Smartrek: Vacuum Sewer Monitoring

Vacuum sewer uses vacuum pumps to maintain a continuous vacuum pressure on the system and collection system, ensuring that wastewater is conveyed from properties to a treatment facility efficiently. Vacuum valves at each sewage input point seal the system; when this happens, the differential pressure propels the wastewater through the piping to the vacuum station. To minimize disruption caused by malfunctions, a remote monitoring system can be used to monitor the system and response times from multiple locations. This allows for quick and proper identification and resolution of any issues that may arise, helping to maintain the system’s smooth operation.

Prior using our monitoring solution many operators experienced that it can take a while to trace the source of an issue in a vacuum sewer system, but once they’ve identified the issue, it can be fixed quickly.

Smartrek’s wireless remote monitoring solution makes sewer maintenance a breeze by providing real-time data with our pressure, vacuum, water level, and ultrasonic sensors. We pinpoint exactly where and when a fault occurs, so maintenance crews can quickly resolve any issues. This helps to eliminate any guesswork and ensure reliable operation of your vacuum sewer system.

A sudden fluctuation in vacuum pressure can drastically affect your equipment and operations. The Smartrek monitoring system provides real-time data insights into the performance of your system which will alert you when such changes occur proactively.

Our pressure A-Link can monitor liquid in a wide variety of environments. We offer several options to suit your needs, from submersible transducers to intrinsically safe transducers.

Our web app allows you to access and analyze data, track trends, and generate reports for regulatory agencies. Easy integration is also possible into your SCADA system.

What makes Smartrek different from others and how does the system work!

At Smartrek, we provide turnkey wireless monitoring solutions. We effectively connect and operate remotely, networks of sensors giving you real time information on what is happening in your water and wastewater distribution and collection systems.

Powered by Spidermesh, our proprietary radio mesh protocol, we can develop custom networks of sensors based on the data you need and the topology of the terrain, giving you the highest quality of data in the industry. By acquiring Smartrek, you become independent from any third party connectivity providers and own your infrastructures, avoiding recurrent cost, complex installation and technology obsolescence.
