SHM Smart Hydrant Master

Network Intelligence Disguised – IoT Monitoring Node in a Standard Fire Hydrant Form

SHM appears identical to a standard Hawle H8 fire hydrant but functions as a sophisticated IoT monitoring node creating a "Digital Twin" of your water network. With integrated pressure (0–20 bar), flow, and unauthorized access detection, SHM installs as a direct replacement requiring no new shaft construction. Hidden NB-IoT/LoRaWAN communication, 10+ year battery life, and IP69K high-pressure protection deliver network intelligence without compromising infrastructure aesthetics or integrity.
