Distribution SafetySafety is your top priority

It’s ours, too. Itron offers natural gas distribution solutions for smart metering, methane detection and pressure monitoring–all to combat key gas safety issues.

Proactively detect and resolve gas safety issues

Gas safety is a top priority for both you and your customers. As a responsible utility, it's crucial to manage and mitigate risks in your service area like gas leaks, explosions, wildfires, backhoe incursions and pressure events. With increased visibility into safety events in your gas distribution system, you can take proactive measures to prevent incidents and ensure the safety of your customers and employees.

  • Gain operational visibility and track critical alarms and events through a workflow, enabling quick and efficient response times.

  • Address critical situations immediately through remote internal valve actuation in the meter.

  • Optimize and reduce response times for safety incidents and business processes for you and your customers.

Optimize your gas safety response

Gas distribution safety solutions visualize and manage events while actuating internal safety shutoff valves. Using sensors, communication networks and value-added analytics, you can optimize response and repair times for safety incidents and any associated business processes. When every moment counts, count on Itron.
