Sensus has unveiled its new ultrasound static water meter, Cordonel, that has been designed to help achieve a smarter utility network

A versatile metering system, Cordonel helps users manage distribution networks more efficiently, thereby contributing to better water resource management, through accurate and reliable data.

Sensus is showcasing Cordonel, along with its suite of innovative solutions, at WETEX 2019, taking place from 21 to 23 October in Dubai. Suitable for any commercial and industrial application ? from water distribution supply to irrigation management ? the new technology will help support the vital pillar of the UAE?s Vision 2021 agenda ? to be the best in the world at preserving water resources.

Cordonel is an intelligent response to two of the major challenges that network managers face including lack of hyper-accurate metrology to detect the smallest leaks, and the lack of a connected meter that communicates critical network data in real-time. By addressing these, it will help tackle leakage and save costs, enabling managers to optimise daily maintenance to increase the uptime of the network.

Francois Frigaux, regional director, Middle East and North Africa, Sensus, said, ?Cordonel is a revolutionary innovation that will enable water utility networks to draw on rich real-time data for unprecedented insights on water usage.?

Cordonel brings several features including three measuring paths that make installation easy and embedded communications for real-time data transmission for all aspects of the network, such as leakage and wear and tear.
