WATER METERS

Corporate Presentation 2017

 Biggest water meter factory in Europe, annual production of 4
million water meters. (75% mechanical + 25% electronic meters)
 95% market share in Turkey and largest world exporter for
prepaid meters.
  High experience in the
market coming from the
long years - since 1999
design and production
of prepaid water meters.

 The reality that all the

big-scale prepaid water
meter projects, won by
our company.

 A good reputation in the field, Utilities continue to buy and

increase the ratio of prepaid-meter customers / traditional
metering.
 The countries we export are marked with red on the map.

 50+ design engineers (Computer, Electronics & Mechanical)

 5+ new patent applications since 2016, about new measurement

technics alternative to ultrasonic integrated circuits.

 A team of Academic staff (Professor and full-time Phy Dr.) from

technical universities involved in R&D projects

 7 active R&D projects registered and supported by TUBITAK

(Turkish National Scientific Research Organization)

 Baylan R&D department is acredited & registered by Ministry of

Industry as a «Qualified R&D Center» since September 2016.
 IoT (Internet of Things) compliant metering solutions.

 Prepaid metering solutions with alternative charging methods to

smart cards and GPRS communication (STS, Bluetooth, Wifi)

 Low Cost Fixed network metering solutions alternative to GPRS and

Ethernet communication (Lora)
 AMR water meter with built in Lora Module (Integrated and Compact
solution, no need to additional retrofittable amr modules)

 Implementing UM1-Lora Modules for AMR-ready water meters.

 New mathematical models for ultrasonic time of flight measurement,
reducing cost and power consumption.

 Ultrasonic - Digital processing of Transmitted & reflected sound

signals, increasing the resolution of the time measurement to 20
picoseconds.

 Eliminating the requirement for discrete Analog Front End and

additional high cost electronic components, resulting a lower cost for
ultrasonic water meters.
 Wireless MBUS (Using FSK, Traditional RF principle for short range
communication)

 Lora (Long Range – Chirp Spread Spectrum fully customizable low

power communication network and meters, with lowest almost-no
communication costs.

 Sigfox (Long Range – Ultra Narrow Band low power communication

network and meters, needs investment for sigfox infrastructure by
local operators, communication costs will be defined by operators in
a similar way like GSM and GPRS.)

 Nb-IoT (Similar solution like Sigfox, which requires infrastructure and

pricing by local network operators. Hardware similar like GPRS
module)
 Bluetooth (Short range open protocol – mainly used as HMI for data
entering to and/or reading from water meter. Secure only if it is
supported by additional security algorithms such as STS and AES)

 GPRS (internet connection to the meters from the server, directly or

over gateways. In case of direct connection, each meter must have
a built-in Gprs module and a sim card.)

 Wifi (In case of meters are installed within the coverage of a WiFi
network : Access Points, ADSL modems etc) Communication costs
may vary depending on internet service supplier.

 Built-in contactless card reader, a minimum of 100.000 read-write
operations in the field, practically everlasting.
 All electronic parts of meter
including circuit, battery,
LCD, motor, card-reader
and communication
modules completely
waterproof with an IP68
rating.
 LCD Screen
 Meter dot matrix LCD screen with a high-contrast backlight and
wide viewing angle. Very useful feature in the field, for reading the
meter's consumption & balance particularly when the meter is
installed in dark places.

 Avoid customer complaints

such as they can not see the
screen messages.

 Some manufacturers prefer cheap individual leds to put under the

LCD glass, which does not give a smooth & clear view, thus
causing both customer and utility staff complaints. (like the first
generation LCD TV displays, which were not possible to get an
enough view from left-right sides)
