How Low-Cost IoT Technology Manages a Pump System’s Health & Efficiency
THE HEARTBEAT of U.S. water and wastewater infrastructure is the millions of pump systems that move water through networks of underground pipes to the points of use. Pumps are the critical operational equipment in this delivery, and their health and efficiency are important to all utility personnel including management, operations and maintenance. Limited resources and a lack of technological solutions have hindered the ability of many utilities to manage pump systems.
Celebrate Smart Irrigation Month

by changing the sprinkler control valve pulse rate for individual sectors of a field.
JULY IS Smart Irrigation Month! This initiative from the Irrigation Association is used to promote the social, economic, and environmental benefits of efficient irrigation technologies in landscape, turf, and agricultural irrigation. Optimizing water resources is an extremely important part of irrigation.

System Approach & Modeling Lead to a Reduced Impeller Diameter
Figure 1: Process system with one pump operating
EVERY ELEMENT found in a piping system falls into one of three categories: pump, process and control. The secret to understanding any piping system is to have detailed knowledge of the various pieces of equipment and how they work together.
For example, if a pump is not sized properly to meet the system’s process requirements, all the equipment within the system will be affected.
