24/7 online monitoring of our installations

Drinking water is a sensitive matter and is subjected to strict regulations, especially when it comes to its treatment. Therefor it is essential that the installed water treatment equipment is not only very well maintained, but also continuously monitored to ensure its proper functioning as well as to check the water quality because products are injected.

The concentration of the active products in the water is strictly limited by legislation.

Concentrations of free chlorine are measured as well as the water flow rate and the temperature. All these data are continuously logged and stored for a period of 10 years.

Our customers have the possibility to view and print out these parameters through our online Customer Log in

Below is a graphical presentation of the logged parameters.

Disinfection of the water pipes in a new health care building

There is a growing need for more safety in public water circuits in sectors like health care. These increased safety measures should be affordable, environmentally friendly and should meet the requirements of the more and more stringent legislation for the disinfection of drinking water. In order to be sure that no contamination is present in pipe systems before putting them to use, an intensive rinsing and flushing program is prescribed, using biocides like sodium hypochlorite.
