Water Quality (Natural / Urban)
Surveys or medium term deployments, for example for bathing water or CSO discharge monitoring, have requirements for the collection of water quality data.
Parameters
EMS has multi-parameter instrumentation that can be deployed to collect continuous data a combination of temperature, pressure, pH, turbidity, conductivity, DO (dissolved oxygen), ORP (Oxidation Reduction Potential), ammonium, chloride, nitrate.
Other parameters, e.g. BOD, COD, suspended solids, or very specific chemical parameters, can be determined by sampling using automatic samplers, and subsequent lab analysis. This can all be built into the survey.
Remote Monitoring and System Integration
Continuously monitored water quality parameters, or flow or rain gauge information, can be posted on the internet on EMS’s own portal. Clients use EMS’s portal facility to view data which can be pushed regularly (e.g. every 15 minutes).
Water quality or flow data can also be used to trigger, for example, automatic sampling or event logging.
