A system includes a plurality of control system elements (CSEs) and a control system platform (CSP) including a data repository and operatively connected to the plurality of CSEs, and configured to: receive, from a CSE of the plurality of CSEs, a state logging message including measurement device state information (MDSI) and a control system element identifier (CSEI); store the MDSI in the data repository; process the MDSI to obtain analytic information; obtain, from the data repository, client device notification criteria (CDNC) associated with the CSEI; perform a comparison between the MDSI and the analytic information against the CDNC; determine, based on the comparison, that at least one notification trigger specified in the CDNC has been met; generate, in response to determining, an analysis notification message comprising the MDSI and the analytic information; and transmit the analysis notification message to a client device operatively connected to the CSP via a network.

Smart meter block

A fluid meter includes a housing which comprises a cavity that defines a flow bore through which a fluid to be metered is directed, a rotor which is rotatably supported in the cavity and is set into rotation by the fluid flowing through the flow bore, a first magnet which is connected to the rotor, a second magnet which is magnetically coupled to the first magnet, a cap member which is positioned over the first magnet and separates the second magnet from the cavity, and a rotary encoder which is operatively coupled to the second magnet. Rotation of the rotor is magnetically transmitted through the cap member from the first magnet to the second magnet and is detected by the rotary encoder.
