Description

Neptune’s R450 System yields a host of valuable information from a true two-way fixed network solution. From system-wide, time-synchronized meter readings from each meter to District Metered Area (DMA) analysis down to the neighborhood level to GIS/GPS mapping that shows exactly where system conditions need attention to priority alarm configurations to notify select personnel of critical leak, tamper, and reverse flow conditions in near real-time, advanced metering infrastructure (AMI) data from Neptune can determine Non-Revenue Water, assist with managing water restrictions and other conservation measures, and significantly enhance customer service.
