| I.P Abstract & Summary |
The present invention relates to an ultrasonic water meter having a structure in which an ultrasonic sensor is directly coupled to a water pipe. The ultrasonic water meter is a full-electronic type using a measurement pipe in which the influence of an air layer generated in the water pipe is minimized, and the measurement is highly reliable as there is no difference in the water flow path due to location in the measurement pipe. The ultrasonic water meter is provided with functions of a smart meter having a means which can display, on an information-displaying display device (LCD) of the meter, information about the amount of water used and information indicating the operational state and usage state of the meter, and can provide same to a remote management system. |
