Water Monitoring and Metering Applications

Power Failure Monitoring
Power failures stop pumps from running which can lead to overflows, drops in pressure, or loss of water service. Get notified in real-time of all power failures with an OmniSite Remote Equipment Monitoring device.

Pump Run Time Monitoring
OmniSite Crystal Ball and XR50 Remote Monitoring devices automatically provide run time stats on your pumps. This data is available in our exclusive GuardDog web interface and included free with the purchase of any OmniSite Device.

Pump Draw Down Monitoring
Utilizing custom algorithms specifically written for pump and lift stations, our web-based software calculates your pump draw-down stats and logs them for future reporting and/or automatic notifications. 

Tank Level Monitoring
Tanks leak, a small leak may be negligible, but large leaks can be detrimental. Our system interfaces with any 4mA – 20mA output or use our submersible I-Level measurement tool. Monitor tank levels, collect your data for later, and receive notifications when a problem arises. It’s like having a full-time operator at each of your tanks, water towers, reservoirs, and pumps. 

Current Flow Metering
Our easy-to-install and highly accurate current switch interfaces with your equipment to provide pump amperage data for predictive maintenance. The signal is used to detect conditions such as over or under loads, excessive wear, broken belts, and mechanical failure in motors and pumps.

Water Flow Metering
Use an external flow meter with our Crystal Ball monitoring device or rely on our custom algorithm that calculates Gallons Per Minute automatically based on drawdown time and tank level.

Pressure Monitoring
The EPA estimates 240,000 water main breaks occur each year. Water breaks, if left unattended, waste valuable water. They also create a low water-pressure event, which has been linked to self-reported stomach ailments. The OmniSite Remote Monitoring devices can interface with the pressure sensor of your choice. Our 4mA – 20mA input gives you real-time alarm notifications and the GuardDog web interface can log all your pipe pressure data; giving you the ability to run reports and analyze accurate data.

Rain Level Monitoring
Our rain collector interfaces with our Crystal Ball and XR50 units to provide accurate levels down to .01″. This data can be used to set up automatic triggers or alerts. It is also available in our exclusive GuardDog web interface for reporting and analysis. 

 

Cost-Effective and Engineered for Water Pumps
