New Intellisonde for intake and outfall monitoring
INTELLITECT WATER is trialling a
new version of the in-pipe Intellisonde
multiparameter water quality monitor which has been
designed for environmental applications.
The new instrument, known as 'Intellisonde
EM' ( Effluent Monitoring) will be deployed in fresh water intakes at treatment works and treated waste water outflows. Intellisonde EM
will log water quality and raise alarms for each
parameter when GPRS is enabled.
This will be a major advantage for control and
instrumentation engineers because it will give them
cost-effective remote access to water quality at key
locations (even the smallest of plants) in addition to
alarm messaging by sms before pre-set conditions are breached, thereby enabling them to undertake timely corrective action.
Intellisondes contain a tiny sonde head that
incorporates a number of solid-state sensors.
Users of the Intellisonde EM will be able to select from Dissolved Oxygen, Conductivity, Temperature, Turbidity, ORP, pH and Ammonium. At a
treatment plant outfall, a small quantity of the discharge is diverted through a flow-though pipe connection that exposes the sensors to the outgoing
water. The monitored water is then
returned to the discharge stream.
A similar process applies to installations at
abstraction points.
Alternatively, river or reservoir water quality can be
monitored through continuous sampling with a submersible pump that incorporates an integral strainer.
Summarising the benefits of the
new Intellisonde EM, Intellitect CEO Tony Halker said,
"In comparison with traditional techniques this represents a substantial saving in
both costs and maintenance."
Key features of the technology
include:
o Solid state membrane-free sensor technology
o Tiny plug-and-play sensors
o No requirement for chemical reagents
o Robust and highly accurate
o Built in data logger
o GPRS capability
o Easy to use, with no special software
The major benefit of Intellitect's products is that they provide water companies with access to water quality data after it leaves the treatment plant and before it reaches the consumer.
