A smart gas meter is an electronic device designed to record information such as electric energy consumption, voltage levels, current, power factor, and gas usage. This information provides consumers with a clearer understanding of their gas consumption and usage. Smart gas meters are utilized for measuring energy consumption, calculating costs, and enabling automatic meter readings.

The main types of smart gas meters include smart ultrasonic gas meters and smart diaphragm gas meters. Smart ultrasonic gas meters are compact static gas meters that employ ultrasonic measurement techniques for measuring energy in residential areas where gas is used as an energy source. These meters consist of various components, including hardware and software, employing techniques such as automated meter reading (AMR) and advanced metering infrastructure (AMI). Smart gas meters find applications in residential, commercial, and industrial settings.
