Single-phase smart meter withcellular communications

Liberty 120 is a single-phase, single-element smart meter that provides flexibility through a modular design to accommodate the latest cellular communications technologies. Liberty 120 paves the way for reliable data transfer, making it the ideal solution for smart metering applications. The meter supports firmware upgrade, allowing metering and communications features, functionality to be updated in the field. Liberty 120 meters are 'fit for purpose' for all contestable and embedded metering installations. This enhances flexibility and makes the investment future-proof. The meters can be used for individual domestic or small commercial applications as well as for co-located metering installations in master-child configuration, offering value for money with reduced Capex and inventory. The Liberty 120 smart meter forms part of the Secure's liberty online smart metering solution. Refer liberty online brochure for system details.
