Automatic meter readings (AMR/AMI)
As a water and energy provider you need a flexible solution for remotely reading consumption meters that is tailored to your precise needs. Whether you are interested in a mobile meter reading solution (Automatic Meter Reading – AMR), a high-performance communications network (Advanced Metering Infrastructure – AMI), or a combination of the two, we can assist you with a wide range of communication solutions.
For more than 20 years, Diehl Metering, a technology leader in AMR/AMI, has been using its IZAR RADIO technology to reliably gather data from a wide range of meters in the field and transmit this data to its IZAR software platform. In this way, our solutions realize a continuous data stream – from the measuring device to monitoring, data management and analysis. Obtain accurate reading date values, for example on moving in/out dates, simply and efficiently via mobile readings or a Fixed Network.
In the spirit of multi utility providers, Diehl Metering solutions allow you to read water, thermal energy, gas and electricity meters across all sectors via the same infrastructure. This reduces your costs per metering point and increases overall efficiency.
HYDRUS
ULTRASONIC METER
HYDRUS is a static water meter based on the ultrasonic technology. This technology enables accurate calculation of water consumption and eliminates measuring deviations caused by sand, suspended particles or air pockets.

Leak and pipe burst detection
MID approval up to R=400 (cold water) and R=160 (hot water)
No straight line required
No measurement of air
Insensitive to scale and sand
Installation in any position
Battery lifetime up to 16 years
Available in cold water version and hot water version
Available with integrated radio 434 or 868 MHz, M-Bus or pulse
Data communication in Prios, Real data or Open Metering protocol (selectable OMS Generation 3 profile A or OMS Generation 4 profile B)
HYDRUS 2.0 BULK
ULTRASONIC METER
HYDRUS 2.0 BULK is a static water meter operating on ultrasonic measuring technology. This technology enables accurate calculation of water consumption with long-term stability and eliminates measuring deviations caused by sand, suspended particles, scale or air pockets. Moreover it does not require any earthing.
Developed within the framework of the MID, HYDRUS 2.0 BULK complies with the European regulations and holds sanitary conformity certificates (ACS, WRAS, KTW/W270 and others).
Its integrated radio enables remote reading of the meter’s index and alarms both in mobile (walk-by, drive-by, passive drive-by) and fixed network mode.
HYDRUS 2.0 BULK offers a wide choice of connectivities compatible with the different IZAR reading modes.
A complete Diehl Metering solution is thus available to meet your needs.
The HYDRUS 2.0 BULK saves 512 consumption values daily . This data can be read locally and accessed only by using the IZAR@MOBILE 2. As a second logging, a small amount of 32 monthly consumption values can be stored. Both the radio protocol and the optical interface are encrypted by default.
