An intuitive tool for operating and managing your Water Supply Network

2. An intuitive tool for operating and managing your Water Supply Network • Better overview and improved operation • By using live SCADA data the AQUIS model is transformed from a planning tool to a decision making tool, integrated in your day-to-day operations – with instant and clearly identified benefits and economic advantages. • Like GPS automobile navigation, AQUIS Operation will advise you of problems in the network, no matter which turn you take.

3. How does it work? • The operator does not require any in-depth knowledge of AQUIS. By scrolling back and forth on a simple button interface he can obtain the information he need such as pressure, flow and quality for any given point in time - in the past or in the future. • The AQUIS model is fed with live information from the SCADA system as well as forecast information about weather conditions. This enables the model to predict future consumption even during periods of quickly changing or extreme weather conditions. • Different variables, such as supply pressure, age of the water, amount of chemicals in the water or flow can be displayed. Effects of interventions, such as opening or closing of valves can be assessed by simulations, which reveal disturbances in consumer supply.
