Evides is a water company that delivers 3.6 billion liters of water per week to 2.5 million customers in the southwest area of the Netherlands. This includes the large port city of Rotterdam, a city of about 650,000 people. In the Hoeksche Waard, south of Rotterdam, Evides was experiencing frequent pressure variations, resulting in a high rate of nonrevenue water and significant repair expenses. To investigate and determine the causes, they worked with Syrinix to deploy a series of PIPEMINDER-ONE pressure monitors throughout the district’s metered area.
