Our company develops cellular modems that work smoothly and are fully compatible with the Honeywell electricity meters, which represent a future-proof migration solution
to the LTE network.

This modem can readout (the measured energy consumption of the connected electricity meters) remotely for the request of the HES center.

The device can also readout the alarms of the meters, then push them to the HES center by DLMS protocol.

 

Quick Specifications — WM-E3S MBUS
Device type Smart electricity metering cellular modem

Connection possibilities:

  • 1 electricity meter to the modem
  • 4 M-Bus standard water meters to the modem

The consumption values of connected M-Bus water meters can be readout by our modem in „pull” mode via DLMS protocol.

The device was designed to fit under the terminal cover of the meter and it is compliant with the Honeywell® standard.

Configuration and firmware updates can be done remotely by the WM-E Term® software, minimizing the need for costly site visits.
