DRINKING WATER DISTRIBUTION RESOURCES

  • Critical water tunnels require efficient structural renewal to meet strict shutdown schedules. Certified geopolymer mortar provides a cost-effective, high-strength solution that eliminates groundwater infiltration and improves water quality while ensuring a 70-year service life for essential aqueduct systems.

  • Protecting residential water access during emergency repairs is essential for municipal reliability. Advanced insertion technology creates permanent control points on live, pressurized lines, preventing large-scale service outages and boil-water advisories for thousands of residents.

  • Critical safety systems must remain operational during repairs. Advanced insertion technology enables the installation of permanent valves on pressurized lines without service interruptions, preventing costly facility shutdowns while ensuring constant fire suppression readiness.

  • Mechanical point repair offers a cost-effective, efficient alternative to traditional lining for fixing pipe defects. These thin-profile stainless-steel sleeves restore structural integrity and seal leaks quickly, significantly reducing project costs while maintaining optimal flow.

  • Maintaining water service during infrastructure upgrades is critical for community safety. Innovative insertion technology allows for the creation of permanent isolation points on live pressurized lines, ensuring uninterrupted supply while enhancing long-term grid reliability.

  • Smart water technologies improve customer satisfaction through accurate billing, leak detection, and data-driven insights, helping utilities build trust, reduce losses, and enhance operational efficiency.

  • Modernize aging water infrastructure without service interruptions. By installing strategic control points on live lines, municipalities can perform vital repairs and upgrades while maintaining full pressure and fire protection for the entire community.

  • Jersey City in New Jersey is undergoing a period of development and growth which has seen its population increase by more than 50,000 people in the last 13 years. To cater for this growth, the Jersey City Municipal Utilities Authority is tasked with maintaining its aging water infrastructure and improving its critical water supply to ensure it can meet the needs of its customers both now and into the future.

  • Our infrastructure systems have operated in managed deterioration for decades. And not surprisingly, once they deteriorate badly enough and cross over into active failure, all cost discipline disappears.
  • Currently, water infrastructure is outdated and fragile, prone to breakages and leaks. Reactive approaches to water infrastructure are only implemented after an incident and are more expensive than simple maintenance fixes. Geotechnical Internet of Things (IoT) devices enable water and wastewater industry professionals to identify and address issues before they escalate into catastrophic events.

DRINKING WATER DISTRIBUTION SOLUTIONS

  • PermaNET SU

    The PermaNET SU leak detection loggers are a key part of our product lineup. These loggers function as acoustic sensors attached to the external surface of clean water distribution pipes. The leak detection process involves two main steps: first, the loggers measure the noise level emitted by the pipes and then evaluate it against a predefined threshold. Made in America and winner of the Environmental Protection Award, these loggers exemplify top-notch quality and reliability.

  • ecoFIT Metric Industrial HDPE

    ecoFIT PE100 Industrial Polyethylene ushers in a new generation piping system designed specifically for broad-based applications. The dynamic combination of specifiable pipe, fittings, valves, and advanced fusion technologies integrates well into the industrial process industry.

  • ally: Beyond The Meter

    The ally smart water solution goes beyond the meter to help you measure smarter, communicate better, analyze easier and improve revenue and efficiency.

  • ORION® Migratable (ME) Endpoint

    The ORION® Migratable endpoint (ME) is a two-way water endpoint for mobile applications, delivering meter reading data and status information to power the BEACON® AMA Mobile (AMR) solution.

  • FLEX-TEND® Force Balanced Flexible Expansion Joints

    FLEX-TEND Force Balanced Flexible Expansion Joints are designed to protect water pipeline systems from the stresses produced by ground motion either from seismic activity or gradual soil subsidence. The Force Balanced FLEX-TEND unlike conventional flexible/expansion joints does not generate an axial thrust that must be compensated for.

  • VIC – Canned Lineshaft Turbine Pumps

    Multistage canned vertical turbine pumps offer the same versatility and performance as our lineshaft pumps and are ideal for closed-loop boosting. These are short-set lineshaft pumps with suction piping connected to a can (or sleeve) inlet, which allows the can to create the pump reservoir. A canned turbine pump is a perfect solution for site locations where suction piping exists, rather than an existing sump or reservoir.
