The Smart flow meter is equipped with a flow multimeter which gives information about the flow and consumption. The Arduino/lora board permit to share information remotely to an user app or to the agencies for remote control. The electric valve allows to shut the water on or off depending on the needs. All of the electronic components are powered by an onboard battery which can be changed or charged.
