Remote Pressure Monitoring System

Since pressure management in pipe networks is fundamental to providing safe drinking water, Mueller Co. provides a user-friendly and cost-effective technology to continuously monitor pressure in potable water distribution systems. The pressure monitoring system, typically installed in DMAs or pressure zones; on PRVs; system interconnects; and water storage tanks, reports at user-defined intervals via cellular service. Data is logged; made available for periodic upload; and stored for up to two years on a secure web server. When a pressure spike occurs, utility personnel can be notified within minutes by email and text messaging. This technology is currently available in North America only.
