Spring water in full view
Digital remote monitoring of a clean water source
The municipality of Titterten in the canton of Basel-Landschaft uses a spring in the countryside to supply the village with water. However, the aging pipeline and recent increases in dry spells began to present challenges to the water commission.
System overview for monitoring the spring discharge in Titterten
Flow measurement at the source
Result
-
With the Promag W 800 and Netilion's IIoT ecosystem, the municipality can check the spring discharge remotely, evaluate data, and find leaks before they get worse.
-
In relation to climate change, Promag W 800 and Netilion can analyze how much the recent droughts are lowering the water volume.
-
Overall, Promag W 800 and Netilion's IIoT services contribute to the stability of Titterten's water supply.
"Thanks to Digital Solutions from Endress+Hauser, we can monitor the spring discharge without having to be on site. Retrieving the data in Netilion makes it easier to operate the water network."
President of the water commission, Municipality of Titterten
Challenges
The spring is in a wooded area with rough terrain and no electricity, making on-site manual readings necessary, but difficult. The water commission needed a way to measure the water flow and transmit that information independent of the public electricity network.
Solution
Endress+Hauser's proline Promag W 800 flowmeter uses two batteries to provide an off-grid, redundant power supply. The sensor records the flow value every 15 minutes and sends the data daily to the Netilion digital service via a secure LTE connection.
Netilion Value allows data analysis and transfers the information monthly to the process control system via CSV export. Netilion Health monitors the status of the device and alerts maintenance to any issues.
Scope
The following digital components and services were used:
Electromagnetic flowmeter - Proline Promag W 800 (battery operation or LTE data transmission) uses a remote transmitter to protect the electronics for potential overflowing and can be adjusted for saving battery life.
Netilion Value - digital monitoring service allows access to the measurements anytime and anywhere.
Netilion Health - digital service for device monitoring keeps maintenance teams a step ahead of problems.
