Measuring water, oil, <br />chemicals, and other fluids, Badger Meter products are known for accuracy, <br />long-lasting durability and for providing and timely measurement data. <br />badgermeter.com <br />Orion SE endpoints allow for mobile (drive by reading) and then the same endpoint becomes a fixed network AMI <br />solution once network gateways are installed in the area. No reprograming of the endpoint is required. Being that it <br />is a smart endpoint, when it makes contact with an installed gateway it changes over to a higher powered, fixed <br />network radio. <br />Orion SE (Smart Endpoint) supports full Cellular endpoints and uses the local cell towers and networks to <br />communicate to the head end system. Badger were the only vendor that discussed a cost per read charge for the <br />attainment of a meter reading. The infrastructure, hardware and software is fully outsourced and they charge 89 <br />cents per meter reading obtained. This cost is prohibitive to the business case unless this charge is passed on to the <br />customer. <br />The Orion endpoints will work with Badger, Sensus, Neptune, Elster, and Hersey meters as well as Master Meter <br />Octave meters. All require a three wire encoder register. <br />© Langham Consulting Services Inc.
