SOFREL LS: The District Metering Area Solution for your Water Networks

Water authorities and operators face a series of challenges on a daily basis: preserving the supply of water, monitoring the volume conveyed by networks, detecting leaks, cost-cutting, and reducing Non Revenue Water (NRW). By providing you with remote water pressure readings daily, SOFREL LS enhances your District Metering Area (DMA) diagnostics and alerts you rapidly to sudden leaks.

Reducing Non Revenue Water (NRW) with SOFREL LS

SOFREL LS helps you reduce Non Revenue Water (NRW) by:

• Transferring water pressure readings and metering data daily to a central control system
• Providing comprehensive pressure monitoring information for District Area diagnostics
• Allowing you to set flow thresholds triggering water leak alerts
• Being perfectly adapted to the environmental constraints of the meter chamber (moisture, isolated location without an electricity supply, weak GSM coverage etc.)
• Providing long-term results for analysis of water network efficiency and areas with greatest water leakage
• Recording minimum night flow to facilitate leak detection
• Taking account of key customers for more accurate flow measurement diagnostics

Remote Pressure Monitoring and District Metering Areas (DMAs) in Practice

Dividing a network into District Metering Areas (DMAs) is a more effective strategy if it is linked to the new technologies offered by remote water network management. The flow meters used in District Metering Areas can be connected to a SOFREL LS, a District Metering GSM/GPRS data logger which continuously records information from every meter on the water network, and transmits remote meter reading data daily. SOFREL LS is the latest tool for District Metering Areas, offering numerous innovations for water leak detection and effectively enhancing the efficiency of water networks.
