If the water meter loses connection with the system for some reason, it can still operate independently and continue to perform the anti-rust dead valve function.
Working principle of the anti-rust dead valve function: The water meter is designed with an anti-rust dead valve function, which is achieved by automatically switching the valve twice a month. The purpose of this operation is to simulate the normal activity of the valve in actual use, and prevent the internal components of the valve from being stationary for a long time through regular small movements, thereby avoiding rust or jamming caused by the accumulation of moisture, impurities or oxides inside the valve. Through regular automatic switching operations, the water meter can ensure that the valve is in good working condition and improve the overall operation stability and reliability.
Connection relationship with the system: Although the water meter is usually connected to the system through the network to achieve remote monitoring and control functions, not all water meter functions rely on system connection. The anti-rust dead valve function is an independent function built into the water meter, and its operation does not depend on the connection status of the external system. The water meter is equipped with a high-performance processor and memory, which can store and execute the preset program of the anti-rust dead valve function. Therefore, even if the water meter loses connection with the system, it can still automatically open and close the valve according to the preset program to ensure the normal execution of the anti-rust dead valve function.
Ability to operate independently: The ability of the water meter to operate independently is particularly important when it loses connection with the system. In this case, the water meter needs to rely on its own built-in functions and resources to perform the necessary operations to ensure the normal operation of the equipment. For the anti-rust dead valve function, even if the water meter loses connection with the system, it can still automatically open and close the valve according to the preset schedule. This function is realized by the timer and controller inside the water meter, which can ensure that the valve automatically opens and closes at the predetermined time to prevent the occurrence of rust dead valve phenomenon. This function is not affected by the connection status of the external system, so the water meter can still maintain the normal operation of the anti-rust dead valve function even in the case of system failure, network interruption or human interference.
Importance of system connection: Although the anti-rust dead valve function can operate independently, the connection with the system is crucial to realize the remote monitoring and control function of the water meter. System connection enables the management department to understand the water meter readings, water use and other information in real time, and perform remote control operations, such as remote opening and closing of water valves.
In summary, if the water meter loses connection with the system for some reason, it will still be able to operate independently and continue to perform the anti-rust dead valve function, but it will lose the remote monitoring and control function.
