Users of level monitoring solutions based on GaugerGSM systems can now develop their own monitoring software with the aid of the released ICD. The new Interface Control Document provides detailed information for both GPRS and SMS interfaces. In addition, a file interface may be employed, relieving the programmers from any communication task. GaugerGSM transmits ready-made alerts for disturbing ...
Monitoring water levels can have numerous environmental benefits and is a popular measurement for a number of different industries and organisations. Below we will discuss some of the common applications water level monitoring devices, as well as some of the valuable insights that recording this can reveal. Remote water level monitoring Whereas water level monitoring used to be done by ...
Groundwater monitoring plays a significant role in groundwater management. This study presents an optimization method for designing groundwater-level monitoring networks. The proposed design method was used in the Eshtehard aquifer, in central Iran. Three scenarios were considered to optimize the locations of the observation wells: (1) designing new monitoring networks, (2) redesigning ...
It’s a question as old as the Internet. Cellular and Satellite communications have been battling it out for a couple of decades now – which in today’s world of lightning fast technological advancement feels like an eternity. Will one ever supplant the other? Is there a king of communications for remote monitoring technology out there? Well, sorry to disappoint so soon, but in ...

Background - The business of sewage level monitoring in sewers is accelerating across many countries. Strict regulations, the need to avoid environmental disasters, violation fines, early warnings and planning needs are just some of the forces shaping this growing trend. Challenges Quantifying sewage flow and level is one of the most challenging engineering tasks for the instrumentation ...
Reference Project: Regional Ground Water Level Monitoring, Germany ribeka is responsible for monitoring the ground water levels within an area of over 4.000 km2 in the western German province of North Rhine-Westphalia. Within this densely populated area that comprises many large cities (e.g. Cologne and Bonn) as well as Europe’s biggest brown coal open mining site, extensive ground water ...
When it comes to picking a level sensor for remote tank monitoring you have an important choice to make: do you get a level sensor that uses a wired Ethernet connection or one with a self-contained cellular connection? As everything seems to be headed towards wireless these days, the knee-jerk response would be to buy the cellular sensor. It may be a good choice if conditions are ideal, but it's ...
There are a lot of applications for remote level monitoring. Some of them have been around for a while, and the owners, operators, and engineers involved in purchasing remote systems are well versed in the options available and the cost associated. However, as more people learn about the technology and how it can benefit them, there are many who don’t understand what it takes to deploy ...
Over the past decade, we have seen a continual rise in demand for remote tank level monitoring solutions that utilize cellular networks. Cellular networks provide many benefits to tank operators that have tanks spread out over large geographical areas. Ease of access to information, the ability to respond quickly to alarms, and improved inventory planning are some of these benefits to name a few. ...
If you find yourself visiting a remote tank level monitoringsite for troubleshooting and maintenance too often, then you are losing out on the benefit of having a remote monitoring system. This can happen to you when your sensors and their systems are either inadequate or installed improperly. So what can be done to ensure that you don’t end up in this sort of situation? Here are ...
OBTAINING SUPERIOR WATER LEVEL ACCURACY IN COASTAL ENVIRONMENTS In-Situ Inc. water level instruments measure the sum of all pressures (atmospheric and hydrostatic) exerted on a pressure transducer and use that data to calculate water levels. Water density contributes to the total hydrostatic pressure. Saltwater has a higher specific gravity than fresh water. A standard column of saltwater exerts ...
In the world of technology stars, capacitance has been type-casted. For over 100 years, capacitance has performed in countless applications for industrial control and automation. It is routinely used for high and low level alarm, continuous level monitoring, interface transmitters, plugged chute detection and even dry pump control. As new technologies have been introduced, such as ultrasonics, ...
Want to avoid wires? Want to lower the cost of installing sensors? If so, a wireless mesh is a good way to go. It’s a great solution for both remote and local tank level monitoring, and it’s an industrial grade, reliable, and proven technology. What is a wireless mesh? A wireless mesh network is a series of radios that talk to each other. It’s a point to multi-point radio ...
