KONAX - Online and Real-Time Monitoring Systems for Water Treatment
By monitoring, we mean "continuous supervision". A monitoring system is a system that continuously supervises a particular application or process. Incoming information (data) is observed and, if necessary, situations that require intervention are alerted. By using a monitoring system, you continuously monitor your application, allowing you to improve the quality of the process.
Obtaining safe water and biofilm-free water lines is much more complex than just choosing an effective water disinfectant. Everything depends on correct application, dosage and, above all, ensuring that the treatment is not interrupted.
To be sure of safe and healthy drinking water for humans or animals, sporadic sampling and bacteriological water analyses are usually relied upon.
Bacteriological lab analyses to check water quality are not conducted on a daily or weekly basis. As a result, deviations in water quality are not noticed until there are already quality problems (with the finished product) or health complaints are reported (sometimes with fatal results) and it is therefore already too late....
Yet it can be done differently.
Thanks to continuous monitoring of drinking water treatment installations, interruptions are reported immediately.
- By monitoring a number of well-chosen parameters online, it can be deduced whether the (drinking) water quality is satisfactory at any time.
- Continuous automatic monitoring of water consumption also ensures that leaks are quickly detected. A sudden and unexplained drop in water consumption can be an indication of a problem with the pipe system (clogging or unwanted shut-off) or a problem with the user (e.g. illness).
Continuous monitoring provides a guarantee for the correct operation of the automatic water treatment installations. Thanks to built-in alarms and timely notification of abnormal values, adjustments can be made quickly, either automatically or manually.
An online and real-time monitoring system is a valuable tool for any company or organization that wants to improve its water quality and keep it at a constant level.
