Quantum Unit Saves Money, Time and Reduces Carbon Footprint
Feb 21 2011
Pulsar Process Measurement (UK) have developed a new pump station control device based on proven non-contacting ultrasonic measurement techniques.
In response to specific requests from the waste water industry, Pulsar have developed a new unit, named Quantum, featuring a control set that meets the needs of an organisation controlling multi-pump installations over a wide geographical area, minimising the number of visits by maintenance staff and automating certain functions.
The immediate result has been a reduction in ‘nuisance’ call-outs to reset pumps of approximately 40%, benefitting both staff efficiency and reducing their business Carbon footprint; in financial terms paying back the investment in under 12 months. Non-contacting ultrasonic level, flow measurement, and control is a well-established technique throughout the worldwide water and waste water industries, with many tens of thousands of installations in operation. The latest equipment makes use of extremely sophisticated digital echo processing techniques such as Pulsar’s DATEM to disregard competing return signals from items like ladders or flanges in an often narrow and cluttered environment and provide accurate, robust measurement.
