Innovyze Announces Support For WSA05-2019 v4.1
11/24/2021
The recent release of InfoAsset Manager 2021.6 now offers support for the Water Services Association of Australia (WSAA) WSA05-2019 version 4.1 Conduit Inspection Reporting Code. This extends support to the existing legacy versions of WSA05-2013 v3.1, WSA05 2008 v2.2 and WSA05 2002. The Australian codes used to describe conduit condition bear some relationship to the codes used in EN 13508-2:2003 Conditions of drain and sewer systems outside buildings Part 2: Visual inspection coding system, which is also supported in InfoAsset Manager.

Are Your Pumps Running As Efficiently As Practical?
5/16/2019
In water and wastewater operations, optimizing energy use plays a huge role in cost efficiency, but how can you know if pumping equipment and other motors are running as efficiently as possible? Analytics systems that interpret performance from a variety of data points — pump curves, run time, flow rates, vibration, temperature, energy consumption, etc. — can quantify pump operation to keep performance efficiency on an upward track.

Addressing Global Drinking Water Challenges With IIoT And Automation Solutions
8/17/2022
Nearly a billion people worldwide lack basic water services and another billion lack safely managed drinking water, according to a United Nations Report on Water and Sanitation. And the problem is only getting worse: Currently, 17 countries and 33 of the world’s cities with populations above three million are living under extreme water stress. That number is expected to rise to 45 by 2030.

Cooling Process Control Panels Effectively
6/25/2015
Over the past few decades, the use of sophisticated high density electronics within automation and process control panels has become commonplace. Thermal management and its related costs for these electronic enclosures are very important considerations in managing these valuable assets. Choosing the appropriate and most cost and energy efficient cooling solution from the many types available requires knowledge of their individual strengths and weaknesses, and the ability to match that to the operational environment.

JICA Assisted Guwahati Water Supply Project
9/24/2021
The water system for Guwahati, the largest city in the northeastern region of India, was originally built to harness the Brahmaputra River with a gravity-based distribution system. Unregulated development led to water supply problems, as well as high water pressure in 60% of the system. To improve water distribution and the quality of life for residents, NJS Engineers India was tasked with constructing or upgrading water infrastructure throughout the city, including 36 kilometers of transmission mains, 1,155 kilometers of distribution pipes, 1.42 million service connections, a treatment plant, pumping stations, and other infrastructure. Due to the size of the project, NJS needed to combine design, construction management, and hydraulic models into a single platform.
