As the world continues to grow, urban infrastructure becomes ever more important. One such area is water distribution systems. These systems are responsible for providing water to homes and businesses, but they’re also incredibly complex and require frequent maintenance and management. To make matters worse, these systems can’t always be manually monitored due to onsite staff shortages and budget restraints.
Fortunately, there is now a way to remotely monitor and manage water distribution systems more effectively. This technology, known as “remote monitoring and management” (RMM) technology, is designed to give operators a better understanding of their water networks, allowing them to more efficiently diagnose, repair, and maintain their systems.
How Does Remote Monitoring and Management Work?
Monitoring Devices
At the core of remote monitoring and management for water distribution systems are the monitoring devices. These RMM tools are designed to record water pressure, temperature, and flow at regular intervals. The data collected from devices like flow monitors and pressure monitors is then stored in an online database and can be accessed remotely from anywhere.
These monitoring devices are generally smaller in size than traditional monitoring equipment and can be installed in any part of the system with relative ease. This allows water distribution systems to be monitored and managed remotely without the need to physically access the entire system.
Communication System
The second key component of remote monitoring and management for water distribution systems is the communication system. This system enables the monitoring devices to transmit their data to an online dashboard or portal. This portal can then be accessed remotely to view the data collected in real time and can be used to analyze the data to detect any inconsistencies or problems.
For example, if any pressure drops or flow rate changes dramatically, this can alert the water system operators that they may need further investigation. This can help identify potential problems and make informed decisions quickly, reducing the risk of repairs needed in the future.
Data Analytics
The final piece of the puzzle is data analytics. Data analytics allow users to analyze the collected data and identify any patterns or trends in the data. This can be helpful in understanding where there are areas of inefficiency or issues in the system that may require further investigation or maintenance.
For example, data analysis can reveal when a certain pressure level has been exceeded in certain pipes or certain areas where water flow is not efficient, resulting in higher bills and problems for the system. Data analysis can also reveal any leaks in the system that can lead to water loss and other costly problems.
