The BMETERS GSD8-I is a single-jet, dry-dial water meter providing direct mechanical reading through an 8-digit numerical register.
Available in DN15 (1/2") and DN20 (3/4") sizes for both cold and hot water applications, the GSD8-I provides a practical solution for domestic, apartment and light commercial water metering.
A key advantage of the GSD8-I is its inductive pre-equipment for remote reading. Compatible communication modules can be fitted to provide Pulse, wired M-Bus, wireless M-Bus or LoRa output, allowing the basic mechanical meter to be adapted for a wide range of automatic meter-reading applications.

Cold & Hot Water Versions
The GSD8-I is available in dedicated versions for both cold and hot water, allowing the same meter family to be used across a variety of residential and commercial water-metering applications.
DN15 and DN20 versions cover the most commonly encountered smaller pipe sizes, making the meter particularly suitable for individual properties, apartments and tenant sub-metering.
Dry-Dial Mechanical Register
The GSD8-I uses a dry-dial register with direct reading across 8 numerical rolls, providing a clear and straightforward indication of accumulated water consumption.
The register can be rotated through 360°, allowing the dial to be positioned for convenient reading after the meter has been installed.
Flexible Remote-Reading Options
The GSD8-I is inductively pre-equipped for the installation of compatible communication modules, allowing the meter to be configured for the remote-reading system used on the installation.
-
Pulse – for connection to compatible pulse counters, data loggers and monitoring equipment
-
Wired M-Bus – for hard-wired automatic meter-reading networks
-
Wireless M-Bus – for remote reading without communication cabling
-
LoRa – for long-range remote and smart-metering applications
Typical Applications
- Residential water metering
- Apartment and flat sub-metering
- Landlord and tenant metering
