Taking Remote Gas Shutoff Beyond Simple To Next Level

摘要

Each year gas utilities issue thousands of orders to shut off service for a variety of reasons. And, if an employee is unable to access the meter on the first visit, additional trips are required. This drives up operational costs, decreases productivity - and potentially increases exposure to liabilities. This is why Sensus, a utility infrastructure company providing metering and communications technology solutions for gas, electric and water utilities, has worked closely with gas industry engineers to develop the first stand-alone Remote Gas Shutoff (RGS) device. The result is a versatile, programmable device that offers much more than its name implies, enabling operations personnel to efficiently and remotely perform duties from gas meter shut off to safety monitoring.
