SpillSens
SpillSens is a low-cost, multi-alarm digital float sensor designed to act as an early warning system for blockages and sewer overflows. ATEX-approved and built to withstand harsh sewer environments, SpillSens uses digital positioning technology to monitor rising levels in the wastewater network. Connected to an advanced data logger with integral telemetry, alert messages are transmitted to a dedicated user portal.
SpillSens is a simple-to-install, robust, and cost-effective solution for long-term level monitoring in wastewater networks.
Application
When installed at a critical height in the chamber, SpillSens uses digital positioning technology to determine whether it is hanging vertically in mid-air or floating in wastewater.
As network levels alter, the sensor’s tilt angle is continuously monitored. If it enters a pre-set range, alert messages are transmitted to the bespoke SpillGuard portal.
SpillSens can be connected to and powered by a variety of FCS data loggers. We recommend IS Log for an intrinsically safe, robust, and cost-effective solution.
IS Log transmits data through an integral modem with advanced cellular options available. IS Log is also supplied with an external antenna connection that enables the use of a range of specialist antennas to ensure reliable communication on installations with low signal levels.
Key Features and Benefits
- Three levels of alert: green, amber, and red; based on the angle of the sensor:
- Green – verticle orientation, network operating as expected
- Amber – movement in orientation, high alert triggered
- Red – sensor movement >100o, high/high alert triggered
- Intrinsically safe: certified for use in Zone 0 hazardous areas
- No moving components: designed to have no moving parts, unlike traditional steel ball and micro-switch state sensors
- Robust design: durable materials not adversely affected by long-term exposure to wastewater environments
- Cable length options: available with 1m, 2m, or 3m cable lengths
Compatibility: works in conjunction with IS Log and various other FCS data loggers - Online data viewing: via SpillGuard, providing Map View and a variety of valuable features
