Elster to Install Water Meters for Brazilian Utilities

Elster has been selected by two Brazilian utilities to provide AMCO Water meters in order to accurately measure water usage and drive increased revenues.

Elster will install about 170,000 Elster water meters at residential and commercial locations of Empresa Baiana de Aguas e Saneamento and 80,000 water meters in Saneamento Basico do Estado de Sao Paulo.

The utility expects about 80% of the Elster single-jet and multi-jet water meter deployments to be completed by the end of 2011.

The new water meters will improve the measurement accuracy of water consumption, benefiting customers and the utilities.
