Services for the Remote Monitoring of the Distribution Grid

CPL CONCORDIA supports distribution companies interested in remote water monitoring with dedicated services based on software products installed at CPL’s data centre and are available round-the-clock via the Web interface. Customers need not install any dedicated software products or carry out maintenance or update the necessary servers and database continuously.

 

CPL guarantees the availability and operation of the Web platform, so it can monitor and manage the operating state of its plants completely independently. The web platform can manage different types of peripherals: always connected, i.e. with real-time data updates, or with periodic data transmission (as is the case with battery-powered devices), and different communication channels, such as GPRS, UMTS, LTE, ADSL, LAN, and more.

The platform supports management of different types of meters and sensors, such as hour counters and gas volume converters, gas spectrometers, and other types of meters. This makes it possible to compare the data and consumption measured by the different measuring devices and identify any abnormal consumption and improvement areas.

Thanks to the ability to handle different communication protocols, regardless of whether standard or proprietary, a single Web platform can manage several peripheral devices, also of different brands, which would otherwise need as many dedicated software products.

 

CPL offers the following services to distribution companies who wish to monitor their water consumption and detect leaks:

  • Consumption monitoring: service for monitoring water consumption and distribution grid pressures; it offers the option of dividing the grid into districts and analyse the consumption and pressure trends of each individual section, making comparisons with other grids. Customer can perform the following operations: overview and detailed view of each individual section, consumption data display, data export to chart or table
  • Consumption alert and monitoring: this service monitors consumption and pressures at measuring points and offers customers the possibility to receive alarm or pre-alarm messages when actual consumption overshoots one or more preset consumption thresholds (balance mode), or when forecast consumption based on consumption history exceeds the set thresholds (forecast mode). It also provides alarms for abnormal pressures. Customer can perform the following operations: overview and detailed view of each individual point, section of individual grid or of several distinct grids, manage personnel on call to send any alerts, display of consumption data, data export to chart or table.
  • Leak detection: this service is aimed at identifying possible leaks by analysing consumption and grid pressures. Special algorithms analyse the different consumption patterns of monitored customers, and of the pressures occurring in the different grid sections, compare them and automatically identify abnormal points where a leak is likely occurring.
