BSC-50: Sewer water monitoring

 

Introduction

For water authorities, municipal water, and wastewater plants, it is imperative to have a low cost, low-maintenance solution that delivers automatically wastewater data. Such data are used by authorities to prevent overspills and contaminations.

 

BSC-50 is a GSM/GPRS low power datalogger capable to handle demanding applications such as alarming and monitoring of sewer waste water.

 

 

Requirements

- Monitor the level of sewer water in underground open channel pipe systems using a GSM/GPRS RTU.

- Reliable device operating in extreme conditions, with an IP68 housing.

- Operate for more than 3 years on a single D size power cell.

 

Proposal

 

Infinite BSC-50 is a GSM/GPRS Edge compatible cellular RTU solution designed specifically for remote low power telemetry systems.

 

A BSC-50 ultra low power GSM datalogger equipped with an Ultrasonic sensor is ideal for open channel flow monitoring featuring advanced relay alarming.

 

Using proven continuous ultrasonic echo ranging technology to monitor water and wastewater

of any consistency up to 7 m in depth. Achievable resolution is 0.1 % with accuracy to 0.25 % of range.

Immune to problems caused by suspended solids, harsh corrosives, grease or silt in the effluent, reducing downtime.

 

A BSC-50 is an ultra low power device consuming less than 40 micro Ampere.

 

For example a BSC that measures every 15 minutes, alarms immediately and sends logged data every 6 hours will operate on one Lithium Thionyl D type 3.6V battery for more than 5 years.

 

 

Why BSC-50

- All-in-one cellular GPRS quadband solution

- Ultra low power, can run for years on one D type battery

- Real-time alarming and data logging

- Easy to implement and maintain

- Seamless connection to SCADA via OPC server

- SMS alarms and M2M functionality
