The Task
Selwood Limited are world leaders in pumping solutions, including waste removal. Their customer, the Canal & River Trust looks after 2,000 miles of waterways, including hundreds of septic tanks for boat-users’ waste. These needed to be emptied at minimal cost, whilst avoiding emergency collections & hazardous overspills.
The Solution
PowTechnology’s Metron IIoT kit remotely monitors waste levels on the tanks. Regular data & high level alarms are sent to both Selwood and the Trust via our MetronView cloud. Low level alerts verify that collections have occurred and an alert identifies if readings have been missed, indicating a possible fault.
The Result
Logistics can be planned based on actual levels & timely alerts. Costly emergency collections are no longer necessary, cutting expense and offering enhanced service to Trust. Historical level data is also available for trend analysis.
Summary
- Reduced logistics costs
- Emergency collections eliminated
- Overspills eliminated
- Value-added service
