What is the Project?
TracWater provides real-time Information-As-A-Service through the cloud for all water monitoring solutions. The project covers an extensive array of instruments and sensors that ensure potable and environmental water quality are monitored accurately and remotely. From wireless water quality robots to cloud-based radar level sensors, the offerings include TracWater Water Quality Robots, Portable Water Quality Analysers, In-ground Water Quality Analysers, and DMA Water Quality Analysers – all accessible via simple plug ‘n play commissioning. It’s a sophisticated solution that delivers unparalleled quality of services compared to traditional methods… ensuring that water networks stay safe and efficient.
Main Benefits
The project highlights impressive key figures that showcase its impact:
- 966,909,600 Total sensor measurements made
- 6457.43 Sensor measurements made per day
- 1.79 Sensor measurements made per second
- 1,989,888 DMA Advanced measurements made
- 3,069,528 TWIG Units measurements made
- 608,832 Portable Units measurements made
Portable & Environmental Monitoring
The versatility in monitoring is apparent in solutions for both potable and environmental water quality. For potable water quality monitoring, the project deploys several solutions including:
- TracWater Water Quality Robots
- Portable Water Quality Analysers
- In-ground Water Quality Analysers
- DMA Water Quality Analysers
When it comes to environmental water quality, the instruments extend to include cutting-edge options like Cloud-Based Instrumented Buoys and Wireless Groundwater Sensors. These devices not only collect essential data but also ensure that water quality is constantly and accurately tracked across various conditions.
Pressure & Transient Monitoring Solutions
The monitoring system doesn’t stop at analysing water quality. It goes further by incorporating reliable pressure and transient pressure monitoring solutions. Products such as TracWater Wireless Pressure Monitors, Wireless Pressure & Transient Pressure Monitors, and Cloud-based Flow and Pressure Meters have been engineered to detect pressure changes up to 1,000 times per second. This level of precision means that real-time and accurate remote pressure monitoring is achieved even at the most critical points within the water network – pretty impressive, wouldn’t you say?
Underground Sewer & Trade Waste Management
Attention to detail is also clear in the realm of underground sewer and trade waste management. The project deploys advanced solutions to keep this segment under close watch, featuring:
- Cloud-based Radar Level Sensors
- TracWater Wireless Pressure Monitors
- Cloud-based Flow and Pressure Meters
- TracWater Solar Powered Remote Flow Meters
These instruments are designed to offer robust monitoring in challenging environments where quick, accurate data collection is critical. The use of cloud technology means that alerts and real-time analytics are available instantly – streamlining how trade waste and sewer systems are managed.
TracWater Pump & Motor Management System
Alongside water quality assessment, the project also offers a comprehensive Pump & Motor Management System. This system is integrated with a range of sensors including Water Quality Sensors, Nutrient Sensors, Organic Sensors, Algae Sensors, Multiparameter Sondes, and Level Sensors – all found under the TracWater Sensors portfolio. Such a platform emphasizes that consistent monitoring extends beyond the water itself, supporting the infrastructure and ensuring operational safety. This approach results in dynamic and effective management of the entire water distribution network.
