A wall mounted prepaid water meter is said to be ideal for use in instances where the sub-metering of water consumption is required, such as rental properties, residential complexes or for body corporates.

The PPU Amanzi WM unit is programmed to stop the flow of water once the prepaid credit is exhausted. This feature helps to make the unit easy to use for tenants and property managers, while also saving time and reducing billing problems. 

Water units can be purchased at a number of retail outlets, including Pick n Pay, Checkers, Spar, BP Express shops, Unipin outlets and Easypay outlets, as well as online using FNB, Standard Bank, ABSA and Nedbank Internet banking facilities. 

JKNV Energy asserts that it is the preferred prepaid water meter supplier for landlords and property managers across Gauteng, stating that its ability to install more than one meter on a single property and the convenience and ease-of-use of its units make it the provider of choice. The company offers water meter installation across Johannesburg and Pretoria and its meters are also available in other areas on a self-install basis, with units couriered to any location in South Africa. 

PPU AMANZI WM supports both standard transfer specification (STS) and advanced metering infrastructure credit management records. The prepaid water meter includes a replaceable battery pack and an STS-compliant water management device. It features a user-friendly keypad with a liquid crystal display. The keypad communicates with the meter using radio frequency and enables the consumer to load credit and monitor available credit, meter status and battery status.

The meter is linked to a pulse output water meter to enable metering measurement as well as leak and tamper detection. When operated in prepaid mode, the keypad is the customer interface unit for the water meter.

JKNV Energy affirms that its meter is an affordable, intelligent, electronic control valve that is capable of controlling the flow of water at full pressure to any domestic consumer.
