Industry Analysis | The Changes of Smart Sensors Bring to Industrial Meter: The Era of Intelligence and Virtualization

In the future, Smart Sensors will continue to develop in the direction of intelligence, multi-function, precision, and networking, becoming an indispensable and key part of industrial instrumentation.

The Era of Smart Meter

With the development of smart sensors, application in the industrial field has driven the development of instrumentation technology, making instrumentation no longer a simple hardware entity, but an intelligent instrumentation that combines microprocessors and integrates software and hardware.

With more than 20 years of experience in smart sensors, we focus on developing products and solutions that improve quality and efficiency in the instrument industry. In his speech, Mr. Zhang Shuguang, Chairman of ADW, demonstrated an "intelligent water-saving, increased production without increasing pollution" product specifically for manufacturing companies. Solution - Industrial smart water management solution. 

Industrial Water Management Solution

The solution consists of an intelligent water system as hardware and an intelligent monitoring system as software. It combines advanced technologies such as multi-source sensing, cloud computing, and two-way communication. It provides manufacturing enterprises with functions such as real-time monitoring of flow and water quality changes, remote control of water volume, and intelligent dynamic adjustment of applicable water volume. On the premise of ensuring production quality, it can achieve green production effects of saving energy and water, increasing production without increasing pollution.

4G Network Connection, Two-way Communication

The data collected by the smart water manager in the plan can be uploaded in real time through 4G communication and work together with the industrial Internet platform responsible for overall control to achieve two-way feedback of information.

Accurate Water Control, Saving More Than 15% of Water

Certified by a professional third-party measurement and testing company, the water control accuracy of ADW's industrial intelligent water management solution is<0.33L/Min. In practical applications, many manufacturing companies using this solution have saved more than 15% of water.

Open Interface Supports Multi-Sensing Expansion

The smart water manager reserves a 485 interface to make the product application scope more open; it also supports the expansion of a variety of sensors and other components, such as pH sensors, conductivity sensors, photoelectric switches, etc., making the product perception more diversified and more. It meets the future development needs of multi-functional and highly integrated industrial instruments.

Cloud Monitoring, Remote and Efficient

The industrial intelligent water management solution has functions such as flow monitoring, data statistics, and abnormal alarms. Through the visual interface of the cloud intelligent monitoring system, the operating status and parameters of the water system can be understood more intuitively and clearly. At the same time, clients such as computers, tablets, and mobile phones can synchronize all the dynamics of the water system. Administrators can remotely control the water system anytime and anywhere, which is efficient and convenient.

The Era of Virtual Instrumentation

From another dimension, instrumentation technology is iterating towards the "virtual instrumentation" stage. The virtualization of instruments makes instruments with the same structure more flexible and reconfigurable, while improving performance and reducing costs. This change is mainly due to the addition of smart sensors.

Taking the tactile feedback actuator independently developed by ADW as an example, its application on the intelligent interactive screen of instruments can realize simultaneous operation of multiple interfaces during operation, reducing redundant button and switch designs, making the equipment more concise and intelligent, and providing industrial Manufacturing provides a safer and more reliable production environment.

In the future, smart sensors will continue to develop in the direction of intelligence, multi-function, precision, and networking, becoming an indispensable key part of industrial instrumentation, empowering industrial development, and creating greater economic and social benefits.
