Q: How much of the data available to a water utility is actively used?
A: An estimated 10%
Q: How much of the data available to a water utility is actively used?
A: An estimated 1%
Q: How much of the data available to a water utility is actively used?
A: Very few water utilities can draw on data
Q: How is a DMA created?
A: By closing valves within the distribution pipe network to create a zone and installing flowmeters where valves are left open to register the volume of water supplied and removed from the DMA
Q: How is a DMA created?
A: By leaving open a few valves within the distribution pipe network and installing consumer meters to register water supplied to the DMA
Q: How is a DMA created?
A: By closing valves within the distribution pipe network and installing flowmeters to register water supplied to the DMA
Q: What is unique about the algorithm used to manage pressure with DDD?
A: It is self-learning
Q: What is unique about the algorithm used to manage pressure with DDD?
A: It determines the pressure setpoint
Q: What is unique about the algorithm used to manage pressure with DDD?
A: It is in the cloud
Q: What can the Water Balance analytics quickly show you?
A: Which zones have a higher NRW
Q: What can the Water Balance analytics quickly show you?
A: The pressure differential at two points you wish to compare
Q: What can the Water Balance analytics quickly show you?
A: How much each consumer is billed for water
Q: What happens with the control valve if network pressure gets too low?
A: The control valve will open to maintain the minimum network pressure
Q: What happens with the control valve if network pressure gets too low?
A: The control valve will close, stopping water from entering the network
Q: What happens with the control valve if network pressure gets too low?
A: The control valve does not respond to network pressure
Q: What must zones be equipped with in order to achieve a fixed constant pressure setpoint at the discharge?
A: A booster pump or pressure-reducing valve
Q: What must zones be equipped with in order to achieve a fixed constant pressure setpoint at the discharge?
A: An open valve or a pressure gauge
Q: What must zones be equipped with in order to achieve a fixed constant pressure setpoint at the discharge?
A: A flowmeter
