Telemetry & Networking

In many water and wastewater applications, one limiting factor in control system design is communications. Isolated or widely distributed pump stations in hilly terrain, especially when they are not connected to a phone network or power can pose unique challenges. In situations like these deep experience with design alternatives and implementation issues can make all the difference in hitting schedule and budget.

Our communications and telemetry capabilities include:

• Systems include the most recent PS-99 compliant cyber security applications for water, fire or police use
• Telemetry, LAN and WAN systems, including licensed and non-licensed radio, fiber optic, satellite, direct-connect and phone-line for interconnection of distributed systems and users
• On-line and web-based control interfaces to SCADA systems
• Automatic dialing systems and remotely accessed control systems for applications where operations staff is not always present
• Solar based systems can be very useful for remote telemetry sites not served by utility power
