3.1 Products variants

3.1.1 aquastream® M-Bus
The aquastream® M-Bus is designed to be connected to an M-Bus network with a 2-wire cable. During
operation in the M-Bus network, the aquastream® M-Bus module is powered by the network and can provide
information according to the M-Bus protocol EN 13757-2/3. An integrated battery ensures the operation of
the measurement even in case of a prolonged power failure of the M-Bus network. At the same time, the
battery ensures that the meter reading and configuration data are backup.
3.1.2. aquastream® Radio W8 (Wireless M-Bus)
The aquastream® Radio W8 (Wireless M-Bus/OMS) is designed for mobile playback applications with
integrated radio interface. It complies with the OMS V4.0 standard and sends a frame every 16 seconds with
several pieces of information that can be read by the software. The aquastream® radio W8 module comes
with a built-in battery with a typical lifetime of 16 years (15 years operation + 1 year storage).
3.1.3. aquastream® M-Bus/Pulses
The aquastream® M-Bus/Pulses module is designed for simultaneous connection to an M-Bus network with
a 2-wire cable and to a pulse collection system with a configurable 2 or 3-wire output. During operation in
the M-Bus network, the aquastream® M-Bus/Pulses module is powered by the network and can provide
information according to the M-Bus protocol EN 13757-2/3. An integrated battery ensures the operation of
the measurement even in case of a prolonged power failure of the M-Bus network. At the same time, the
battery ensures that the meter reading and configuration data are backup. The pulse output is fully
configurable allowing several output modes (2-wire or 3-wire), pulse value selection and pulse duration.
3.1.4. aquastream® Radio L8 (LoRaWAN)
The aquastream® Radio L8 (LoRaWAN) is designed for fixed network applications with integrated radio
interface. It complies with the LoRaWAN standard and sends a frame twice a days with several pieces of
information that can be read by an LoRaWAN Gateway. The aquastream® radio L8 module comes with a
built-in battery with a typical lifetime of 16 years (15 years operation + 1 year storage).
