Smart Water Metering Solution
The Smart Water Metering solution enables automatic and remote water consumption monitoring using Diehl smart water meters with LoRaWAN® communication. The system eliminates manual meter reading and allows utilities, municipalities, building owners and industries to monitor water consumption remotely in real time.
The solution is based on LoRaWAN® technology, which enables long-range wireless communication with very low power consumption. This makes it ideal for large water distribution networks, buildings, industrial facilities and smart city applications.
How the Smart Water Metering System Works
Diehl water meters equipped with LoRaWAN modules automatically measure water consumption and transmit the data via LoRaWAN network to a gateway. The gateway forwards the data to a network server and then to an IoT platform where the user can monitor consumption, receive alarms and generate reports.
The system allows remote meter reading, consumption analysis, leak detection and monitoring of the water network without the need for on-site visits.
System Architecture

A typical smart water metering system consists of the following components:
- Diehl smart water meters with LoRaWAN module
- LoRaWAN Gateways
- LoRaWAN Network Server (ChirpStack, The Things Network, Actility)
- IoT Platform / Dashboard
- Data analytics and alarm system
System Flow
Water Meter → LoRaWAN → Gateway → Network Server → IoT Platform → Dashboard / Alerts / Reports
