M170iThe multi-jet meter with communication interface

The M170 series is the market reference for robust and durable measurement.Featuring the esens resonant target interface, the M170i is compatible with the full range of Honeywell’s smart metering modules

The modular concept

Honeywell offers a full range of clip-on modules with proven

reliability and advanced data features, helping water utilities

meet their business needs.

• Pulse

• Mbus

• wireless Mbus

• LPWAN (LoRa, SigFox)

Integration and upgrade of the M170i to any of these

systems is possible at any stage during their operational

life.

Patented esens inductive pulse interface for communication modules

esens interface

Inductive multi-sensing incremental encoders have been

introduced onto the market for several years.

Honeywell is taking the technology to it’s next level, using the

eSens resonant target innovation to ensure optimum output

reliability, under even the most challenging installation condi-

tions worldwide.

High resolution interface

M170i is providing a high resolution output in all fl ow condi-

tions enabling peak, low, burst & reverse fl ow event detection.

Only with this advanced edge analytic data can the real

return on investment of any smart metering deployment be

realized, no matter if it is to incease customer service, reduce

non revenue water (NRW), secure 24/7 supply, improve theft

detection or reduce pumping cost.

… reliableFit for purpose, achieving the specifi ed

battery lifetime (up to 15y), providing

accurate data and best in class reading

performance under all harsh environ-

mental conditions, 24/7. This is key to

HUE - the Honeywell User Experience,

as water meters may be installed in per-

manently fl ooded pits, exposed to direct

sunlight or where mechanical shock,

vibrations, magnetic fi elds and tamper

attempts are the reality.

Honeywell communication modules

… diverseThe portfolio includes pulse & wired

Mbus modules as well as radio

modules using Wavenis, wireless Mbus,

Sigfox or LoRa WAN protocol on 169,

433, or 868 MHz.

… universal in handlingThe same modules can be used with the

full range of Honeywell’s residential

water meters (volumetric, single-jet,

multi jet). They fi t to traditional hori-

zontal registers as well as to 45° read

registers.

… system compatibleHONEYWELL provides interoperable

clip-on communication modules.

They can be integrated into third party

software tools and networks or read via

METRo, Honeywell’s smart water MDC

solution.

Using customer’s “BYOD” or Honeywell’s

CT50 rugged Android handheld, a Blue-

tooth RF interface and the cloud based

head end software.

45° Register The optional 45° reading design ensures horizon-

tal meter orientation for best possible performance

when installation space is limited. This helps to

avoid water loss and reading errors.

M170iBenefi ts and advantages

The M170i utilises state of the art technology. Over time, the performance of the meter has been opti-mised through advanced design features, materials and manufacturing processes. The M170i stands for reliability, durability and versatility. Its AMR interface guarantees maximum fl exibility and secured lifetime investment.

Improved readabilityThe register concept with white numbers

on black rollers maximises digit contrast to

ensure accurate reading where light and

visibility is poor.

Robust Module FixtureThe three-point fi xing consists of a

location tab and metal screws in

the shroud - not in the register!

Communication modules are inter-

changeable without the risk of

damaging the register.

Encapsulated RegisterThe register housing is IP68 sealed

to ensure long-term readability. An

optional metallic hot-pin shield further

reduces the risk of mechanical tamper.

Unmatched DurabilityThe rotor is hydrodynamically balanced. Its

bearings are made of stainless steel, high-

performance polyamides and sapphire.

The Meter is characterized by a long lasting

accuracy.

Magnet ShieldingThe double magnetic

shield ensures protection

against external magnetic

fi elds and avoids decou-

pling of the magnetic

drive or loss of sensitivity.

M170i helps to reduce

non-revenue consump-

tion.
