DRINKING WATER DISTRIBUTION RESOURCES

  • 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  • Currently, water infrastructure is outdated and fragile, prone to breakages and leaks.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.
  • Modernize water network management by combining precision ultrasonic metering with advanced acoustic leak detection. This integrated digital approach provides real-time data to identify vulnerabilities, minimize non-revenue water, and optimize distribution for long-term operational sustainability.

  • Permanent acoustic sensors turn fire hydrants into a high-tech defense against water loss. By monitoring pipe sounds 24/7, utilities can identify and fix hidden leaks before they cause expensive, unplanned service disruptions or emergency flooding.

  • Satellite-based radar technology allows water utilities to identify non-surfacing leaks that traditional methods often miss. By pinpointing underground moisture signatures, municipalities can significantly reduce non-revenue water and meet conservation goals through more efficient, data-driven field inspections.

  • Harnessing satellite intelligence allows utilities to pinpoint hidden underground leaks with precision. By focusing field crews on high-probability clusters, municipalities can drastically reduce water loss, optimize repair budgets, and prioritize critical infrastructure replacement projects.

  • A recent study argues that the traditional, manual approach to drinking-water distribution-network monitoring and leak prevention is no longer sustainable. Instead, utilities must embrace the Internet of Things (IoT) to transition from reactive repairs to proactive asset management.
  • In the U.S. alone, 2.7 trillion gallons of water are lost to non-revenue water (NRW) every year, costing water utilities more than $6.4 billion annually in unrealized revenue. Given the scale of the issue — volumes and dollars — NRW presents an opportunity for upscaling utility management.

  • Inline Turbidity Meter: IQ-5N

    World's 1st Maintenance Free for 10 years On-line Turbidimeter.

  • SoundPrint® AFO Continuous Remote Monitoring Platform

    The SoundPrint® AFO Continuous Remote Monitoring Platform is a proactive pipeline monitoring solution that uses acoustic fiber optic (AFO) technology to detect structural deterioration in prestressed concrete cylinder pipelines (PCCP). By continuously listening for wire breaks and other anomalies, the system enables utilities to assess pipeline health in real time, reducing the risk of catastrophic failures and extending asset life. Data is securely transmitted to a cloud-based dashboard, providing operators with actionable insights for maintenance and capital planning.

  • AquaControl Water IoT Platform

    AquaControl™ provides leak and burst protection, full submetered billing support, and remote water actuation through its smart connected valve. Aquana captures unit-level consumption, uses flow analysis and contact sensors to detect anomalies, and provides automated shutoff before serious damage occurs.
