Lithium Primary Battery Solutions for Gas and Water Smart Meters
Panasonic Energy CR cylindrical lithium batteries are highly reliable and provide a long service life exceeding 20 years
Panasonic Energy cylindrical-type long-life lithium batteries include benefits such as low self-discharge and stable impedance, enabling them to achieve a lifetime of up to 20 years through proprietary technology. The wide operating temperature range and high-drain performance make them ideal for demanding infrastructure applications.
With a globally stable supply chain, Panasonic Energy supports smart meter deployment worldwide with CR cylindrical long-life lithium batteries. Smart meters for gas and water enable remote meter reading and real-time visualization of usage data, contributing to improved efficiency and optimization of social infrastructure. Because these meters are often installed outdoors and far from power outlets, securing a stable and long-lasting power source is essential. Special designs, such as stainless-steel battery cans, are available to prevent interference with magnetic flow measurement.
