Fire Flow Testing

One person can do it all
Performing fire flow tests is easy using the HPR fire flow kit. Simply attach one HPR to the residual hydrant and one HPR with diffuser to the flow hydrant. Using your Palm data transfer unit (DTU), you can do on-the-spot data analysis. You can also take the Palm DTU back to your office and view the data on your PC.

The kit comes with two HPRs, a diffuser, communications cables and space for a Telog Palm DTU all in a heavy duty foam lined case.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remote PRV Monitoring

Problem:  Retrieving data from PRV's

Solution: Telog's RS-33 Remote Monitoring System

Benefits: Real-time readings can now be viewed from your computer

 

Telog’s remote data acquisition system, the RS-33 may be permanently installed to provide year round monitoring of input and output pressure of pressure reducing valves. Additionally, the RS-33 can record flow through the station if flow meters are installed. With the RS-33, everything you need for PRV monitoring — a multi-channel recorder, communications options including wireless and a power supply is included.

This paperless system records and stores data in its memory for later transfer to a computer for data review and reporting. Recorded data may be gathered via an RS-232 connector using Telog’s PalmPilot based DTU (Data Transfer Unit) or a laptop. At times when on-site data evaluation is required, a laptop and Telogers for Windows software, is all you need.

 

 

Collection Stations Monitoring

Problem:

High cost of manually collecting billing data.

Solution: 

RS-33 remote monitoring system with R-3307 recorders

Benefits:

Billing data is automatically sent to host computer in plant, eliminating the cost of manually collecting data every 2-3 days.

A wastewater municipality recently bought 17 R-3307 Telogers recorders to monitor its wastewater collection sites.

Before the Telogers installations, the wastewater facility employees had to travel out to each area collection site every two or three days to get readings for billing its large commercial sites. The cost and inconvenience of the collection and billing procedure prompted an evaluation of competitive automatic remote data acquisition systems. Telogers won approval based on its overall performance, purchase cost and economy of operation.

At the collection sites, R-3307 Teloger recorders collect data from the wastewater outflow pipes that are fitted with Badger ultrasonic flow meters. Telogers collect flow and level data from the meters, calculate the interval data and daily flow totals, and send the information automatically to the Telogers for Windows system software in the utility central billing office. The utility then uses its own billing software to generate bills to its customers.

 

Telog Instruments, Inc. offers a comprehensive remote monitoring system, Telogers, for wastewater collection system operators. Telogers provides an automated system of collecting, archiving, presenting and sharing data from collection system remote assets such as flowmeters, rain gauges, CSO/SSO surcharge sensors, lift stations, pretreatment water quality sensors, and pressure sensors. This document describes the Telogers system and addresses specific application solutions for collection system operators. Key benefits of the Telogers system include:

remote site real-time and historic data access

common data platform for all collection system parameters

alarm notification and alarm forwarding management

choice of communication technologies

compatibility with proprietary flowmeters

low power remote site operation

system scalability

automated operation

low procurement and lifetime operating cost of ownership

 

 

Lift Station Monitoring

Problem:

Unknown condition of lift station pump.

Solution: 

RS-33 remote monitoring system with R-3307 recorders

Benefits: 

 

Alarm notification, critical information for planning stations and sizing pipelines.

Wastewater flows downhill and is pumped to higher elevations by lift stations located at strategic locations throughout the system. These pump or lift stations generally have redundant pumps for reliability and to handle peak flow periods, e.g., half-time during the Super Bowl. Lift stations also have sump level detectors, flow meters and pump controllers.

The customer is monitoring the intermittent on/off operation of each pump as well as the water flow through the pump station.

The correlation of pump run-time with water flow for each recorded period provides useful information on the condition of a pump. The recorder will also produce alarm notification when the pumps stop operating or when wastewater levels exceed limits.

The trend of water flow data collected at the flow meter gives design engineers peak demand information for planning stations and sizing pipelines. The total water flow of each recording period is used to document combined sewer overflow (CSO) and to bill large customers and other smaller water municpals using the system.

 

 

CSO Monitoring and SSO Monitoring

Problem:

CSO/SSO

Solution: 

CSO-31 CSO/SSO Event Recorder

Benefits:

Cost effectively collects CSO event data including, event time stamping, duration of event.

The SSO-31 measures and records surcharges including the time, date, level, and duration of each event. In a typical application, the SSO-31 can be configured to sample level every five seconds and save surcharge event history for more than three months. Data stored in the SSO-31 may be conveniently collected and transferred to the user's host computer using a Palm Pilot based data transfer unit or directly to a laptop running Telogers for Windows software.

The SSO-31 is a rugged design, constructed of 316 stainless steel and polyurethane cable. It can be permanently installed in a wastewater manhole. The unit is hung near the top of the manhole using supplied mounting brackets and a hanging chain. This makes installation easy and permits data collection with NO confined entry. With battery life typically exceeding seven years, maintenance costs are practically non-existent.
