   Early detection of leaks can preserve pumping station capacity. Full-profile insertion (FPI) mag meters can be installed near valves and bends, making them ideal for pumping stations.

6. Water Authority Deploys More Efficient Solution For Now And The Future 7/16/2020

   Following the Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act announced by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 2013, Water Authority of Dickson County decided to look beyond its current metering manufacturing company and evaluate other solutions in the market. Leaders from WADC began conversations with their counterparts across Tennessee to find new, longer-lasting and more accurate meters, as well as a solution that would help WADC more strategically detect leaks and efficiently manage its time.

7. Stay Grounded: Avoiding Mag Meter Mishaps 7/13/2021

   Electromagnetic (mag) meters are a desirable metering choice for their incredible accuracy and low to no maintenance required over its lifespan. Operating with no moving parts, the appeal is high – however, the ability to troubleshoot in-field is challenging and time-consuming. Luckily, there’s a major contributing factor in installing an effective mag meter that can set you (and your operations) up for success: grounding.

8. Newark Sets The Standard For Community Engagement And Education With Their New LSLR Program 5/2/2020

   The City of Newark, NJ initiated a Lead Service Line Replacement program in 2018 as part of its efforts to provide clean, safe, and reliable drinking water for all residents. One of the biggest challenges faced by the city is engaging residents as the project gets underway. With a large transient population of renters, it can be hard to get residents and landlords to fully engage in a drinking water program. Not only can a lack of understanding on the part of the public jeopardize their health, it also makes it difficult for Newark to collect information needed to validate their LSLR program.

9. Wastewater Treatment Plant Realizes The Importance Of Using Genuine Replacement Parts In Its UV Treatment System 1/13/2020

   The Lucas County Water Resource Recovery Facility was experiencing treatment inefficiencies and staff couldn’t figure out why. The issues were stemming from the use of non-OEM, non-genuine UV lamps, quartz sleeves, and ballasts.

10. Innovative Communication Tool Enables Robust And Contact-Free Control Capabilities 10/24/2020

    Two-way wireless communication can provide a wealth of benefits for municipal water utilities, including command and control abilities that underpin a wider smart city infrastructure. However, most tools currently on the market do not provide the flexibility and uncompromising speed that are necessary to enable these capabilities. The newly released Mueller® Mi.Net® LoRaWAN® (LW) node, by comparison, allows two-way data communication to take place within seconds instead of hours.
