The Internet of Things (IoT)<\/a> is revolutionizing a number of fields in our day and age, including water management. By means of IoT technology, water utilities may enhance their operations, boost efficiency, and ensure the dependability of clean water distribution to societies.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n This case study looks at how IoT has been used by a reputable water company in a coastal and mountainous city to enhance water management practices.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Managing its vast network of water supply and wastewater treatment plants was a difficulty for the water business, in charge of providing clean water to over 10 million residents and tourists. The firm started an IoT project to link several pump stations to a central control center, therefore allowing real-time monitoring and control.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Prior to enhancing the water management system, the company faces the following challenges:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Operating in demanding settings with high temperatures, the pump stations housed a wide spectrum of devices ranging from variable frequency motors to pumps to PLCs. Reliable communication and equipment protection suffered in this complicated surroundings.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The city’s mountainous terrain made it difficult to visit various facilities, which resulted in remote management and lower demand for on-site personnel.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The pump stations made use of PLCs from several vendors, each with own protocols and setups. One major challenge was combining several protocols and MQTT data transfer to the cloud platform.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n In order to solve the challenges faced by the water company, they have used an IoT technology. This IoT technology from Robustel have the following features:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n The R3000 Lite<\/a> was chosen to link the PLCs because of its optical isolation, which allowed it to run in severe temperatures and resist the complex electromagnetic environment.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\nThe Background:<\/h2>\n
