Measuring is knowing
This is common knowledge. In today’s world of
connected devices, the ability to collect the
measured data and transfer it is crucial to
improving the utility’s operations.
Miltel Communications has developed battery
powered RF and Cellular devices for collecting data
from sensors installed in harsh outdoor
environments.

NRW Analysis
DMA – NRW
41.83% Non-Revenue Water
Two week daily consumption
analysis shows consistent
difference (NRW) between bulk
meter and cumulative total of all
subordinate meters.
Conclusion: suspected
distribution system leakage.
NRW Analysis
Daily NRW Chart After Repair
After repair of the leak in
the distribution system,
the DMA still shows nonrevenue water, but at a
much reduced rate
(42% versus 10-12%)

Water Pressure Monitoring System
Solution Functions:
• Wireless remote monitoring of water pressure levels
• 24 data points daily (96 optional)
• Alerts generated upon pressure level change (high/low)
• Alerts (events) reported in real-time
• Distribution of sensors through a District Metering Area
generates data to assist in maximizing water
distribution system efficiency
• DataSense management software includes hierarchical
definition of pressure monitors, DMAs, and GIS
mapping
The pressure sensor is
inserted in any location
along a water pipeline
Sewage Level Monitoring System (runoff alert)
System Features:
• Wireless remote monitoring of sewer levels
• Alerts generated upon sewer level status change
• Multiple level monitoring capability (optional)
• Status data updated daily (or more frequently)
System Components
Cellular Endpoint installed
under manhole cover
Sewer high-level sensor
(optional)
Sewer low-level sensor
• Monitoring restricted areas
• Power outage alert
• Service vehicles or heavy equipment
• Monitoring server rooms
• Pumping station monitoring (not instead of SCADA)
• Generators
Leak Detection*
Solution Functions:
• Acoustic ALC - Active Leakage Control
• Based on correlation algorithms
• High accuracy with minimal false alarms
• Easy sensor installation and deployment
• Utilizing cellular & GPS technology
• Integration with Smart City platform
* 3rd party solution based on Miltel’s’ OEM cellular endpoint
The acoustic leak detection
sensor is attached to any
pipe or fire hydrant at any
location along a the water
distribution network
Miltel provides a simple and cost effective
solution for measuring any sensor, or monitoring
any physical asset.
Device does not require any external power or
internet connection.
The same solution is applicable for many aspects
