RIO TRONICS CORP.

Capture high-resolution, contact closure digital outputs from Neptune water meters with the RIO Tronics Corp. NT10-4P WaterRead unit. To enable monitoring and controlling of rate and consumption, this unit is fully submersible, with a 10-foot lead wire and a 1/2-inch female conduit fitting. It easily retrofits all T10s, HPT, and TT Series meters with the same device. It also fits between the meter index and meter body, includes original type security seals for resealing, and allows retention of Neptune radio reporting devices. Accuracy is tested by three different labs, and approved for military and industrial use. It enables a direct Neptune meter connection to data loggers, energy management systems, and meter reading systems.www.riotronics.com

SMITH & LOVELESS The exclusive design of the Smith & Loveless (S&L) Non-Clog Pump lends itself to significant energy efficiency savings for wastewater and stormwater pumping. S&L Non-Clog Pump design features an oversized, stainless steel pump shaft that minimizes overhang, resulting in significantly less shaft deflection and greater pump efficiencies. Close tolerances are in all cases tighter than NEMA specifications. The impeller is also designed for maximum efficiency. By trimming the impellers inside the shrouds, the S&L pump leaves the back shroud full diameter to prevent stringy material from winding around the shaft.www.smithandloveless.com

KAMSTRUP WATER METERING LLC READy makes meter reading simpler. This AMR application from Kamstrup offers automatic reading from the convenience of an Android smartphone or tablet.
