A gas meter already installed in a building measures correctly — what it cannot do is report. Reading it means sending someone to the door, and anything unusual between visits goes unnoticed until the next one.
Navisys meter communicators attach to the meter that is already there, mechanical or microcomputer, and give it a cellular link. No rewiring, no mains supply: the unit runs on its own battery with a 10-year standby, encrypts its traffic with AES 256 and reports to a cloud platform.
Meters that are already installed, in places with no power
The communicator fits the meter that is already on the wall and runs on its own battery, so a site visit means fitting one unit rather than replacing a meter or pulling in a supply.
Coverage inside meter cupboards and basements
Meters sit in exactly the places a signal struggles to reach. NB-IoT and Cat M are built for that: small messages, deep indoor penetration and very little power. Where those networks are not deployed, LTE Cat 1 uses the ordinary cellular network instead.
A battery life that matches the meter's service interval
A 10-year standby means the communicator is not a new maintenance round of its own — it can be scheduled alongside the meter it is fitted to.
Consumption data that has to stay private
Readings describe when a building is occupied, so traffic is encrypted with AES 256 between the communicator and the cloud platform.
Gas meter communicators — choose by the network available in the area
LTE Cat 1 gas meter controller on the ordinary cellular network — the one to start from where NB-IoT and Cat M are not deployed. Battery operated, 10-year standby.

Built-in Cat NB-IoT and Cat M, for areas where an LPWA network is available — the deeper indoor coverage suits meters in cupboards and basements. Battery operated, 10-year standby.
