Click-On. Dual-stack LOR-4 module

The Click-on Dual-stack LOR-4 module enabled by the LoRaWAN® standard or wM-BUS offers versatile connectivity options for IoT applications. Installation on water meters for taking readings from the speed disk using optical sensors and data transmission via LoRaWAN® or connect using wM-BUS (EU EN13757-4).

Field of application: are assigned to industrial measurements of water usage up to 30 degrees of cold water and up to 130 degrees of hot water in relatively regular and strong flaw rate.

Supported meters

Propeller (Woltman) water meters with a horizontal rotor axis, parallel to the piping. Measuring range up to R200
MWN, MWN 130 Nubis; -NKOP, MWN/JS, MP, MK, MH, MWN, MWN/JS (DN from 40 to 125), JS (DN from 40 to 100) (production "Apator Powogaz S.A.", Poland)

The Dual-stack LOR-4 module works by integrating two communication protocols into a single device, allowing it to support both LoRaWAN® and wM-BUS connectivity.

1. LoRaWAN® Communication: The module can communicate with LoRaWAN® networks. It transmits and receives data packets over long distances, making it ideal for IoT applications that require low power, long-range connectivity.

2. wM-BUS Communication: The module also supports the wM-BUS protocol, which is commonly used for wireless metering applications. It enables the module to communicate using the wM-BUS (EN13757-4 standard) for data transmission.

Dual-Stack Capability: The module is designed to handle both LoRaWAN® or wM-BUS communication independently. This dual-stack capability allows for flexible deployment in diverse IoT scenarios where devices may need to communicate using either connection technics.
Users can configure the module's settings, such as network parameters, communication frequency, data rate, and encryption keys, to ensure seamless integration with the target network infrastructure.

The Click-On Dual-Stack LOR-4 module is ideal for monitoring and controlling cold and hot water supply systems in various environments, including:

1. Apartments: The module can be installed on water meters in apartments to record water consumption and transmit the data wirelessly via LoRaWAN® or wM-BUS. This enables accurate billing and monitoring of water consumption in multi-family buildings.

2. Private homes: In private homes, the dual-stack module can be installed on water meters to track water consumption and send consumption data to residents or utility companies. This helps to optimize water consumption and detect potential leaks at an early stage.

3. Companies: For companies, the module offers the possibility to monitor water consumption in office buildings, manufacturing plants or other business facilities. The data can be used for analysis and to improve operational efficiency.

4. Public facilities: The dual stack module can also be used in public facilities such as schools, hospitals, sports facilities or government buildings to control water consumption and use resources more efficiently.
