Whatever your application, understanding and managing

water conditions is vital to your success, whether it’s for

aquaculture, drinking water, port operations or public safety.

PENTAIR, YOUR PARTNER IN A CHANGING WORLDPentair Environmental Systems offers solutions and expertise to monitor and understand your operating conditions. Our resources and experience enable us to better understand risks that may threaten your operations.

OUR EXPERTISE RUNS DEEPPentair Environmental Systems is the monitoring expert in challenging environments —our experience runs deep! We have access to a network of complimentary resources within the Pentair family of companies, to provide you with the best solution to your monitoring challenges.

• Expertise and resources from a multitude of technology sectors including pumping, valve and control, filtration, water treatment and aquatic ecosystems

• Extensive product line and supplier access • Complete solutions for easier project planning• Technicians and engineers available for all levels of technical support

MARINE ELECTRONIC HIGHWAYIndonesiaThe Strait of Malacca is the shortest route between the Indian Ocean and the South China Sea, and one of the busiest thoroughfares in the world. In an effort to reduce collisions and groundings in the area, Pentair’s monitoring solutions supply real-time wave, tide, current and meteorological information that’s broadcast to all passing traffic and vessel-tracking systems.

PROJECT NEPTUNESingaporeA nationwide network of buoy-mounted monitoring laboratories provides early warning of water, oil and nutrient pollution problems for coastal protection, and harmful water-quality conditions for fisheries production. Coupled with hydrodynamic models, the system forecasts what may eventually occur, aiding in event response operations planning.

CSG POND MONITORNGAustraliaA large network of floating buoys were fitted with varied depth profile sampling, water quality, level and temperature instruments for a number of settlement ponds in the coal seam gas industry. This monitoring solution fulfilled the client’s compliance monitoring requirements and eliminated the safety risks associated with physical sampling.

COASTAL FISHERIESChina Hundreds of thousands of acres of China’s northeastern coastline are used for fisheries production, with the sea cucumber being one of the most valuable industries. Pentair’s buoy and floating platform systems are providing real-time data via a secure Web login to the Fisheries Agency, assisting in fisheries management and event response in the coastal region, especially through winter conditions when the sea freezes.

DESALINATION PLANT MONITORINGAustralia To ensure the concentrated brine from a desalination plant does not adversely affect coastal waters, Pentair has a network of buoy-mounted monitoring systems throughout the bay to measure salinity and oxygen-profile conditions, particularly near the ocean floor, where high-density brine may concentrate. The system can be used to shut down the plant or divert intakes should dangerous conditions occur.

CUSTOMER CHALLENGES. PENTAIR SOLUTIONS.

WHY MONITOR?Marine ecosystems are one of the most fragile on the planet

and the first to suffer when poorly managed. The ocean can be

an early indicator of what can potentially happen to the wider

environment. Real-time, on-site monitoring enables you to detect

and remediate problems before damage occurs.

• Gain a better understanding of natural seasonal, daily and

event variations

• Detect potential problems early on

• Model and forecast the movement and magnitude of the problem

PROBLEMS THAT CAN BE IDENTIFIED:• Potential fish losses from lack of oxygen • Excessive nutrients driving algal blooms • Oil spills or other toxic chemicals • Weather and ocean currents that

transport problems • Sea conditions that increase accident

risks or navigation hazards

MEASURE TO PROTECTAlmost any water condition can be monitored in real time with the right combination of Pentair solutions.

CONTINUOUS MONITORING VS. SPOT SAMPLING

CONTINUOUS MONITORING CAN REVEAL TRENDS AND EVENTS THAT SPOT SAMPLING FAILS TO CAPTURE.

Same event, continuous samples

Daily spot sampling

Ecosystems are dynamic and continually changing. Sampling plans that use spot-check methods run the risk of missing long-term trends and short-term events that can be detected only by continuous monitoring.

Instruments deployed in open water quickly get covered in ocean growth.

With Pentair, instruments are securely housed in the buoy.

GREATER ACCURACY LESS MAINTENANCE LONGER DEPLOYMENTWith abundant nutrients and light, coastal waters provide a rich environment for growth. Instruments deployed in the open water rapidly foul from algae, barnacles and corals, regardless of the protection used.

MULTI-DEPTH SAMPLING SYSTEMAt Pentair, we have developed an innovative multi-depth sampling system that eliminates moisture and light, resulting in significantly longer periods between maintenance. A sample is rapidly analyzed and returned, with the instrument drained between measurements and housed inside the buoy.

OPEN WATER VS. MULTI-DEPTH SAMPLINGThe same instrument for chlorophyll a installed inside a Pentair sampling system provides better measurements for a longer time period.

Side-by-side comparison data shows the improvement in the sampling system over instruments directly deployed in open water. Along with the benefit of better measurements for a longer period of time, the multi-depth sampling system offers:

• A more secure location – All valuable assets are housed inside the buoy.

• Simpler maintenance – No need for divers; equipment can be serviced and maintained from the surface.

• Greater precision – Use the same instrument to gather more precise comparisons between various depths.

• Easy updates – Replace with new instruments with minimal changes.

FLEXIBLE DEPLOYMENTWe can tailor a solution for your specific needs. For full system design and specifications, consult Pentair Environmental Systems engineering services.

MOUNTING OPTIONSChoose from four standard designs:• Cabinets for integration into any

fixed-position system (hut, jetty, pier, channel marker)

• Lake and pond square platform • Lake and pond buoy • Coastal buoy

COMMUNICATION OPTIONSDepending on signal coverage and integration requirements, the following communication methods are available: • Cellular (for near shore) • Radio (for near shore) • Automatic Identification System

(AIS) transceiver utilizing the AtoN (Aids to Navigation) subset for broadcasting to Vessel Traffic Services (VTS) and passing vessels

• Satellite

Good initial agreement Open-water instrument problems arise after 30 days

Open-water instrument completely fails at 55 days

Pentair sampling system still accurately recording after 90 days

SECURE, REAL-TIME DATA ACCESSAccess data via dedicated control centers, or via the secure ENVAULT hosted solution.

Software tools include:• Automatic QA/QC processing• Alarm notification (email/SMS)• Integration with VTS (Vessel Traffic Services) • Real-time hydrodynamic modeling systems

Consult Pentair for system design.

Having data available via the password-protected ENVAULT enabled us to view the data in a real-time format from any PC with an Internet connection, any time of the day. This greatly improved our assessment of the impacts from the dredging.
