Pipelife’s smart level sensor uses radar technology to measure fluid levels in tanks, collection chambers and manholes. The battery-powered wireless device enables remote monitoring of your system’s fluid levels via the Pipelife SmartHub — an online interface for visualizing data and receiving notifications.
Integrated fluid level data provides valuable insights for day-to-day asset operation. Discover how Pipelife smart level sensors can optimize your workflow through remote and customizable data management.
1. WHAT IS A SMART LEVEL SENSOR?
A smart level sensor is a compact device that utilizes radar technology to accurately measure fluid levels in various settings. The device is battery-operated and wirelessly transmits data to the Pipelife SmartHub for fluid level monitoring and analysis.
2. WHERE CAN SMART LEVEL SENSORS BE USED?
Our versatile sensor can be utilized in a variety of applications, including:
The compact device can be used in both large and small environments.
3. HOW DOES SMART LEVEL MONITORING HELP STORMWATER MANAGEMENT PROCESSES?
Our smart level sensors seamlessly integrate into existing stormwater management systems, providing a non-intrusive, radar-based solution for precise water level monitoring. They can be simply installed in any of the constituent parts of a comprehensive stormwater system —from collection chambers and grease separators to attenuation tanks and pumping stations.
Via the Pipelife Smarthub, you can monitor stormwater system water levels and utilize the data to avoid overflows, downtime and maintenance.
4. WHAT DATA INSIGHTS DO SMART LEVEL SENSORS PROVIDE?
Smart level sensors measure a range of data points, including:
*Optional
Collected data can be visualized through graphs and reports generated in our SmartHub online platform.
5. HOW DO I ACCESS THE DATA COLLECTED BY THE SMART LEVEL SENSOR?
Data insights from the smart level sensor are accessible through the Pipelife SmartHub — a secure, cloud-based interface that presents data through user-friendly visualizations and reports. The SmartHub can also be used to customize your setup by setting up bespoke notifications and alarm warnings for each device and data category.
SmartHub also offers APIs to integrate the collected data with third-party systems or can implement third-party data validation.
6. HOW COMPLEX IS THE SMART LEVEL SENSOR TO INSTALL?
The device is lightweight, compact and easy to install. We offer various accessories to streamline installation depending on the mounting surface you are working with. The system is also completely wireless, eliminating the need for complex wiring during setup.
7. CAN I SET UP SCENARIO-SPECIFIC ALARMS IN SMARTHUB?
Absolutely. Alarms and alerts can be customized for each data category according to your requirements, allowing for proactive management and immediate response to critical changes in fluid levels or conditions. For example, once you set the level at which you would like to receive alarm notifications, you can also program the device to increase data transmission frequency to ensure you are staying up to date with the situation.
8. HOW DOES SMART LEVEL MONITORING CONTRIBUTE TO SUSTAINABLE WATER MANAGEMENT?
By signaling potential overflows in stormwater and wastewater systems, the smart level sensor helps to prevent pollution and other harmful substances from entering our water supplies.
Once alerted, users can take steps to prevent overflows from occurring. Polluted runoff, therefore, remains in the system rather than making its way into our natural water supplies. The runoff passes through cleaning filters to prepare the water for reuse or infiltration into the soil — saving valuable drinking water resources and supporting natural water cycles.
9. HOW DOES SMART LEVEL MONITORING PREVENT ISSUES?
Through continuous monitoring and customized alarms, the device can alert facility managers to potential issues before they become critical. This allows users to engage in proactive maintenance and avoid costly downtime.
