This text refers to a summation of the addition and the patent application "Water Consumption Manager", filed on 09/09/2010, which received the number PI 1001096-3, owned by the same applicant. The addition was filed on 06/01/2011 with the number 018110000365, with the title of "Additive to the Consumption Manager of water". Developed to manage water consumption, in homes, industries or any hydraulic system that needs management, within the field of electro-electronic measuring devices.
Destina-se o presente objeto a facilitar o controle de vazão de água que passa pelo hidrômetro, permitindo um controle eficaz, com finalidades de reduzir o consumo exagerado e até detectar possíveis vazamentos (advindo da indicação do alto consumo), mesmo para os grandes consumidores. The purpose of the present object is to facilitate the control of water flow through the hydrometer, allowing effective control, with the purpose of reducing the excessive consumption and even detecting possible leaks (resulting from the indication of high consumption), even for large consumers. .
O consumidor residencial, não dispõe de facilidades para contrc!ar de forma fácil e efetiva o seu consumo de água potável. Assim, se suas instalações tiverem, por exemplo, um vazamento, a sua detecção será difícil e, normalmente, só ocorre quando da chegada da conta de consumo e a constatação de volumes exagerados que passaram pelo hidrômetro. Residential consumers do not have the facilities to easily and effectively control their drinking water consumption. Thus, if your facility has, for example, a leak, its detection will be difficult and usually only occurs when the consumption bill arrives and when excessive volumes have passed through the water meter.
Assim, o objetivo da presente, é prover um gerenciador de consumo de água eficaz, de baixo custo e de grande exequibilidade industrial. Thus, the objective of the present is to provide an effective, low cost and highly industrially viable water consumption manager.

44 vão sendo modificados de uma unidade sempre que passa 1 litro de água pelo hidrômetro 21. Simultaneamente, o tempo é contato e quando transcorrem 24 horas o sistema entende que se passou um ciclo de contagem e habilita o dispositivo de comparação do consumo programado por ciclo versus consumo real no ciclo. Se o consumo real for menor que o programado, o contador e o visor 44 da tela 40 são zerados e um novo ciclo se inicia. Se, entretanto, o consumo real for maior que o programado, o gerenciador fecha a válvula 22 e aciona o alarme 8, alertando o usuário de possível consumo exagerado ou vazamentos ou outros problemas. Verificada a ocorrência, a válvula 22 pode ser reaberta via o gerenciador 1 , conforme descrição já feita acima e todo o sistema volta a operar.
When there is water flow, the hydrometer 21 in association with the sensor 20 generates a signal for manager 1. This activates the arrows 43 of the screen 40 and counts the signals. When signals corresponding to 1 liter of water are counted, the counter and display 44 of screen 40 are changed by one and the counting continues and the counter and display 44 are modified from a unit each time 1 liter of water is passed through the water meter 21. Simultaneously, the time is contact and when 24 hours elapses the system understands that a counting cycle has passed and enables the programmed consumption comparison device per cycle. versus actual consumption in the cycle. If actual consumption is less than programmed, counter 40 and display 44 of screen 40 are reset and a new cycle begins. If, however, actual consumption is greater than programmed, the manager closes valve 22 and triggers alarm 8, alerting the user of possible over consumption or leaks or other problems. Once the occurrence is verified, the valve 22 can be reopened via the manager 1, as described above and the whole system goes back to operation.
