Surface and Groundwater

Surface water can be affected by land use, agricultural practices, pollution and climate change. As you already know, monitoring and treatment of surface water requires significant investments in time and money. These investments and public health may be jeopardized if surface water changes during extreme events or contamination.

SonTek and other Xylem instruments work to provide a continuous and comprehensive record of water quantity and quality. Our instruments provide the reliable data you need to act quickly, work efficiently and reduce costs.

We understand the challenges of working in natural environments. Our systems play a key role in improving water quality and plant efficiency, while allowing for early warning and rapid response to events such as floods and algal blooms.

Logging data far away from urban areas is handled by a battery powered datalogger, that gather information and send the information to a SCADA system, dedicated databases or even as e-mails when its suitable to do so.

Publicly placed dataloggers are vandal protected, and will send a warning when intruders act.

Sending data once a day will provide at battery life time of up to 5 years.

Information on ground water levels and early warning sewer systems in correlation with buildings nearby urban construction can save millions of Euros in damage.
