5 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 1 General description flowIQ® 3100 covers a series of integrated, hermetically sealed water meters, intended for consumption and distribution measurement of cold domestic water – a static cold water meter based on the ultrasonic principle. The cold water meter has been developed on the basis of Kamstrup's experience since 1991 with the development and production of static ultrasonic meters. flowIQ® 3100 has been subjected to a very comprehensive OIML R49 type test in order to ensure a long- term stable, accurate and reliable meter. One of the water meter’s many advantages is the fact that it has no wearing parts, which entails longevity. flowIQ® 3100 is constructed as a vacuum chamber of moulded composite material, mounted on a measuring tube made of brass or stainless steel. Thus, the electronics are fully protected against penetration of water, from both measuring tube and surroundings. The meter can without problems be placed in minor pumping stations, and is also suitable for mounting in distribution wells and meter wells, which are frequently filled with water. flowIQ® 3100 is also intended for measurements in blocks of flats and commercial premises. The meter fits perfectly into a network of MULTICAL® 21 household meters. The water meter can and must only be opened by Kamstrup A/S. If the meter has been opened and the sealing has thus been broken, the meter is no longer valid for billing purposes. Furthermore, the factory guarantee no longer applies. flowIQ® 3100 measures the water consumption electronically, as a volume, using the ultrasound signal. Through two ultrasonic transducers, an audio signal is sent with and against the flow direction. A transducer serves both as a 'speaker' when transmitting, and as a 'microphone' when a signal is received. The ultrasonic signal traveling with the flow will be the first to reach the opposite transducer, while the signal running against the flow will be received a little later. The time difference, between the two signals, can be converted into flow velocity, and thereby also into a volume. The measuring principle is called 'bidirectional ultrasound technique based on the transit time method', which is a proven, long-term stable and accurate measuring principle. The accumulated water consumption is displayed by flowIQ® 3100 in cubic metres (m3) with five digits and up to three decimals, i.e. the resolution has been extended to 1 liter only. The display has been specially designed to operate in a wide temperature range, with high contrast, regardless of lighting - and therefore easy to read - and still have long lifetime. In addition to volume reading, a graphic indication of current flow and a number of information codes are displayed. All registers are saved daily in the meter data logger (EEPROM) and are kept for 460 days. Furthermore, monthly data for the latest 36 months are saved. The water meter is powered by an internal lithium battery with up to 16 years' lifetime. flowIQ® 3100 comes with integral data communication for Wireless M-Bus – European standard for remote reading of meters EN 13757-4. You can choose between the following settings: 868 MHz, Mode C1 or Mode T1 - OMS for the European market. The meter is fitted with an optical eye which makes it possible to read saved consumption data and info codes, stored in the meter’s data logger. Using an optical reading head, with USB connection, the optical eye, in addition, allows to configure the meter.

17 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 7 Installation 7.1 Installation requirements Prior to installation of the water meter the system should be flushed while a fitting piece replaces the meter. Install the meter - it must be mounted with matching couplings if needed. Always use new gaskets in original quality. Place the meter as required. The meter can be mounted at any angle, however, it should be installed correctly in relation to the flow direction, indicated by an arrow on the side of the meter housing. Furthermore, the meter ought to be orientated so that the display is easy to read. (see section 7.2 and 7.3) When mounting the water meter, you must ensure that the length of the meter thread will not prevent sufficient tightening of the sealing surface, and make sure that PN10 or PN16 connections are used. Kamstrup A/S recommends drinking water approved fibre gaskets for cold water installations. If a non- return valve is installed, it will usually be necessary to use 4 mm PE gaskets instead, to prevent the collar of the coupling from damaging the valve. Kamstrup A/S supply such gaskets. See separate accessories list: 5810-1270_GB 7.1.1 Installation conditions As mentioned above the use of new gaskets in original quality is of crucial importance. 7.1.2 Permissible operating conditions Ambient temperature: 2…55°C – indoors or outdoors. Installation in direct sunlight ought to be avoided. The sealing surface of the threaded connection must be clean and level ALWAYS use new gaskets

18 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 Humidity: Indoor and outdoor condensing, and water filled wells. Temperature of media: 0.1…50°C System pressure (thread meters): 0.3 …16 bar (depending on couplings/gaskets) System pressure (flange meters): 0.3 …25 bar 7.1.3 EMC conditions flowIQ® 3100 has been designed for installation in housing and meter wells as well in commercial and industrial buildings. The meter is CE-marked according to MID on the basis of OIML R49 type test class E1 and E2, as well as the Low Voltage Directive. 7.1.4 Service When the meter has been mounted in the system, neither welding nor freezing is allowed. Dismount the meter from the system before starting such work. In order to facilitate replacement of the meter, closing valves should be mounted on both sides of the meter. Under normal operating conditions no pipe strainer is required in front of the meter. 7.2 Installation angle The meter can be mounted at all angles and in all positions. Thus, the meter can be mounted in a usual horizontal installation. It can be mounted vertically in an ascending pipe, it can be mounted at any angle and it can be mounted with its display pointing downwards, e.g. under a ceiling. Mounting the meter in a downpipe, you must be aware that the display will in that case be ‘upside down’. 7.3 Straight inlet The meter requires neither straight inlet nor straight outlet to meet the Measuring Instruments Directive (MID) 2004/22/EC and OIML R49. A straight inlet section will only be necessary in case of heavy flow disturbances before the meter. 7.4 Operating pressure A Recommended water meter position B Recommended water meter position C Recommended for well installation. Air build-up may occur D The meter functions optimally, but the display is ‘upside down’

19 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 In order to avoid formation of air bubbles or vapor dents in the meter (cavitation) – and to ensure correct measurement under all circumstances – the operating pressure in the pipe installation must observe the test conditions of OIML R49, which means that the static pressure downstream, immediately before the meter, must always be minimum 0.03 MPa (0.3 bar). 8 Reading and data 8.1 Reading flowIQ® 3100 can be read in three different ways: • Visual reading of the legal display • Receiving the Wireless M-bus signal, which is emitted at intervals of 16 or 96 seconds, depending on the meter configuration • Reading via the optical eye, e.g. by means of Kamstrup wireless optical reading head, or optical reading head with USB connector. 8.2 Volume measurement The meter calculates water flow currently according to a fixed measuring cycle. When the meter is in normal mode a measurement is carried out every four seconds, and after a total of 32 seconds the meter count is updated in the display. Every 24 hours the meter count is saved in the daily register. The register includes data for the latest 460 days. The daily register can be read via the optical eye. The Wireless M-Bus signal always includes current meter count. 8.3 Data function: Target volume flowIQ® 3100 saves the meter count on the first day of the month in the target volume register. Data is stored in the monthly register. The register includes data for the latest 36 months. The Wireless M-Bus signal includes target volume of current month if selected during customer specific configuration. The customer can select whether the Wireless M-Bus signal is to include target volume of current month or max. flow of latest month (see paragraph 8.4), plus a number of combinations of water*) and ambient temperature. (see 'Optional register in data logger’). Reading the target volume is suitable for use by the waterworks settlement with the consumer. The complete register of target volumes for the latest 36 months can be read by means of the optical eye. *) Measuring the water temperature is only valid for meter sizes 1.6 and 2.5m3/h

20 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 8.4 Data function: Maximum flow and minimum flow flowIQ® 3100 registers maximum and minimum flow on a daily as well as monthly basis. Maximum and minimum flow are calculated as the largest and the smallest value respectively of a number of current flow measurements. The average period used for all calculations can be selected in the interval 1...120 minutes in leaps of one minute. The choice must be made when submitting the order. If no choice is made, the average period will by default be 2 minutes. The Wireless M-Bus signal includes max. flow of latest full month if selected during the customer specific configuration. (see paragraph 8.6 'Optional register in data logger’) Values of maximum and minimum flow are saved in both daily and monthly registers. Daily registers of the latest 460 days and monthly registers of the latest 36 months are always readable via the optical eye. The development of maximum flow can indicate an error in the water installation. If e.g., max. flow falls over a longer period, this can be a sign of a blocking in the installation or a leakage in the supply pipe before the meter. 8.5 Data function: Measuring temperature 8.5.1 Temperature monitoring The water meter measures water*) and ambient temparatures, respectively. The measurements can be used to monitor the installation and to give an indication of the quality of water. Both temperatures are stored in the meter's daily and monthly records*). For each day, temperature values, minimum, maximum and average are stored in the 24 hours’ register. The register contains the last 460 days. Each of the first day of the month, temperature values, minimum, maximum and average, for the latest month , are stored in monthly register. The register contains the last 36 months. Temperature values, are referred in °C and can be read using the optical eye. These are sent via the wireless Wireless M-Bus radio signal. The temperature values can be combined, as described in section 'Optional register in data logger'. See more about temperature reading accuracy in section 2.6. *) Applies only for meter sizes 1.6 and 2.5 m3/h 8.5.2 Ambient temperature Monitoring ambient temperature in the installation can be used for warnings of freezing or unintended high temperatures. The measurements of the meter temperature are made inside the meter housing, which corresponds to the ambient temperature where the meter is installed. The temperature is measured every minute. The maximum and minimum values are based on a two-minute averaging value. The average temperature is a time-weighted mean value. 8.5.3 Water temperature Monitoring the water*) temperature can help to indicate quality of the water when it reaches the consumer. Every 32 seconds an indirect measurement of water temperature is made, using the ultrasound signal. The maximum and minimum values are calculated every 2 minutes, based on a volume weighted mean value since the last minimum/maximum temperature calculation.

21 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 Measurement of water*) temperature requires that the meter is filled with water. If there is no water in the meter a code will be saved, saying that the meter is not water filled. During periods of very low water consumption, the water temperature approaches the ambient tempera- ture.During periods without water flow the weighted average cannot be calculated and then a code 128 is stored, indicating that there is no consumption. *) Measuring the water temperature is only valid for meter sizes 1.6 and 2.5m3/h 8.6 Optional register in data logger Some of the data sent via the Wireless M-Bus radio is optional. It is possible to select one of the data packages with content illustrated in the figure below. The choices are determined by means of the selected R-value when ordering a water meter – shown to the right in the figure. (See description of Wireless M-Bus signal section 8.8) *) Only valid for meter sizes 1.6 and 2.5m3/h

22 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 8.7 Display functions flowIQ® 3100 is fitted with an easily readable LC-display including 8 digits, measuring units, information field with info codes as well as flow indicator (arrows). The display layout is shown in the figure below. In the following examples white/uncoloured segments (see below) indicate inactive segments, whereas black segments indicate active segments. 8.7.1 Volume Volume can be displayed in two different units – m3 or L. Depending on ‘mode’ the legal volume is displayed in the unit [m3] (normal mode) - or the part of the legal volume, which is below 100 m3, in the unit [L] (verification mode). This setting is only used during verification. The difference in size, between the three small 7-segments furthest to the right and the five large 7- segments furthest to the left, indicates a decimal point; this means that the value that can be shown in the display, and thereby the measured quantity, can be maximum 99,999.999. The table below shows an overview of modes and readings: Normal mode Verification mode Data register V1 V1HighRes Unit m3 L Number of digits 5 5 Decimals after point 0-1-2 or 3 3

23 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 Below you see an example of volume reading in normal mode showing V1 = 03,745.214 m3 Below you see an example of volume reading in verification mode showing V1HighRes = 45,214.698 L 8.7.2 Resolution The resolution of the display can be varied by changing the number of visible decimals after the point. This change has no influence on the measurement itself. The five digits before the point are always on. The number of decimals after the point can be selected by the customer at 0, 1, 2 or 3 decimals when submitting the order. If no selection is made, the default value of three decimals after the point will be used. If the resolution is set at 0, 1 or 2 decimals, the last digit/digits will be removed without round-off. 8.7.3 Dots (flashing squares) The two dots (framed in the above sketch) indicate that the meter is active. They are alternately ON at a frequency determined by the meter's mode (see paragraph 8.5.1). In normal mode they flash once a second. In verification mode they flash twice a second. Below you see the shift between the two dots: 

24 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 8.7.4 Info codes The info codes consist of 7 separate text signs (framed in the above sketch), which indicate a special condition in the meter. The signs flash when active, if not they are OFF. The individual info codes are described below: Info code - ERROR This info code is not used. Info code - LEAK This info code is activated if the water in flowIQ® 3100 is never stagnant. Possible untight connections, running cisterns, untight safety valves in hot water tanks, or other untightnesses will have the result that the meter registers water flow 24 hours a day. If the water meter has not registered minimium 1 continuous hour without water flow within the latest 24 hours, this is a sign of a leakage in the water installation. The alarm automatically disappears after an hour without flow in the meter. The sensivity of the leak surveillance can be selected by the customer when submitting the order. The following options are available: Leak surveillance N= Constant minimum flow alarm is activated at: 0 OFF 1 Continuous flow > 0.5 % of Q3 2 Continuous flow > 1.0 % of Q3 3 Continuous flow > 2.0 % of Q3 4 Continuous flow > 0.25 % of Q3 5 Continuous flow > 0.1 % of Q3 The utility must be aware that there can be water consumption all the 24 hours in households with many residents. This means that there will not be an hour without flow, and flowIQ® 3100 will set an alarm for this 24-hour period. Users and water utilities must, therefore, be critical of the leakage alarm. The leakage alarm is saved with a date stamp in both daily register for 460 days and in monthly register for 36 months. Furthermore, it is saved in the info code register of the latest 50 info code events. Together with the info code event a time indicator with 7 time intervals, which indicates how long the info code has existed, is registered. The Wireless M-Bus signal includes the LEAK code. If the LEAK code is active or has been active within the latest 30 days, a time indicator with 7 time intervals will indicate how long the info code has been active.

25 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 Info code - BURST This info code is activated if the flow exceeds a given value for a continuous period of 30 minutes. This can be a sign of a burst in the pipe installation which requires prompt action. The size of the 30-minute flow (which prompts the info code BURST) can be determined by the customer when submitting the order. The following options are available: Bursting surveillance P= Constantly high flow alarm is activated at: 0 OFF 1 Flow > 5 % of Q3 in 30 minutes 2 Flow > 10 % of Q3 in 30 minutes 3 Flow > 20 % of Q3 in 30 minutes The info code BURST disappears when the flow falls below the above-mentioned limit. It can take up to 64 seconds after the flow has fallen below the above-mentioned limit until the info code disappears. Utilities must be aware that water consumption which activates the pipe BURST alarm of flowIQ® 3100 may occur in systems with many connected households. Users and water utilities must, therefore, be critical of the burst alarm. BURST is saved with a date stamp in both the daily register for 460 days and the monthly register for 36 months. Furthermore, it is saved in the info code register of the latest 50 info code events. Together with the info code event a time indicator with 7 time intervals, which indicates how long the info code has been active, is registered. The Wireless M-Bus signal comprises the BURST code. If the BURST code is active, or has been active within the latest 30 days, a time indicator, with 7 time intervals, will indicate how long the info code has been active. Info code - TAMPER This info code becomes active if flowIQ® 3100 has been exposed to unauthorised access, i.e. an attempt to cheat. This means that the meter is no longer valid for billing purposes. The info code TAMPER cannot be removed. If the info code TAMPER is active, no other info codes can be read via the Wireless M-Bus signal. Info Code – DRY This info code indicates that there is air in the meter. The ultrasonic measuring principle implies that the meter must be water-filled. If there is air in the meter, nothing is measured. The info code DRY is activated in the display when 8 successive measurements have shown that there is air in the meter, i.e. after minimum 32 seconds and maximum 64 seconds. The code disappears after one measurement without air, i.e. after 4 seconds.

26 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 If the info code DRY is active, it will immediately appear in the display and from readings via the optical eye. In order to avoid false alarms due to short-term air build-up in the meter, the info code DRY is not added to the relevant registers until it has been continuously active for 30 minutes. DRY is saved with a date stamp in both the daily register for 460 days and the monthly register for 36 months. Furthermore, it is saved in the info code register of the latest 50 info code events. Together with the info code event, a time indicator with 7 time intervals (which indicates how long the info code has been active) is registered. Correspondingly the info code DRY is not added to the Wireless M-Bus signal until it has been continuously active for 30 minutes. Furthermore, if the info code DRY has been active within the latest 30 days, a time indicator with 7 time intervals indicates in the Wireless M-Bus signal how long the info code has been active. Infokode – REVERSE This info code indicates that the water in the meter flows in the wrong direction. Info code REVERSE is activated when the water runs backwards in the meter at a flow which numerically exceeds Q1 for 5 consecutive minutes. The code disappears from the display when the water is stagnant, or again runs in the correct direction in the meter. It can take up to 64 until the info code disappears. The alarm REVERSE is saved with a date stamp in both the daily register for 460 days and in the monthly register for 36 months. Furthermore, it is saved in the info code register of the latest 50 info code events. Together with the info code event a time indicator with 7 time intervals, which indicates how long the info code has been active, is registered. The Wireless M-Bus signal includes the code REVERSE. If the code REVERSE is active or has been active within the latest 30 days, a time indicator with 7 time intervals will indicate how long the info code has been active. Reverse flow is counted and logged in a separate internal register in the meter and can only be read on a monthly basis. If a meter has been incorrectly installed (with reverse flow direction) for a longer period, the reverse volume could be read in the monthly logger. This log is, similar to the legal log, an absolute log – which means that the total reverse consumption for the past month are shown in the log at the end of the month. So even if the fault is corrected, the total reverse consumption can not be seen until the end of the month. The total reverse volume is measured and recorded whether the info code is being activated or not. It should be emphasized that the register for backwards volume is NOT covered by the type approval, and therefore not approved for billing purposes. The register can only be read via the optical eye with LogView. The legal volume register, V1, and thus the meter's target data is not affected by the reverse flow. Info code – RADIO OFF (transport mode) This info code is active in the display when the water meter leaves Kamstrup A/S, and indicates, that the meter is still in ‘transport mode’ and that the built-in Wireless M-Bus radio transmitter has not yet been activated. In transport mode the meter displays info codes, if any, but they are not logged into the corresponding registers, and they are not added to the corresponding hour counters. The Wireless M-Bus radio transmitter is activated when water starts flowing and the meter has registered approx. 0.5 liters of water flow. The radio transmitter remains active.

27 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 The info code RADIO OFF is one info code signal, which either flashes when active, or is inactive to indicate that the Wireless M-Bus radio transmitter is either ‘off’ or ‘on’. The info code is not included in the Wireless M-Bus signal. 8.7.5 Adjustment mark The symbol ‘A’ and the corresponding figure indicate the number of flow adjustments and legal changes after factory verification. For further description see paragraph 9.8 It is possible to reset the legal registers and change the factory programmed flow curve to a limited extent. The flow adjustment makes it possible to adjust the existing curve at three points. The total adjustment compared to the factory adjustment cannot exceed +/- 10 %. As long as no adjustments have been made, both the ‘A’ and the digit are inactive, and Kamstrup A/S does not add further adjustment marking to the meter with. After the first adjustment, the ‘A’ is activated and the digit shows the number of adjustments (1 to 9). Below you see the sequence from adjustments 1 to 9.

28 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 8.7.6 Flow arrows The flow arrows in the left side of the display indicate whether water flows through the meter (in the right direction). If there is no flow (or backwards flow), all arrows are OFF. If there is flow through the meter, the following sequence runs with a timing of 0.5 seconds per reading. 8.8 Wireless M-Bus The meter has a built-in radio transmitter for Wireless M-Bus Mode C1 or T1 OMS. Consequently it is one way transmission. The meter does not include a radio receiver and cannot be contacted via radio. 8.8.1 Transmission Data packets are sent at intervals of approx. 16 or 96 seconds via the built-in antenna. Every eights packet is a ‘full string’, whereas the 7 intervening packets are ‘compact strings’. The time between transmissions depends on whether the meter is configured to 'Drive-by' or 'Fixed network' – this selection is determined when ordering the meter, or it can be configured later by means of METERTOOL. Please note: The contents of the data packet is updated every time a ‘full string’ is sent and the first time a compact string is sent after a full string. A ‘full string’ includes extra information on how the meter data are to be interpreted. Once a single ‘full string’ has been received, the remaining meter population of identically configured meters can be read by a ‘compact string’. When sending data packet each 16.sekund is the data packet short and compressed to achieve a long battery life. By 96 second intervals, a long and intelligent radio package with built-in 'repair coding' is sent. At the same time the power of the signal is higher and therefore optimized for use in fixed networks. With the increased interval between the transmissions, the same high battery life is guaranteed.

29 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 The table below summarizes and describes the data comprised by the Wireless M-Bus data packet: Data Explanation Serial number The meter’s serial number. The serial number will never be encrypted. Meter specific data Identification as cold water meter Kamstrup's specific Wireless M-Bus producer-ID Information on length and format of data packet Information on encryption of data packet Meter count The current meter count from the meter's legal register Target volume Meter reading of the 1st of the month if the 'R' value 1, 3, 5 or 7 is selected See ‘Optional register in data logger’ Max. flow Maximum flow, which has been measured in the last completed month, respectively 24 hours, provided the 'R' value 2, 4 or 9 has been selected. *)Water temperature Minimum or average water temperature for the last completed month or day depending on the choice of the 'R' Meter temperature Minimum, maximum or average ambient/meter temperature, latest month or 24 hours – depending on choise of ’R’- value Info codes Info codes which are active at present Historical info codes Info codes which have been active within the latest 30 days including information on how long they have been active – on a scale of 1-7 For more information - See section 8.6 'Optional register in data logger' *) Measuring the water temperature is only valid for meter sizes 1.6 and 2.5m3/h If encryption has been selected when submitting the order, all variable data will be encrypted with 128 bit AES counter mode encryption. Kamstrup A/S recommends encryption. If the meter is configured for Wireless M-Bus mode T1 OMS, data transmission will only take place every 15 minutes – four times per hour. Kamstrup does not offer reading devices for Wireles M-Bus mode T1 OMS.

30 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 8.9 Optical eye The meter is fitted with an optical eye that gives access to the meter's external interface, with which all the meter's data registers can be read. For instance data can be read using Kamstrup's optical reading head. The reading head includes a permanent magnet which switches on the optical eye. The interface communicates at 1200 baud. In order to limit current consumption the default setting of the optical eye is OFF. By means of a magnet sensor the optical eye will automatically switch ON, if an optical reading unit with magnet is placed on the meter. The start-up time of the optical eye (from the magnet is attached to the meter until the optical eye switches on) depends on the meter's mode as shown in the table below. Normal mode 4 sec. Verification mode 0.5 sec. For Kamstrup’s optical reading head a holder is available, which fits flowIQ® 3100 and is clicked onto the meter. Below is a picture of optical reading head and holder.

31 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 9 Data loggers 9.1 Memory flowIQ® 3100 has a permanent memory (EEPROM), in which the values of various data loggers are saved. Loggers are read through the optical eye. The meter includes the following registers: Data logging interval Data logging depth Logged value Monthly logger 36 months Counter register Daily logger 460 days Counter register Info logger 50 events Info code, meter count and date Please note that flowIQ® 3100 logs monthly values for 36 months. No yearly target values are logged. The loggers are static ones. Thus, the register types cannot be changed. The same applies to the logging intervals. When the last record has been written into the EEPROM the oldest one will be overwritten.

32 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 9.2 Monthly and daily loggers The table below shows which registers are logged on the first day of the month, and which are logged every day. The daily logger is an absolute log, i.e. current meter count is logged every day. Register type Description Monthly logger 36 months Daily logger 460 days Date (YY.MM.DD) Logging time, year, month and day • • Volume V1 Current meter count (legal) • • Operating hour counter Accumulated number of operating hours • • Info Info code • • Vol Reverse Volume during reverse flow • - Date for max. flow Date stamp of max. flow during period • - Max. flow V1 Value for max. flow during period • • Date for min. flow V1 Date stamp of of min. flow during period • - Min. flow V1 Value of min. flow during period • • Min water temp. *) The lowest measured water temperature during period • • Average water temp.*) Volume weighted average water temperature during period • • Max. water temp. *) The highest measured water temperature during period • • Min. ambient temp.

The hour counters are incremented by one every hour, counted on the meter's clock, the corresponding info code is active. Counting starts immediately the first time the info code is active within the hour in question. Even though the info code occurs more than once within an hour, the counter is only incremented once. If the info code remains active for several hours, the counter is incremented by one for each hour. The increment is independent of how small a part of the hour the info code is active. Please note: The info code ‘DRY’ is set in two steps, the increment of the hour counter follows the second step. See paragraph 8.7.4. The hour counters cannot be accessed directly but are represented in the info register in coarse resolution. See paragraph 9.4 No hours are counted as long as the meter is in transport mode.

33 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 9.4 Info register Every time the information code changes, date and info code are logged. Thus, it is possible to data read the latest 50 changes of the information code as well as the date the change was made. Reading is only possible via the optical eye. The table below represents an overview of the register. Register type Description 50 shifts Date (YY.MM.DD) Logging time, year, month and day • Volume Meter count – Info Information code on above date • The info codes and info code hour counters are brought together in one register for presentation in loggers, the Wireless M-Bus information packet and read-outs via the optical eye. The information has been compacted in order to reduce the quantity of data in the Wireless M-Bus packet and partly also in the loggers. The register size is 2 bytes, apportioned with 4 bits for info codes and 12 bits for the info code hour counters. The distribution is shown below, the numbering shows the bit position. MSB LSB 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 Info code hour counters Info codes The first 4 bits for info codes represent DRY, REVERSE, LEAK and BURST as shown below. The info code is active when the bit value is 1. In the Wireless M-Bus packet, in the info logger and in read-outs of the current info register via the optical eye, the current status of the info codes is shown (also see different update of DRY, paragraph 8.7.4). The daily and monthly loggers show all info codes which have been active since the latest logging. 3 2 1 0 BURST LEAK REVERSE DRY The hour counters of the four info codes are represented by the last 12 bits, apportioned with 3 bits each as shown below. 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 BURST LEAK REVERSE DRY

34 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 Every time an info code has been active it is logged together with an indication of how long the info code has been active. The time indication informs with coarse resolution, how many hours the corresponding info code has been active within the latest 30 +1 days, i.e. the latest 30 days + current day. Below, please find interval limits and corresponding intervals. Interval Hours 0 0 hours 1 1-8 hours 2 9-24 hours = 1 day and night 3 25-72 hours = 2-3 days and nights 4 73-168 hours = 4-7 days and nights 5 169-336 hours= 8-14 days and nights 6 337-504 hours = 15-21 days and nights 7 ≥ 505 hours = 22-31 days and nights Example: By means of LogView or by exporting a reading from Wireless M-Bus Meter Reader to Excel the decimal value 14396 has been read. The value is converted to binary digits, and leading zeroes are added to reach a total of 16 characters. This makes: 001 110 000 011 1100 Entering these digits into the above table makes: As mentioned above the first four fields with the figures 0-3 indicate whether the info codes are active, and it thus appears that LEAK and BURST are currently active. The binary values of the remaining fields must now be converted into decimal values, which indicate how long the corresponding info code has been active within the latest 31 days according to the above table. It appears that BURST has been active for 1-8 hours and LEAK has been active for between 15 and 21 days. Furthermore, DRY has been active for 2-3 days within the latest 31 days. 15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 001 110 000 011 1 1 0 0

35 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 9.5 Meter modes (settings) The meter has 2 modes: Meter mode: Normal Verification Measuring cycle (measurement/calculation) 4 s/32 s 0.5 s/4 s Display value [m3] [L] Display dots, frequency 1 Hz 2 Hz Mode, time out No Yes Verification mode is only used by authorised laboratories during verification. 9.6 Normal mode Normal mode is meant for normal operation. In normal mode the m3 symbol (volume unit) is displayed. Furthermore, the two square ‘dots’ at the bottom right of the display shift every second. The flow is measured every four seconds and new values (flow, volume, etc.) are calculated every 32 seconds. 9.7 Verification mode Verification mode is meant for verification of the meter. In the display verification mode is indicated by the ‘L’ symbol (volume unit). In addition, the 2 dots at the bottom right of the display are changing 2 times per second. The flow is measured twice a second and new values (flow, volume, etc.) are calculated every four seconds. When the meter switches to ‘verification mode’, the wireless M-Bus radio transmitter will be turned off. At the same time a time-out starts. When the time-out period has expired the meter switches back to normal mode. The time-out period is 9 hours. 9.8 Legal changes outside seal This paragraph describes the legal changes, which can be carried out without disassembling the meter and thereby breaking the legal seal. All legal changes are fully traceable in an adjust log, which cannot be deleted. The number of legal changes appears from the display (see paragraph 8.7.5). Maximum 9 changes are possible. The adjust log can only be deleted if the meter is disassembled and the legal seal is broken. It appears from the meter’s software version whether a specific meter can be reset outside the legal seal. See support of legal changes below: SW revision Re-adjustment Reset A1 B1 – F1 • G1 – … • • • = Supported

36 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 9.8.1 Flow adjustment The meter is initially verified from the factory. A new factory adjustment requires disassembling of the meter and can only be carried out by Kamstrup A/S When the meter has been locked it is only possible to make a percentage correction of the flow curve at three individual points. This is called readjustment. 9.8.2 Re-adjustment A readjustment can be made without disassembling the meter and thereby breaking the legal seal. The following restrictions apply: - Maximum 9 readjustments are possible. - Maximum adjustment compared to the factory adjustment is +/-10%. - Each readjustment is logged in the meter. During a readjustment the flow curve is corrected at three fixed points and the curve will be readjusted to these new points. IMPORTANT: The laboratory, which makes the readjustment, must attach an adjustment label with the valid adjustment number to the meter. Naturally, this number must be identical with the number (AX) in the meter’s display. 9.8.3 Reset The meter can be reset via the optical eye. This is used in connection with re-verification by authorized laboratories. All loggers and registers including the legal volume register are reset. Only the adjust log and the clock are not reset. At the same time the meter is set to transport mode and the radio is switched off. The following restrictions apply to reset: - The meter can maximum be reset 9 times. - Each reset is logged in the meter. IMPORTANT: The laboratory, which resets the meter, must attach an adjustment label with the valid adjustment number to the meter. Naturally, this number must be identical with the number (AX) in the meter’s display.

37 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 10 Measuring principle 10.1 Ultrasound with piezo ceramics Flow sensor manufacturers have been working on alternative techniques to replace the mechanical principle. Research and development at Kamstrup has proven that ultrasonic measuring is the most viable solution. Based on microprocessor technology and piezo ceramics, ultrasonic measuring is not only accurate but also reliable. 10.2 Principles The thickness of a piezo ceramic element changes when exposed to an electric field (voltage). When the element is mechanically influenced, a corresponding electric charge is generated. Therefore, the piezo ceramic element can function as both sender and receiver. Within ultrasonic flow measuring there are two main principles: the transit time method and the Doppler method. The Doppler method is based on the frequency change which occurs when sound is reflected by a moving particle. This is very similar to the effect you experience when a car drives by. The sound (the frequency) decreases when the car passes by. 10.3 Transit time method The transit time method used in flowIQ® 3100 utilizes the fact that it takes an ultrasonic signal sent in the opposite direction of the flow longer to travel from sender to receiver than a signal sent in the same direction as the flow. The transit time difference in a flow sensor is very small (nanoseconds). Therefore, the time difference is measured as a phase difference between the two 1 MHz sound signals in order to obtain the necessary accuracy. SIGNAL PHASE DIFFERENCE T Against flow With flow t

38 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 In principle, flow is determined by measuring the flow velocity and multiplying it by the area of the measuring pipe: A F Q × = where: Q is the flow F is the flow velocity A is the area of the measuring pipe The area and the length which the signal travels in the sensor are well-known factors. The length which the signal travels can be expressed by V T L × = , which can also be written as: V L T = where: L is the measuring distance V is the sound propagation velocity T is the time       − × = ∆ 2 1 1 1 V V L T In connection with ultrasonic flow sensors the velocities 1 V and 2 V can be stated as: F C V − 1 = and F C V + 2 = respectively where: C is velocity of sound in water.

The measurement is therefore a 'snapshot' of the current flow. This will, like any type of digital sampling, integrate the measurements over time, leading to the calculation of the final volume.

Deviations only occur when the meter is in test mode. 10.6 Flow limits In the meter’s working range from ‘min cutoff’ to saturation flow ‘max cutoff’, the flow through the meter will be registered with an accuracy, which observes OIML R49 at any time. If the flow exceeds saturation flow (‘max. cut-off’) see. table page 7, flowIQ® 3100 registers a constant flow at max. cutoff. If the value of the flow is lower than ‘min. cutoff’, flowIQ® 3100 does not register any flow. In the meter’s working range from min. cut-off to max. cut-off there is a linear connection between the quantity of water which has passed through the meter and the measured water flow. In practice the highest possible water flow through the meter will be limited by the pressure in the system or cavitation due to too low downstream pressure. According to OIML R49 the upper flow limit Q4 is the highest flow, at which the flow meter may operate for short periods of time without exceeding maximum permissible error. flowIQ® 3100 has no functional limitations during the period, when the meter operates above Q4. Please note, however, that high flow velocities > Q4 involve the risk of cavitation, especially at low static pressures below 0.03 MPa (0.3 bar). Q3: 4…16 m³/h Triangle The sound path covers the measuring tube in a triangle. Ultrasound signals are sent from the transducers through the measuring tube via reflectors.

Unfasten the screw of the adapter ring to allow mounting of the unit on the meter 2. Dismount the two screws at the top and remove the cover 3. Push the button on the PCB, which is placed under the cover (see figure below) Knap LED As soon as the button is activated, serial optical communication between Pulse Adapter and meter starts. 2 3 2 LED Button 1

43 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 If the set up is successful, ‘PULSE ON’ is displayed for five seconds (as shown below) and the LED on the unit remains ON for three seconds – shown in the figure below. It takes only a very short time from setup is started until it is completed. Display, after set-up Having set up the meter, remount the cover on the Pulse Adapter and fasten the three screws. 11.5 Pull-up The acquisition unit must have built-in’pull-up’ – shown in figure below – to ensure correct voltage level of the pulse. The pulse output is two-wired and must be connected as follows: Opsamlingsenhed + - 2 Pull-up Sketch for connection of Pulse Adapter Simplified diagram for Pulse Adapter output TB1 pin 1 "+" + TB1 pin 2 "-" + R1 10ohm Acquisition unit

45 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 12 Pulse Interface for flowIQ® 3100 / MULTICAL® 21 Pulse Interface, type 66-99-143, is used during calibration and verification in test stands with pulse interface. The optical reading head is retained on flowIQ® 3100 by means of a transparent plastic holder (Optical support, type 6561-331). Data from flowIQ® 3100 is read by the optical reading head, and in the pulse interface unit converted into high-resolution volume pulses which can be registered by a pulse receiver. When the optical reading head is removed, it takes 9 hours, before the meter returns to normal mode. Pulse Interface, type 66-99-143 , with Optical Support type 6561-331 on flowIQ® 3100 Supply: 3.5-30 VDC < 15 mA Standby: < 0.2 mA Pulse width: = 3.9ms Frequency: Max frequency of 128 Hz Meter size Q3 [m3/h]: Volume [pulses/liter] 1.6 & 2.5 100 4.0 50 6.3 25 10 12.5 16 12.5 25 6

46 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 12.1 Connection Pulse Interface The pulse interface has two outputs - volume and Energy. flowIQ® 3100 only uses the volume output. Each pulse output consists of 3 terminals: GND, Volume Pulse and Pull-up Volume. When the pulse output is active, Pulse is drawn to GND, i.e. the output is ’active low‘. A 10kΩ resistance is placed from Pull-Up to Pulse. The supply for terminals 1 and 2 and the supply connected to the Pull-Up need not be the same or at the same level. The connection of the 8-pole plug J1 is indicated in figures below/next page 12.2 Connection with pulse receiver without supply. Here, external supply for Pull-up is required { N/A Power supply VDC - + - Pulse receiver

47 Kamstrup A/S • Technical Description • 5512-1242_B1_GB • 05.2015 12.3 Connection of pulse receiver with supply. Here, the supply from the receiver can be used. 13 Data communication The meter has built-in radio for Wireless M-Bus Mode C1 or T1 OMS (one-way data transmission from meter, no data receipt in meter). 13.1 Transmission Data packets are sent at intervals of approx. 16 or 96 seconds. Every eights packet is a full data string, whereas the 7 intervening packets are compact data strings. Please note: The contents of the data packet is updated every time a full data string is sent and the first time a compact string is sent after a full string. 13.2 RADIO OFF Radio transmission has been interrupted if ‘RADIO OFF’ is displayed. RADIO OFF is activated at the end of the production process at Kamstrup. The meter removes RADIO OFF automatically when the volume register has counted water consumption for approx. 5 seconds. RADIO OFF is intended for situations where radio transmission is inappropriate – e.g. in laboratories, in warehouses and during air transport, where many meters will typically be concentrated in one place. It is not possible to stop the radio transmission of a meter in normal operation permanently, but the meter can be turned OFF by means of the optical eye e.g. in advance of air transport. However, the radio will automatically turn ON again, as soon as a water flow is registered. RADIO OFF secures that the meter does not send radio communication until the meter is put into operation for the first time. { N/A Strømforsyning VDC - + - + Pulsmodtager
