IOT Sensors for Remote Monitoring Manholes by EJ Australia

IOT Sensors for Remote Monitoring Manholes by EJ Australia.

Working together with Hynds NZ and Hygrade Water, the EJ team in Brisbane is collaborating on the installation of IOT sensors for the remote monitoring of manholes. Through the marriage of digital communication technology and strategically located manhole covers, it is possible to create a network of unobtrusive "eyes and ears" in the ground, that can drastically improve infrastructure care and protection.

Typically, when it comes to maintaining municipal infrastructure, asset owners can only reactively handle issues after they've occurred, due to the size and inaccessibility of the subsurface systems. With the Hynds Smarterwater monitoring system, however, potential issues can be predicted before they occur, and evasive action can be taken in advance. With a system like the Smarterwater in place, city, district or regional councils can actively reduce the odds of flooding, overflow and other failures.

Utilising non-contact radar technology, the Smarterwater system can reliably and accurately deliver real-time data to asset owners through a network of sensors attached underneath access covers. As the primary point of entry to many strategic assets such as sewer, stormwater, water, gas, lighting, electricity, and telecommunications, manhole covers are ideal for essential data collection. Additionally, by situating the devices underneath covers, the sensors are easily accessible, making restoration or replacement simple.

EJ are proud to be working with Hynds on supplying custom-ready covers that can accommodate the integral sensors. Each step taken toward widespread use will make infrastructure safer and more reliable than ever. Now that's the ANZAC spirit - mates working with mates from Australia & NZ.
