Connected Pumping Stations

In a typical water supply network, water is being pumped from river beds to tail end connections through a chain of pumping stations. Each pumping station comprises of a tank (OHT or UGT sump) to store water and a couple of pumps (primary & standby) to pump the water in the tank to the next pumping stations(s). In legacy manual operation of pumping stations, there needs to be phone communication between the station operators to know the tank level of the next station so as to stop or resume pumping accordingly. Human error leads to dry run of pumps when there is no water in the tanks. Practical problems like these are addressed by our solution.

Connected Pumping Stations

The Pain

  • There are hundreds of water pumping stations operating in a disconnected manner.
  • High repairs cost due to frequent dry runs, coil burns etc.
  • Operational inefficiencies like over pumping, insufficient pumping and no guarantee on duration of pumping..
  • Lack of visibility on instrument failure.

The Solution

  • Each pumping station’s control panel was connected to an IoT platform using our gateways.
  • Level, flow and pressure sensors were deployed and connected to the gateways.
  • A web dashboard was developed to view and control the processes in the pumping stations.

Benefits

  • 13% reduction in maintenance and repairs costs.
  • Level, flow and pressure sensors were deployed and connected to the gateways.
  • Instant reporting of instrumentation failure on dashboards.
  • Operator independent AI enabled pumping.
