The OMS-Group
Who we are
WHAT IS THE OMS?
The measuring system for the energy transition
The OMS specification is open and can be realized patent-free
WHY OMS?
The advantages of OMS
1.
OMS is a future-proof communication standard as it is based on European standards and is supported by the industry
2.
Free choice of supplier: OMS meters from different manufacturers can be easily combined
3.
Counting different media or a medium of different characteristics, such as gas of different quality (natural gas, biogas).
4.
The meter fleet will be fully compatible and interoperable
5.
Planning security: the investment in the meter fleet retains its value in the long term
6.
Positioning as an expert for cross-manufacturer meter communication.
7.
Direct communication with the meters designed for this purpose is possible: reading consumption, controlling meters, locating defective meters or leaks, switching off meters, etc.
8.
OMS meters enable the introduction of smart grids to reduce energy consumption and improve the integration of renewable energies
9.
ISO/IEC 14543-3 = EN 50090 (KNX) has been integrated into the OMS application profile for data visualization (consumption display) and the connection of building automation (smart home) at the consumer. KNX installations can thus gain added value from OMS meters without great effort, as they use the S-mode according to EN13757-4 for wireless communication just like the OMS meters.
The OMS-Label
The only open standard for measuring consumption in all energy sectors
Smart metering products are awarded the OMS label if it has been proven that they meet the requirements of the OMS specification. The certification body is DVGW CERT, the largest European certifier in the gas and water sector.
Consumers, utility companies, the housing sector, industry and users of home and building automation recognize from the OMS label that these smart meter devices work together with devices from other manufacturers and for other energy-saving applications. They meet strict data protection requirements and are highly future-proof.
