Remote Monitoring Of Fresh Water And Sewage

Water supply operations personnel must be able to monitor and record the operating status of all water supply pumps and water flow rates. Traditionally, monitoring has required travel to sites to check pump meters and read charts. In systems with many distributed assets such as pumps, centralized monitoring minimizes travel while providing more timely information.

Typical challenges with traditional recorders include high operation and maintenance costs, which result from moving mechanical parts and the use of consumables such as charts, ink, and pens.
Travel is required to gather operating data at remote locations. Timely information on remote operations is not readily available at any single location. In addition, cumbersome and error prone, manual calculations of water flows are required.
