  1. Partnerships through the Water Innovation Network A “WIN, WIN, WIN” Brian M Back BEng(Hons) CEng FIET MIoD Managing Director

  2. Some of the Woes of the Modern Water Company (Dirty Water) Compliance with the Revised Bathing Waters Directive Corporate Manslaughter Legislation – Reducing Risk to Staff Corporate & Social Responsibility:- Business Continuity Planning Caring for the Environment EMS - (ISO14001) Politically Motivated Economic Targets

  3. Bathing Water Directive Compliance Requires Increased Measurement & Reporting Proactive Reduction in Pollution Incidents

  4. Helping to Reduce Risk to Staff Reducing and Eliminating Confined Space Entry

  5. Corporate & Social Responsibility Improved Business Continuity Planning Reducing Whole of Life Costs Caring for the Environment Reducing Compensation Payments --------- Provide Tools for Proactive Pollution Mitigation

  6. Meeting the Increased Measurement Challenges Cellular Networks never designed to work underground Network Coverage Vary by the Minute Many Locations Without Coverage Safety - Precludes Modifying Manhole Covers Assess Restrictions – Confined Space Entry for Installation Private Wire & PSTN Being Replaced with Fibre Expensive to Install and Operate

  7. Business Continuity G2..G3..G4...G5? G2 is Becoming Obsolete, G3? Network Outages Network Maintenance Cyber Attacks of DOS attacks Internet Crashing 3rd Party Hosts Failing Interposing Server Failure

  8. Business Continuity – Communications (cont) M2M a Failed Business Model Revenue Comes from People Streaming, Gaming, Downloads etc.. Operator Mergers Masts Removed Masts Shared Lack of SLAs Reality is the M2M is of Little Interest to Mobile Operators

  9. “The Innovation Begins Here and Never Stops”

  10. The Low Cost BDT Blocked Sewer Detection Transducer Transmitter Cable Adjustment Dielectric Probe

  11. Another Example of Low Cost Technology the FDT Cable Adjustment Transmitter Accelerometer Probe

  12. Best of Both Worlds The Hybrid = Ultrasonic + BDT or FDT Event Duration is controlled by BDT – Level as 4-20mA Signal into Telemetry

  13. How We Achieve Reliable Communications

  14. Ultimate Caring for the Environment This is what Real Time Data Can Deliver!

  15. Another Example of Environmental Protection

  16. Summary: Improved Measurement & Delivery of Data Ability to Install Almost Anywhere Security of Independence from Mobile Networks Eliminated Confined Space Entry Simple Integrated – Uses Existing Telemetry Reduced Cost: Longer Battery Life Simple to Install – No Field Programming Simple to Maintain Proactive Incident Mitigation DAM

  17. Other Areas of Co-operation: Industrial Partners with KTP Programme Sheffield University Access to our R&D Facilities Developing Field Service Tools Developing Confined Space Access Elimination Brackets
