Ultrasonic water meter is able to provide<strong> high-precision flow measurement<\/strong>, and its performance will not degrade over time.<\/p><p>3. Many residential ultrasonic water meters <strong>support multiple communication interfaces<\/strong>, such as NB-IoT, LoRaWAN, Bluetooth, etc., which are convenient for remote monitoring and data transmission.<\/p><p>4. Ultrasonic water meters <strong>are able to detect very low flow rates<\/strong>, about 5 to 10 liters per hour (L\/hr), which is equivalent to approximately 0.083 to 0.167 liters per minute (L\/min). This can effectively reduce the omitted record of water usage caused by not closing the tap and other water-using equipment in household water management.<\/p><p>5.
