Drinking Water Monitoring  – Overview

The pipe::scan is a sensor system for monitoring drinking water quality in pipes under pressure. It measures up to 10 parameters in one device: TOC, DOC, UV254, Turbidity, Color, Chlorine, pH/Redox, Conductivity, Temperature and Pressure. The water quality data can be sent to any central database via almost any protocol. Multiple pipe::scans are the ideal solution to monitor drinking water at any point in the network.

The con::cube is a compact, powerful and versatile terminal for data acquisition and station control. Integrating the newest processor technology, con::cube’s very flexible options for interfacing to sensors, SCADA or any central database system make it perfect for remote monitoring. Due to its low power consumption, this terminal fits the requirements for operation in decentralized installation sites.

Features of the pipe::scan:

• Accurate measurement comparable to standardised lab reference
• Organics and Turbidity monitoring
• Totally flow-independent, even works under stagnating conditions
• Hot-maintenance: without interrupting the flow/pressure, and for each sensor individually
• Full-scale event detection with real-time alarms within the drinking water distribution network
• 6 months service time: Efficient, reliable stand-alone operation without maintenance
