City Stormwater Pump Station Radar Level Measurement

When a California desert community needed reliable level measurement of their problematic stormwater lift station, they turned to Flowline. Located at the base of a steep residential canyon, the station receives typical run off from the surrounding neighborhood. But a few weeks a year, big rains fill the streets with fast moving water that races down to the station, generating significant turbulence and fast rising levels. During which, a prior ultrasonic level sensor would become intermittent, their SCADA would alarm and a service truck would be dispatched. The maintenance manager said this is a nuisance and we need reliable level measurement. For this reason, Flowline suggested our LR30 radar sensor that’s unaffected by turbulent, fast rising levels in lift stations. The radar sensor provides reliable level data to the SCADA, which monitors the station and controls the pumps. Flowline is reliable level measurement.
