IoT Solutions
Water Management affects multiple sectors: agriculture, farming, industry, services, cities… We can monitor drinking water, detect and control realtime leakages in rivers and seas, track pressure variations along pipes and check water quality in fishfarms, swimming pools or aquariums.
Population growth and climate change are the main challenges for water management.
Water demand is expected to increase up to 30% by 2050, increasing 1% per year.
What water quality projects look for…
Increases
Reduces
Sound interesting… And which are the main applications of this technology?
Fish farming
Monitoring dissolved oxygen, pH levels or salinity is essential to achieve optimal health and growth.
Management
Controlling water consumption/metering, distribution, irrigation, leak detection, storage (tanks, reservoirs, etc.) bathing water quality and detecting bacterial presence.
Industrial
Prevention of chemical wastewater pollution, monitoring seawater desalination, hydroponics and water quality in ports.
Emergencies
Flood prevention, chemical leakage monitoring and water quality control after natural disasters.
Aquarium Management
Ensure animal welfare by monitoring parameters such as temperature, pH, Electroconductivity or Dissolved Oxygen
in real time.
Smart Water is designed to detect the most relevant water quality parameters such as dissolved oxygen, oxidation-reduction potential, pH, conductivity and temperature.
Different models to comply with any application: Xtreme, Pro and Ions.
High accuracy sensors from prestigious manufacturers such as Aqualabo
Sensors can be placed in a buoy (for seas and lakes)
Real-time information
Interoperability: work with most relevant wireless technologies
LPWAN and cellular communication protocol for isolated locations
Compatible with any Cloud platform
Easy installation, solar powered and long battery life

Smart Water Xtreme
Smart Water Xtreme | Plug&Sense! is an improvement of our Water line with a new selection of high-end professional sensors.
All sensor probes incorporate an integrated temperature sensor to compensate measurements. This process is called “integrated temperature compensation”.
Robust sensor probes: PVC and stainless steel. 5-6 bar pressure resistance.
A variety of mounting accessories for each sensor are available to be placed in pipes or tanks. Protective wildlife accessories are also available.
Available Sensors:
• Optical dissolved oxygen and temperature (OPTOD)
• Titanium optical dissolved oxygen and temperature(OPTOD)
• pH, ORP and temperature (PHEHT)
• Conductivity, salinity and temperature (C4E)
• Inductive conductivity, salinity and temperature (CTZN)
• Turbidity and temperature (NTU)
• Suspended solids, turbidity, sludge blanket and temperature (MES5)
• COD, BOD, TOC, SAC254 and temperature StacSense, 2 mm path
• COD, BOD, TOC, SAC254 and temperature StacSense, 50 mm pathRadar level
• VEGAPULS C21
• Temperature, Humidity and Pressure
• Luminosity (Luxes accuracy)
• Ultrasound (outdoor IP67)
Smart Water PRO
Smart Water | Plug&sense! allows remote monitoring of the most relevant parameters related to water quality.
Available Sensors:
• pH
• Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP)
• Dissolved Oxygen (DO)
• Conductivity
• Temperature
• Calibration Kits for the sensor probes available
Smart Water Ions
Smart Water Ions | Plug&Sense! specializes in measuring ions concentration enabling water quality control, only recommended for freshwater.
Available Sensors:
• Ammonium (NH4+)
• Bromide (Br–)
• Calcium (Ca2+)
• Chloride (Cl–)
• Cupric (Cu2+)
• Fluoride (F–)
• Iodide (I–)
• Lithium (Li+)
• Magnesium (Mg2+)
• Nitrate (NO3–)
Sensors maintenance
Optical and anti-fouling systems require less maintenance.
Fouling effect occurs when there is organic materials in the water. It creates a “bio-film” which adheres to the probes and provokes wrong measurements → quality decreases.
