Proven adoption of smart meters both domestically and internationally - Maintains large capacity in harsh 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 ensures the system continues to operate reliably, supporting the longevity of infrastructure. 【Are you facing these issues?】 - Want to eliminate communication errors caused by harsh outdoor temperature changes (from extreme heat in summer to sub-zero temperatures in winter)? - Looking to reduce the frequency of battery replacements for external communication devices and achieve long-term operation? - Want to mitigate the risk of sudden resets and transmission errors by enhancing the multifunctionality of communication modules? - Searching for a high energy density power source that can accommodate increased communication frequency in limited space? - As an infrastructure device, want to maintain high safety even against harsh temperature changes and shocks? *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 in Harsh Outdoor Temperature Changes (from Extreme Heat in Summer to Subzero in Winter) Saft addresses a wide range of operating temperatures, including high temperatures due to direct sunlight and cold weather 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 Optimization of Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) With an extremely low self-discharge rate, prolonged operation is possible, reducing the frequency of battery replacements. Additionally, by minimizing maintenance after installation and reducing waste batteries, it significantly contributes to environmental burden reduction (SDGs). 3. "High Reliability" Refined 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 traditional 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, batteries collected from the field were analyzed to assess the condition and degradation status of the meters. - Inspection of the battery's appearance and structure (corrosion, leakage, damage, etc.) - Measurement of remaining capacity through Saft's proprietary 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, factors affecting lifespan such as temperature, installation location, and humidity were clarified. Based on this, measures were derived to optimize battery lifespan. As a result, it became possible to make planned maintenance and replacement decisions, achieving optimization of meter asset management. Saft not only provides batteries but also analyzes factors affecting lifespan and offers recommendations for optimal usage and management methods.
