Modern municipal sewer and water facilities are reliant on precise flow control and monitoring equipment to ensure seamless operations and uphold safety standards. From ultrasonic level systems that preemptively address flood-prone sites to electromagnetic flowmeters for use in partially filled pipes, the industry's innovative technologies are advancing operational accuracy and efficiency. Meanwhile, cloud-based monitoring solutions enable professionals to stay updated in real-time, irrespective of their location. Check out some product options below.

ADS ForeSITE FS-UL
The ForeSITE FS-UL ultrasonic level system from ADS Environmental is a solution for flood-prone site monitoring. The low-cost system includes all hardware and software necessary for continuous monitoring of vulnerable locations with two user-defined alarm levels. Moreover, it elevates communication reliability with its redundant cellular communication. The system automatically accesses one of two providers, selecting the most efficient connection, assuring communication continues during critical events. It requires very low maintenance, and its long-life battery enables up to four years of operation. Its compact 3.5-inch height by 4.9-inch diameter provides inconspicuous mounting in remote locations. It is also used for monitoring in stormwater vaults and outfalls, rivers, streams, lakes, reservoirs and canals. 877-237-9585; www.adsenv.com

KROHNE TIDALFLUX 2300 
KROHNE’s TIDALFLUX 2300 electromagnetic flowmeter with a capacitive level measurement for use in partially filled pipes, is a suitable solution for flow measurement of municipal or industrial wastewater in unpressurized transport lines. This magmeter is also suitable for measurement of effluent brine from dredging, mining or sea/well water injection applications. Unlike open channel systems, this full-bore inline flowmeter is a closed-pipe measuring solution without obstructions and with a much better accuracy at a lower overall cost of ownership. It can be used in full pipes and measures down to 10% full in pipe diameters from 8 to 72 inches. It is traceably accurate to ±1% at maximum flow rates. It is a cost-saving and much safer alternative to open channel systems. 800-356-9464; www.us.krohne.com
