Heir to the bestseller ALTAIR V4
Replacing the successful ALTAIR V4 meters, 30 million units sold worldwide, the ALTAIR V5 is both lighter and more efficient than the latter.
The design, materials, manufacturing process, and shipping of ALTAIR V5 to customers have been redesigned to minimize its environmental impact and enable customers to conserve water resources as much as possible.
Concerning the ALTAIR V5, we took into account our experience with the V4 and technical advances to achieve a more efficient meter and reduce its carbon footprint.

The role of ALTAIR V5's accuracy in leak detection
Approved up to R1000, ALTAIR V5 performance is the key to detecting leaks and reducing Non-Revenue Water (NRW). Its design has been enhanced to extend its metrological excellence to a maximum lifetime of at least 15 years, securing the investment in a digitized network infrastructure.
Is ALTAIR V5 water meter Smart city ready?
The modular and flexible IZAR radio modules’ range transform the ALTAIR meter into a smart meter. The ALTAIR V5 can thus connect to LoRaWAN®, mioty®, or Nb-IoT networks and is equipped to transmit data for up to 15 minutes. The precise and reliable information transmitted will enable the network analysis software to effectively detect leaks and proactively plan maintenance.
How do eco-designed solutions support sustainable water management?
The ALTAIR V5's reduced carbon footprint is an asset for municipalities aiming to minimize their environmental impact. Both the ALTAIR V5 and the new IZAR RC IoT radio module have lower carbon costs. Partly made from recycled materials and fully dismantlable, the IZAR RC IoT module is now easier to recycle. Thanks to an innovative design, the battery can be separated from the other components, enabling its recycling.
How does ALTAIR V5 support utilities’ goals?
Available in various versions and diameters, the ALTAIR V5 solution responds to the problem of preserving water resources and the strategy of reducing carbon emissions undertaken by the signatories of the UN Global Compact.
