BOVE cutting-edge smart prepaid ultrasonic water meter for precise management and intelligent monitoring
The BOVE B97 VPW is a state-of-the-art smart prepaid ultrasonic water meter, combining advanced ultrasonic technology with IoT communication.

The BOVE B97 VPW is a state-of-the-art smart prepaid ultrasonic water meter, combining advanced ultrasonic technology with IoT (Internet of Things) communication. Designed to enhance operational efficiency and provide transparent water consumption management for utilities, it ensures accurate measurement while enabling remote monitoring.
Smart valve for arrears prevention, a key highlight of the BOVE B97 VPW is its intelligent motor-operated ball valve, designed for precise control of water flow. When a user’s balance runs low, the meter automatically shuts off the water supply, preventing unpaid usage while encouraging timely payments and responsible consumption.
To ensure long-term reliability, the valve features an automated periodic rotation mechanism that prevents deposit build-up, maintaining smooth operation.

Flexible recharge and user control
Unlike traditional postpaid meters, the BOVE B97 VPW operates on a prepaid basis, allowing users to recharge according to their actual water usage. This eliminates the risk of unexpectedly high bills. With recharge options via remote payment system, users can easily check their balance and manage water consumption, ensuring that costs remain under control at all times.

Remote monitoring and data management, equipped with IoT technologies like LoRaWAN, GPRS, and NB-IoT, the BOVE B97 VPW enables data uploads to central management systems. Water utilities can remotely monitor meter status, track balances, detect leaks, and address issues proactively, improving operational efficiency and reducing the risk of water wastage or system damage. Additionally, the meter supports both internal and external antennas, ensuring stable communication across diverse signal environments.

Leak detection and reverse flow monitoring for system protection
In addition to its prepaid functionality, the BOVE B97 VPW also offers advanced leak detection and reverse flow monitoring. These features help users identify water leakage early and protect the utility system from potential damage caused by backflow, minimizing both resource waste and repair costs.
The BOVE B97 VPW Smart Prepaid Ultrasonic Water Meter provides a comprehensive solution for smarter water management. With its precise measurement capabilities and advanced monitoring features, it delivers enhanced efficiency and transparency for both users and water utilities.
