Collection system monitoring gives utilities the visibility needed to identify problems before they escalate. From sewer level trends and inflow and infiltration (I&I) to hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) conditions, near real-time data helps reduce risk, improve maintenance planning and support smarter operational decisions.
Identify rising levels and developing blockages early to reduce overflow risk, protect public health and avoid costly cleanup events.
Real-time alerts give operators advance notice so they can take action before conditions escalate.
Move from calendar-based maintenance to condition-based cleaning using real system data.
Focus resources where they’re needed most, reducing unnecessary cleanings while improving overall system performance.
Correlate rainfall and sewer response to locate problem areas and prioritize system improvements.
Better visibility helps target rehabilitation efforts and reduce excess flow entering the system.
Monitor hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) levels to reduce odor complaints and control corrosion-related costs.
Data-driven insights support more effective chemical dosing and help extend the life of critical infrastructure.
Manhole-cover-mounted solutions can be configured without entering confined spaces—reducing safety risks and labor demands.
Iridium satellite connectivity ensures continuous data transmission, even in remote locations or during extreme weather.
The Smart Nodal Analysis Protocol (SNAP) uses geospatial modeling to guide deployment for maximum system visibility.
Insight reports highlight trends, risks and performance issues to support faster, more informed decision-making.
Collection systems operate under constantly changing conditions—from storm events to FOG buildup and aging infrastructure. Without visibility, issues often go undetected until they become costly failures. With near real-time monitoring and system-wide data, utilities can:
✓ Detect issues earlier
✓ Respond faster to changing conditions
✓ Reduce emergency maintenance
✓ Improve long-term infrastructure planning

San Antonio Water System used SmartCover monitoring to shift from routine cleaning to condition-based maintenance—cutting cleaning activity by 95%, preventing thousands of SSOs and saving an estimated $1M in operational costs.
Pima County deployed a network of real-time H₂S sensors to identify problem areas, optimize chemical dosing and reduce field visits—improving system visibility while lowering labor and chemical costs.
Ross Valley Sanitary District used real-time sewer monitoring to track inflow and infiltration (I&I), improve emergency response and shift to data-driven maintenance—reducing overflow risk and extending the life of aging infrastructure.
Charlotte Water implemented real-time monitoring and risk-based sensor placement to proactively manage high-risk areas—cutting SSOs by nearly 70%, preventing dozens of overflow events annually and improving maintenance efficiency.
