HydroGuard
Co-developed with a major water company, HydroGuard® measures, records and transmits flow, pressure and leak-noise data to provide high integrity monitoring for water trunk and transfer mains, including predictive data.
Sophisticated algorithms are used to compress flow pressure and leak-noise data for transmission by SMS. Following post processing analysis of the incoming data, the HydroGuard determines the failed asset and identifies the shuttable section. A verification test feature has been included within this software to allow full testing to be conducted at water control centres via water company real time processing systems.
The use of a robust, highly sensitive leak noise sensor, with no moving parts, provides a signal with maximum immunity from background noise using sophisticated FFT calculations developed by Ashridge Engineering. The external accelerometer can be used in situ by 3rd party correlators therefore maximising the use of the sensors.
