Leak Detection, Pressure Monitoring and Control
Tailor made solution for utility companies to monitor pressure, flow, level and consumption
This solution is designed to address Non-Revenue Water (NRW) challenges by providing advanced leak detection, pressure monitoring, and control capabilities.
It integrates flow monitoring, pressure management, and tank level monitoring to optimize water distribution networks, reduce water losses, and improve operational efficiency.
The final goal is to improve the water balance of the utility operator, to allow timely leak detection and to reduce the water loss.
Key Components of the Solution
-
1. Flow Monitoring
- Utilizes industrial water meters and ultrasonic flow meters to accurately measure water flow in pipelines.
- Detects anomalies in flow patterns that may indicate leaks or unauthorized usage.
-
2. Pressure Monitoring and Management
- Employs IoT data loggers to monitor pressure levels in real time across the water distribution network.
- Helps identify pressure zones with high leakage risks and enables proactive pressure management.
-
3. IoT Data Loggers
- Collects data from flow meters, pressure sensors, and tank level sensors.
- Transmits data via global network services (e.g., LoRaWAN, NB-IoT, GSM) for real-time monitoring and analysis.
-
4. Device Management and Control Platform
- A centralized platform for managing and controlling all connected devices.
- Enables remote configuration, diagnostics, and firmware updates.
-
5. Dynamic Intelligent Map Portal
- Provides a visual representation of the water distribution network, including flow, pressure, and tank level data.
- Features real-time data visualization and alarming for quick identification of leaks, pressure drops, or other anomalies.
-
6. Integration with Controllers for Automated PRV Control:
- Can be combined with controllers to monitor and automate Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV) operations, ensuring optimal pressure levels and reducing water losses.
- Supports integration with pumping station automation solutions for a comprehensive water management system.
