EDC B.One – Electronic Data Capture Modul

1. General information

1.1 Intended Use

The EDC module (Electronic Data Capture) is used
to capture and transmit meter information from
ZENNER water meters. It is intended for mounting
on associated ZENNER water meters. The module
is used in the area of water management and con-
sumption recording. Users are usually utility compa-
nies and service providers in the area of consump-
tion billing, energy monitoring, etc. Only qualified
specialist personnel should carry out the retrofitting
and commissioning of the modules. Operational
safety is only guaranteed if the product is used as
intended according to the manufacturer. No liability
is accepted for damage caused by other uses. Any
modification is only permitted with the approval of
the manufacturer. Otherwise, the manufacturer's
declaration becomes invalid.
1.2 Inductive scanning module for water meters
The EDC module for non reactive electronic pulse de-
tection of all ZENNER water meters whose registers
are equipped with modulator disc is ideally suited
for secure remote reading and integration of water
meters in AMR/AMI systems.

1.3 Intended purpose

Retrofit radio, M-Bus or pulse module for water
meters for readout purposes and data
transmission to mobile or stationary receivers.
This product is part of the digital B.One solution
world.

1.4 Scope of supply

EDC module with installation manual,
fixing screw(s),
yellow adhesive securing mark(s),
water meter lid

1.5 Typical applications:

Wireless remote readout of water meters with
■
walk-by or drive-by system
Wireless remote readout of water meters via
■
LPWA-networks (LoRaWAN®)
Radio transmission of the readings to mobile or
■
stationary receivers
Remote meter reading via M-Bus Systems
■
Remote meter reading via GSM module
■
Accurate metering of fluids in the industrial and
■
commercial segment
The EDC communication module ensures that in
case of remote transmission of the readings, the
current status will be transmitted. There is no replica
of the meter index due to pulse counting. The pulse
detection of the register's modulator disc occurs
electronically and without retroaction on the reg-
ister. The electronics detects reverse pulses which
will be computed internally, so that by means of the
EDC module the current status of the register will be
transmitted and read remotely.
The EDC module is available in the following model
variants:
Wireless M-Bus module in accordance with EN
■
13757-4 (868 MHz)
LPWAN radio module for LoRaWAN®- EDC radio mo-
■
dule switchable between wM-Bus and LoRaWAN®
Wired M-Bus module, EN 13757-3 (for export
■
markets)
Pulse module with forward and reverse flow
■
detection (for export markets)
Combined M-Bus and pulse module (for the
■
DACH region)
The EDC modules are battery-powered. Details on
the respective service life are specified in the techni-
cal data tables and in the device user guides.
