Proven adoption of smart meters both domestically and internationally - Maintains high capacity in extreme environments from -60°C to +85°C. Eliminates the hassle of battery replacement and achieves long-term stable communication.
In the electronicization of water meters and remote reading (IoT), the most important factor is stability that is not affected by the installation environment. SaFT's lithium primary batteries go beyond being just batteries; they serve as a "power source" that reliably keeps the system running, supporting the longevity of infrastructure. 【Are you facing any of these issues?】 - Want to eliminate communication errors due to harsh outdoor temperature changes (from extreme summer heat to sub-zero winter)? - Want to reduce the frequency of battery replacements for external communication devices and achieve long-term operation? - Want to minimize the risk of sudden resets and transmission errors by enhancing the multifunctionality of communication modules? - Looking for a high energy density power source that can accommodate increased communication frequency in limited space? - Want to maintain high safety against harsh temperature changes and shocks as an infrastructure device? *For more details, please download the materials or feel free to contact us.

basic information
■ Three Capabilities to Solve On-Site Challenges 1. Avoiding communication errors due to extreme outdoor temperature fluctuations (from the scorching heat of midsummer to sub-zero temperatures in midwinter) SaFT accommodates a wide operating temperature range, including high temperatures from direct sunlight and cold snaps in winter, achieving stable pulse output at both high and low extremes. This minimizes the risks of "resend costs" and "on-site investigations" associated with data loss. 2. Achieving maintenance-free operation through "long lifespan characteristics" and optimizing total cost of ownership (TCO) With an extremely low self-discharge rate, SaFT enables long-term operation and reduces the frequency of battery replacements. Additionally, by minimizing maintenance after installation and reducing discarded batteries, it significantly contributes to environmental burden reduction (SDGs). 3. "High reliability" honed in domestic and international infrastructure markets In addition to a wealth of achievements in Europe, a leader in smart meters, there are already proven results in the domestic smart meter market, making it a continued choice in development sites that demand high reliability.

Applications/Examples of results
[Case Study] Paris Water Authority: Optimization of Smart Meter Operations [Challenges] It was necessary to accurately understand the remaining lifespan of each meter based on the actual usage conditions of the meters installed on-site. Additionally, the conventional uniform replacement cycle could lead to discrepancies with actual usage conditions, resulting in increased costs due to excessive replacements and risks of unexpected failures. [Measures and Results] To continue data acquisition, we analyzed the batteries collected from the field to assess the condition and degradation status of the meters. - Inspection of battery appearance and structure (corrosion, leakage, damage, etc.) - Measurement of remaining capacity through SaFT's unique analysis - Verification of discharge characteristics and self-discharge - Measurement of internal battery conditions - Analysis of power consumption data based on actual usage environments From these results, we clarified factors affecting lifespan, such as temperature, installation location, and humidity. Based on this, we derived measures to optimize battery lifespan. As a result, it became possible to make planned maintenance and renewal decisions, achieving optimization of meter asset management. SaFT not only provides the batteries themselves but also analyzes factors affecting lifespan and offers recommendations for optimal usage and management methods.
