Stand Alone MeterS
Some properties only require a stand alone few water meters to monitor key tenants or house loads. QMC stocks inline, manual read water meters ranging from 3/4″ to 3 for these applications. QMC also supplies insertion water meters for larger pipe sizes. Please call your QMC representative for price and delivery on these meters. For complete water meter systems, please see the below sections.

GWF
For automated water submeter systems, QMC supplies GWF M-Bus enabled meters. This Swiss-made meter line offers top-of-the-line accuracy and reliability. M-Bus communications provide absolute register reads, which ensures meter data integrity.
Please ask us for more information on the GWF meter system and M-Bus communications.
Key Features:
- Swiss made: quality products provide longer meter life and improved accuracy
- Wide range of meter sizes: from ¾” to 6”
- High Accuracy so utility costs are recovered: GWF Water solutions meet EN 14154 standards for accuracy – MID (EN1434) is what Measurement Canada will base Canadian standards upon
- Installation cost savings: M-Bus provides substantial savings over traditional pulse wiring, especially when thermal and water meters are grouped on one network
- Fool-proof wiring: polarity neutral and disconnection is immediately detected
- Absolute Data removes lost reads and bill disputes: M-Bus ensures automated systems do not loose consumption values on the meter – the actual register read is what is transmitted
Badger
For stand-alone and large commercial water submeter applications, QMC supplies Badger RTR water meters. American-made and known for utility-grade accuracy and durability. All Badger meters come with a digital pulse output.
Key Features:
- Wide range of meter sizes: from ¾” to 6”

1. MDT – The QMC Wireless Metering Data Transceiver records data from the encoded water meters and transmits to the repeater or master. It is compatible with most main building utility meters and the GWF Encoded line of products.
2. RF – Network Diversity Repeater from QMC receives radio messages from MDTs and other repeaters and then transmits the message with its high power radio toward the data-collecting DCAP. The repeater extends the range of the two-way radio signals between MDTs and DCAP.
3. DCAP – The QMC Data Concentrating Access Point/Master is the heart of the system and incorporates a powerful computer and integrated radio transceiver. It communicates with the MDTs and Repeaters and stores all meter interval data.
