Pump Station Telemetry are assessed around the pumped liquid, chamber type, pump duty, controls, alarms, floats, valves, rising main, ground conditions and access for future maintenance.
What pump station telemetry are used for
Pump station telemetry and remote alarm monitoring can help identify high level alarms, pump failure or control faults before the chamber floods.
Selection and site considerations
Telemetry may be useful on critical commercial, care home, apartment block, developer, remote or adoptable systems where a local beacon or buzzer is not enough.
Repair, replacement and maintenance considerations
The correct approach depends on the age of the chamber, pump duty, condition of floats, valves, non-return valves, guide rails, control panel, alarms, rising main and access. Alton Pumps can support the pumping equipment and Alton Facility Services can support civils where excavation, chambers, pipework or reinstatement are required.
What to send before attendance
Useful information includes the site postcode, photographs of the chamber and control panel, pump model plates, alarm status, inlet depth if known, rising main route, discharge point, access restrictions, and whether the system handles foul sewage, grey water, surface water, rainwater or commercial wastewater.
