Wireless Radios for Water and Wastewater Applications

Industrial wireless | Wells, tanks, pump stations, reservoirs, and remote sites

✓ What problem are we solving?

Water and wastewater systems depend on remote equipment that may be difficult or expensive to cable. Pump status, tank levels, flow rates, gates, reservoirs, and intrusion alarms all need reliable communication.

Britton Electronics & Automation designs wireless communication around the utility application, site conditions, data requirements, and long-term support needs.

Remote site connectivity

Wireless links can connect wells, tanks, pump stations, and other distributed assets.

Lower installation disruption

Wireless can avoid trenching or cable runs where they are impractical.

Better operational awareness

Remote data supports control, alarming, and SCADA visibility.

✓ What technology supports the solution?

ESTeem industrial wireless radios can support water and wastewater monitoring and control when the network is planned around distance, bandwidth, antennas, power, and environment.

Define what data must move between sites.

Evaluate distance, obstructions, antenna locations, and power.

Integrate wireless data into PLC, RTU, or SCADA systems.

✓ How is the solution implemented?

BEA can help evaluate wireless feasibility, install the radio network, and support integration with the control system used by operators and maintenance teams.
