 The
UtilityEye solution can be used in the waste water treatment and
distribution process to provide immediate access to vital information
on water quality monitoring by using wireless telemetry.
Applications:
- Control plant equipment
- Remotely Monitor levels
- Schedule pumping operations based on the reservoir level
- Remote Monitoring flow readings
- Remotely Monitor chemical levels
UtilityEye - Water Quality Monitoring with Wireless Telemetry
Waste water management is moving with the times. More sophisticated
planning and operating practices in the public and private sectors
demand guaranteed network control and information availability and
water quality monitoring is no exception to this.
 The solution
Supervisors and operatives need mission-critical status reports 24/7
- on site, at home, on the road, 365 days a year. A water quality
monitoring (wireless telemetry) system offers a solution for this.
Engineers involved in waste water management must have dependable
current and historical water quality data for decision-making on
emergency response, performance levels, upgrading, maintenance.
Utility administrators require accurate measurement and reporting on
water quality and flow rates and levels for billing and business
planning. This is often beyond the scope of some SCADA telemetry
systems - a wireless telemetry solution is also required.
EU environmental control regulations make it essential for waste
water treatment plant managers to have absolute assurance of water
quality - using wireless telemetry to gather remotely monitored data is
a vital part of water quality monitoring.
Installing a comprehensive water quality monitoring and control
system to meet all of these diverse needs has always been problematical
- and expensive - whether for a single plant or across entire waste
water treatment and distribution networks, especially where remote
sites are involved.
Sites that need to be remotely monitored often require expensive
wireless telemetry equipment to overcome difficulties with
line-of-sight transmission, telecom access or power supply. Reporting
and control capabilities can be compromised by limited data reception
and restricted access, with only one person at a time being able to log
on at specified on-site locations.
These issues can be addressed with the Utility-Eye water quality
data communication, processing and display system - at a competitive
price.
This Water Quality Monitoring System has been specifically designed
for remote wireless (pump) control and remote data collection and
monitoring.
The use of low orbiting satellites (i.e. a wireless telemetry) to
transmit water quality monitoring and pump control data to a secure
server operates totally independently of site terrain or
infrastructural provision - a perfect wireless telemetry solution for
remote monitoring.
Innovative software then processes, analyses and presents the water
quality data in user-friendly graphic displays that can be accessed,
via the internet, with total ease and confidentiality.
Wireless telemetry solutions can be integrated with existing SCADA
stations, to provide unlimited possibilities in operational control for
measuring, sampling and pumping operations within the network.
Fully customisable alerts can be sent to mobile phones, pagers and e-mail addresses.
The benefits are obvious -emergencies are handled immediately,
manpower usage is optimised, interruptions to water supply are
minimised, and water wastage is curtailed.
