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.

  • FieldLogic™ Hand-held Device (HHD)

    The FieldLogic™ Hand-held Device (HHD) is a reliable, flexible electronic device used to collect and store meter readings and program SmartPoint® modules. You can upload pre-programmed route information from our PC-based FieldLogic software using Wi-Fi or the device’s Ethernet-enabled communications/charging stand as an interface. The unit comes with built-in capacity for expanded uses.

  • Cyble Transforms Mechanical Meters In Communication Data Points

    Designed to transform mechanical meters into communication data points, Itron's Cyble communication modules enable remote reading and monitoring of water meters on-site events. 

  • 1100 MEGALUG® Mechanical Joint Restraint

    The Series 1100 MEGALUG® Mechanical Joint Restraints effectively and economically restrain Ductile Iron Pipe (DIP) to mechanical joints above or below ground, for practically any application including valves, hydrants, and pipe. For use on all classes of ductile iron pipe (PC350 through PC150 and CL56 through CL50) without damage to the pipe or cement linings. It can also be used on steel pipe and cast iron pipe when joining to mechanical appurtenances, see product brochure for more details on these pipes.

  • iPERL®+ Water Meters

    iPERL+ redefines water metering, offering an integrated solution that not only ensures seamless system compatibility but also maintains unmatched accuracy in water usage measurement for your utility. With enhanced data logging capabilities and a choice between polymer and metal flow tube casings, iPERL+ is tailored to meet the unique needs of your utility.

  • mobileRDM

    Using the mobileRDM application, workers can push a button to receive status information, read the meter, connect or disconnect service and run diagnostics.

  • e-XC Single Stage, Double Suction Centrifugal Pumps

    With more models and more material options, the e-XC single stage, double suction, centrifugal pump offers a broader hydraulic range and higher efficiency than our previous models. Built on a legacy of pump innovation, the e-XC replaces the AC Series 8100, 8300 and 9100 pump range. With flow rates exceeding 57,000 gpm, it can easily handle medium and large capacity systems and higher head. Manage extra-large applications with Xylem’s A-C Custom pump range.
