Challenges in natural water monitoring Lightning strikes Extreme temperatures Very remote and hostile environments Salt corrosion Narrow bore wells Vandalism Independent power supply required Difficult to access areas for installation, repair and calibration Shallow water or dry river beds Surface debris and foaming Underwater debris Large changes in depth

Solutions in natural water monitoring All our components are designed and built to perform in the most hostile of environments. Difficult installation sites Natural water monitoring challenges • Surface debris and foaming Hostile Environments • Independent power supply required Piezo resistive sensing elements and analogue electronics enable pulse power operation with readings taken in as little as 10 ms. This significantly reduces energy consumption. Voltage outputs reduce current consumptions to a few mA and in short cable run applications, mV output sensors reduce the power on time and...

Challenges in drinking water Needed in remote, inaccessible locations Limited spaces in bore holes Compatibility with treatment chemicals Difficult to access for repair or calibration Used across large surface areas Monitoring subtle changes over long periods of time

Solutions in drinking water Drinking water monitoring challenges Narrow bore wells Each one of our components is designed and built for reliability at every stage of the cycle. Highest accuracy Low power Long service intervals Subtle changes over long time Media compatibility 17.5mm diameter construction reduces the size of bore holes required minimising drilling costs for water extraction. The stiffness of titanium allows narrow body construction without compromising performance or stability. High quality screened cable and 4-20 mA signals are mechanically robust and immune from...

Challenges in waste water management Blocked line of sight and surface foaming Difficult to access for repair or calibration Used in areas of low pressure Extreme temperatures Explosive atmospheres No power available May come into contact with violently moving debris

Solutions in waste water management All our components are designed and built for stability, no matter what the conditions. • Explosive atmospheres Waste water can release explosive methane. This means that many chambers are designated as hazardous areas. Products used in these areas need to be certified as safe for use. Druck pressure sensor products carry a wide range of certifications for use in such areas allowing installation using different safety rules to suit the application and validity in most countries around the world. • Blocked line of sight and surface foaming • Contact with...
