Context

A new regulation will force massive and systematic monitoring of water networks to control leaks or harmful chemical elements.
This requires the installation of a dense network of sensors connected everywhere, even at remote locations of the electrical network.

Technology

Autonomous, durable and efficient pico turbine (patented)

Power 2-10 Watt

Customised production according to flow rate and need

Advantages

Renewable energy

Long life span (20 years)

Simple and robust

Zero maintenance

No by-pass system for accidental overflow

Protected against theft and shock

Compatible with any system of existing pipes

Compatible with corrosive environments

State of progress

Demonstrator produced in the laboratory.
Functional and energy efficiency tests carried out
Leakage tests and underwater testing in progress

Applications

Power sensors and network monitoring systems adapted to high frequency data collection

Flow or pressure, chemical analysis, or valve control.

Industry sectors : drinking and rain water supply, industrial fluids, hydraulic circuits
