meter uses lora technology. The birth of lora technology is earlier than that of NB-IoT. The lora water meter uses the wireless ad hoc network technology to realize the remote centralized reading of the remote water meter, the concentrator, and the computer. Compared with the meter reading solution of NBIOT water meter, there is an additional concentrator, which is widely used in greenhouses, chemical plants, military meters, hospitals, fruit and vegetable storage warehouses and other places.

This is the main difference between NB-IoT water meter and Lora water meter. The NB-IoT water meter has better advantages and is suitable for residential areas, rural wells, apartments, office buildings, hotels, and other places, while the lora water meter is suitable for water supply places such as factories.
