Monitoring of Combined Sewer Overflow made easy with Flygt Outstation from ITT Water & Wastewater

Water authority engineers can now be assured of meeting industry regulations for Combined Sewer Overflow (CSO) flows with the Flygt D7160ex Outstation from ITT Water & Wastewater, the UK and Ireland’s leading water and wastewater treatment equipment specialist.

The Flygt D7160ex Series is ideal for easy CSO monitoring because it can be safely located in the chamber itself.  ATEX (the name commonly given to the framework for controlling explosive atmospheres and the standards of equipment and protective systems used in them) approved by the British Approval Service for Electrical Equipment in Flammable Atmospheres (BASEEFA) for operation in explosive atmospheres – it provides a reliable solution to engineers.  It can run sequences and provide vital information including actual flow, total flow volume, total flow duration and number of overflows – all via a GSM link to a Masterstation.
Powering itself and associated instrumentation for over two years using internal batteries, the Flygt D7160ex is ideal for confined and remote environments where mains power is not suitable, but where the functionality and communication of an outstation is still required – like CSOs.
The product works in conjunction with ITT Monitoring & Control products and existing drivers or Modbus and will carry the DNPv3 WITS standard when available.  It is also compatible with the full range of Flygt products.
Guy Fitzpatrick, Market Development / Product Marketing Manager – Monitoring & Control for ITT Water & Wastewater commented: “We have used our extensive knowledge of monitoring and controlling a wide range of applications in the utilities and industrial markets to develop the Flygt D7160ex.
“The added value for our customers is the product’s ability to meet the reporting requirements of water authorities concerning CSO thresholds and provide a reliable solution to protecting the CSO’s surrounding environment.”
