The intelligent and energy-independent iSAtech prepaid dispensing systems also offer great advantages for industrial and irrigation applications. Differentiated tariffs can be used, e.g., depending on the time of day, and online billing and consumption data acquisition is also possible. The prepaid method protects the supplier from payment default or delay. A secure and transparent supply is ensured for the consumer.

Tanker filling station

In many places, water tankers perform the essential task of supplying water. Especially in remote areas, a tanker filling station with the prepaid meter simplifies the billing of bulk water customers. These stations can be staffed or completely self-sufficient.
Tanker drivers top up their credit either via card at any top-up stations or via the Internet. Depending on the profile, water can be withdrawn until the tanker is filled, the card is removed or the credit is used up. The prepaid meter provides water utilities with greater control over the actual water usage of each tanker refill station, protecting against lost payments. Each transaction can be tracked with the logs from the point of sale terminals, prepaid software and dispensing units.

Irrigation

For modern, efficient irrigation, the delivery units can be used not only in prepaid mode. They are also an intelligent and remotely configurable distribution instrument. For this purpose, the flexible control units can also be combined with existing, electronically controllable valves and water meters. For example, the integrated automatic tariffing system can be configured with time-dependent volumes, so that irrigation works with predefined volumes at fixed times of day and year. Of particular interest in this case is remote configuration via GSM network.

industrial facilities

For the water supply of industry, it may be necessary to optimize or restrict the supply. There are situations where customers, such as farms, factories or mines, account for up to 90% of local water demand. In these cases, the delivery units can be equipped with a differentiated time profile in order to have a better influence on the demand.

This gives the water suppliers the opportunity to influence demand via the water price without having a strong impact on the consumers. The supplier can use the time profiles to increase the water prices for industrial consumers during peak periods.
In times of lower demand, the normal or reduced prices can be charged. This creates the opportunity to smooth peak demand and increase the availability of water at a given capacity. For this purpose, iSAtech's prepaid meters can also be integrated into existing infrastructures and use existing fittings.

Prepaid Meter - iSAtech Prepaid Meter Bulk

The iSA Bulk is available with the remote control unit. This allows flexible installation of the system. Alternatively, the system can also be installed in a robust housing.
