Octave all-in-one solution enables company to
launch in less than five months a ground-breaking water quality
analyzer for accurate, real-time information
Sierra Wireless (NASDAQ:SWIR) (TSX:SW), a world leading IoT
solutions provider, today announced that Aquamonitrix® is using
Sierra Wireless Octave™, the all-in one edge-to-cloud solution for
connecting industrial assets to the cloud, to enable its
ground-breaking water quality analyzer to provide accurate,
real-time information on nitrate and nitrite levels in fresh and
effluent water.
Octave Provides Real-Time Continuous Information, Speeds
Time-to-Market, and Reduces Costs Working in conjunction with
Sierra Wireless and Sierra Wireless’ partner Linkwave Technologies,
Aquamonitrix Ltd – backed by the resources of its parent company
T.E. Laboratories (TelLab) - has been able to use Octave to develop
a new remote monitoring IoT application that enables water managers
to react immediately to nitrate-related pollution events, helping
them to avoid fines, environmental damage, and reputation loss. The
application also allows for near-continuous monitoring, so that
episodic pollution events need no longer go undetected. Users can
gather sufficient data to better model and understand
nitrate/nitrite sources and treatment dynamics, enabling them to
arrive at evidence-based, optimized solutions.
“Octave’s innovative technology helps us capture critical data
on water quality every few seconds. By getting up-to-date
information on water quality, management can make data-driven
decisions and ensure regulatory compliance,” said Alan Staunton,
New Product Development Lead, Aquamonitrix. “Moreover, Octave’s
efficient power consumption allows longer deployment periods,
diminishing maintenance needs, and provides an integrated
monitoring solution that is cost-effective.”
By using Octave, engineers at Aquamonitrix did not have to build
any IoT infrastructure from scratch and were able to launch the
remote monitoring IoT application in less than five months at a
predictable cost.
“Being a complete solution, Octave provides not just the edge
devices that extract data from the Aquamonitrix sensors, but also
cellular connectivity and cloud actions that securely transmit
sensor data over low power cellular networks to Aquamonitrix cloud
applications,” said Olivier Pauzet, Vice President Product &
IoT Solutions, Sierra Wireless.
“Octave enables secured connections from edge devices to any
cloud provider or cloud-based application such as Azure Power BI.
It also allows companies to simplify their development and de-risk
their deployment so that they can focus on their data and creating
innovative IoT applications,” said Andrew Newton, CEO, Linkwave
Technologies.
Remote Monitoring IoT Application Delivers the Benefits of
Real-Time Data Transmission to Users Aquamonitrix makes access
to real-time information on nitrate and nitrite in water systems
practical and affordable. Unlike existing real-time analyzers, the
Aquamonitrix solution incorporates a separation step that allows it
to analyze ‘dirty’ or cloudy real-world samples, without any loss
of accuracy or performance. Moreover, because the sensor sits
outside the water, it does not succumb to biofouling and is
compact, lite-weight and portable. Its total lifetime costs are
also low since no specialized technical skills are required to set
it up, operate it or service it.
Aquamonitrix has so far been deployed in applications that
include catchment management, raw water abstraction monitoring,
wastewater treatment optimization, and effluent monitoring.
