Smart Meter Reading and Installation

The utility industry is moving fast towards the adoption of smart meters and automatic meter reading (AMR) technologies, which bring cost savings, better service, and improved efficiency. Getac brings you a solution for both smart meter installation and automatic meter reading that combines the features needed to deliver these gains with native ruggedness.

Fast and Accurate Readings

Automatic meter reading has two benefits for utility companies: it reduces the number of errors when compared to manual writing, and increases the speed of reading, allowing workers to do more readings per day. We work with our partners to deliver these gains to our customers.

Wi-Fi, 4G LTE and RFID Tablets for Drive-By AMR

Our tablets support Wi-Fi and RFID options to make drive-by automatic meter reading a seamless, fast, and efficient experience. Ready to adapt itself to your needs, our solution for smart meter reading and installation also offers options with dedicated GPS, 4G LTE mobile broadband, RFID, IEEE 802.11ax, and pass-through antenna ports for connectivity to high-gain GPS, WWAN and WLAN roof-mounted antennas.

Highly Readable Safety Checklists

For complying with legal standards and ensuring occupational safety is high, professionals often need to go through safety checklists and check manuals. Our LumiBond®2.0 technology delivers improved touch control and provides a display that is highly readable in areas with very different luminosity levels, providing optimal access to these critical materials.

One-Handed Data Capture with Digitiser Pen

Our offering includes multiple rugged tablets that bring the configurable options that professionals need for working with smart meters in a lightweight, rugged format. Our digitiser pen (optional) and stylus help replace pen and paper for data capture, while the devices’ cameras render many verbal descriptions unnecessary, thus making data easier to preserve and transfer and helping digitalise your operations.

Smart Meter Reading and Installation
Long Battery Life

Field professionals need to worry about many things; running out of battery should not be one of them. In addition to the long battery life you have with our devices, our solution also includes products with dual battery, hot-swap battery and bridge battery options.

Smart Meter Reading and Installation
Hands-Free

Our hands-free options, which include 2-point shoulder straps or 4-point harnesses, allow professionals to use both hands freely, improving safety and productivity.

Smart Meter Reading and Installation
Ruggedness that Saves You Money

Our solutions are inherently rugged, built to thrive in different weather conditions and withstand impacts and drops up to six foot. They are manufactured and certified by international third parties to MIL-STD 810H, and up to IP67 standards and ready to face the challenges professionals meet. Longer lifecycles and less disruption to operations help you save money.
