Smart Electromagnetic Meter Produced by Iranian Specialists for Agricultural Industry
“The most prominent product of our company is the smart electromagnetic meter which is mostly used in the agricultural industry,” Mohammad Aref, an expert working for the knowledge-based company active in the agriculture and water industry, told ANA.
Noting that the equipment and technology used in the device are all produced by the Iranian specialists, he said, “Electromagnetic sensors is the special technology used in this product and they enjoy the capability to accurately measure voltage. The basis of the work of this product is the magnetic field and a magnetic field is created with the fluid that has the least conductivity. Then, the positive and negative particles are separated and based on the Faraday's law (electromagnetic field induction), the voltage is measured and finally the water’s passing speed is obtained.”
Aref explained that a smart meter reading web application has also been designed by the team, adding that all information is sent to the user by putting a SIM card on the smart meter device.
In a relevant development in January, a group of engineers at a technological company in Iran had also designed and manufactured special ultrasonic meters that can accurately measure the consumption of water on a daily, monthly and yearly basis.
“The ultrasonic water meters are used to monitor the amount of water consumed at houses,” said Amir Hossein Kimiayee Assadi, the manager of the technological company stationed at the Science and Technology Park of Hamedan province in Western Iran.
He added that the advantage of these ultrasonic meters over mechanical meters is their high measurement accuracy, and stated, “These meters also enjoy low depreciation and since they are equipped with IOT (Internet of Things) technology, they can communicate with the user through the cellphone software.”
“These meters are capable of providing data to the user on the daily, monthly and yearly consumption of water in the house,” Kimiayee Assadi said.
He noted that the meter provides the possibility of establishing two-way contacts between the regional and provincial water departments and the users, paving the ground for fining the customers whose water consumption is outside the standard patterns.
