Sewer Flow Monitoring
Temporary and permanent flow monitoring for councils and water authorities, installed by trained crews Australia wide.
EDS provides comprehensive sewer flow monitoring to help councils and water authorities manage their wastewater infrastructure efficiently and effectively. With more than three decades of experience, we pair industry-leading technology with hands-on support to deliver accurate, reliable data for informed decisions.
Our crews are highly trained installation engineers, available Australia wide, who deliver results that are both safe and accurate. And unlike other providers, EDS gives you full access to the data.
Why choose EDS
What is included
Applications
- Sewer model calibration to support long-term planning
- Identifying sources of inflow and infiltration to reduce treatment costs
- Capacity assessment for future infrastructure expansion
- Compliance with environmental regulations
- Early detection of blockages and potential system failures
Results from the field
Twenty short term flow meters and on-site rain gauges showed three subcatchments carried 65% of the I&I. Capital went into relining and inflow reduction instead, and peak wet weather flows fell 35% within two years.
Sewer monitoring across the Wulguru and Pallarenda catchments, to inform the council's infrastructure planning and management.
How a program runs
From the first call to data you can act on.
- 01
Scope and site selection
Agree what the data has to answer, then choose sites by their hydraulics, not their convenience.
- 02
Install and commission
Trained EDS crews install intrinsically safe instruments, Australia wide, and check every site before it goes live.
- 03
Monitor and validate
Readings arrive over 4G into FlowSense, with continuous QA/QC and alarms when something changes.
- 04
Report and recommend
Validated data and a report that shows where the problems are and what to fix first, or a feed into your model by API.
Try it
What the flow meter sees in a storm.
Send a storm through a model catchment and watch the hydrograph respond. The gap between measured flow and the dry weather pattern is inflow and infiltration: water that should never have reached the sewer.
An illustrative model of a 600 mm sewer, not live data. Flow is wetted area multiplied by velocity, the way an area-velocity flow meter measures it.
