Orbit Communications has released a new EverPump wireless tank monitor and pump control system.
Now you can easily remotely monitor the state of a remote water storage device such as a dam, reservoir or tank and control a pump to ensure the water level is maintained.
EverPump wireless water tank monitoring and alarm system has been designed to offer dependable ongoing performance with up to 10km range between units.
EverPump has an optional remote monitor/control unit that displays the current state of the tank and pump at a third location such as the farm house, and enables manual override remotely.
For critical applications an optional GSM alarm dialer is available that enables a text message alert to be sent directly to any mobile phone in the event of an overflow, pump failure, link error etc.
The EverPump wireless tank monitor and pump control system has been designed for low power consumption, making it suitable to be powered by a small solar panel at remote locations.
Both the EverPump wireless pump unit and the remote wireless tank unit have 6 digital inputs and 4 relay outputs available. The EverPump wireless tank monitor and pump control system can be easily modified by Orbit Communications to monitor multiple tanks and control multiple pumps with both local and remote alarms.
All radio communications between the remote pump unit, tank unit and wireless monitor/control unit is continuously monitored to ensure reliable ongoing operation and instant notification if something is not operating correctly.
The EverPump wireless tank monitor and pump control system is designed and manufactured in Australia and is supplied with technical/application support direct from the manufacturer.
