Unlock the Secret to Making Informed Decisions:

Quality Data is Your Key to Success!


Imagine having the power to monitor your wastewater pump station's performance in real time, ensuring early detection of any potential issues before they escalate. Calculate losses during an SSO (Sanitary Sewer Overflow) event by continuously monitoring surcharge levels and utilizing open channel flow formulas for precise measurements.

Maid Labs Technologies' smart pump station offers this invaluable benefit, allowing operators to stay one step ahead and prevent disruptions to the treatment process. By providing instant insights into the system's condition, real-time diagnostics pave the way for proactive maintenance, ensuring optimal operation at all times.

Smart Wastewater Pumping Station Monitoring System

Simply Add What is Missing to a Working Wastewater Pump Station:

  • Volucalc Hybrid CS

    Flow, real-time diagnostic, lower pump run time, cost reduction, increased safety

    Abnormal behaviors are reported before degenerating to catastrophic events with real-time diagnostics using flow and efficiency monitoring.

    Pump run times, maintenance costs, and number and impact of SSO events decreases using our flow-based operating system.

    Volucalc™ Hybrid CS is a constant speed pump flow meter for 1 to 4 pumps with a flow proportional 4-20mA output and TCP/IP MODBUS communication. It uses the most advanced patented volumetric flow algorithm and is patent pending on its real-time volumetric flow algorithm. Its one second resolution data is downloaded to a USB key or MaidMaps SCADA. No software required to produce monthly reports with daily statistics.

    No other instrument generates more information about wastewater lift stations than the Volucalc™ Hybrid CS.

    Volucalc™ Hybrid VS
  • Volucalc™ Hybrid VS

    Volucalc™ Hybrid VS is a variable and constant speed pump flowmeter. For variable speed pumps, it uses the pump curves flow/head/RPM of 1 to 4 pumps, the level and pressure signal and generates a flow proportionnal 4-20mA output. It uses the most advanced patented volumetric flow algorithm for constant speed pumps. Data is downloaded to a USB key or MaidMaps. No software required to produce reports. MaidMaps can activate a remote relay and display readings.

  • FlowMaid

    The FlowMaid is a small monitoring device used to record level, flow, volume and discrete events. It calculates the volume lost in a SSO event using the Manning equation. As an open channel flow meter, the user can select from 11 flow formulas.

    The only requirement is to enter the level of the overflow pipe, its diameter, material and angle. Years of data can be recorded before filling its memory. Every event shows start and end time, duration, average flow and volume lost.

    The relay output can be remotely activated or based on events such as high level. For an optimum operation time on batteries, the relay output can be used to interrupt the power supply of the level sensor or other accessories like a cellular modem.

CONNECT IT TO ANYTHING

  • 4 motor inputs are used for a mix of RPM inputs from VFDs and current clamps. They are used to monitor pump operations, evaluate power consumption and pump speed.

  • Volucalc has an integrated Uninterruptible Power Supply circuitry to keep important equipment like the level sensor and cellular modem powered during power failures. Simply add a rechargeable 12-volt battery.

  • The WattMeter module adds complete electrical analysis for each pump (one module per pump). The data recorded for each phase are Voltage, Current, RMS power (watt), Power factor and Frequency.

  • The digital input can be used to monitor rain, level, check valve operation or any dry contact accessories. The reports will show when, for how long and how many times events occurred or totalized events for pulses.

  • 2 analog inputs are assigned to the level and the force main pressure. Like all analog inputs, they can be set by software to 4-20 mA, 0-5 Volts, 0-10 Volts and even 0-24 Volts.

  • All the unused analog inputs (pumps, level and pressure) can be used to record and report values supplied by other equipment like mag meters and specialized flow meters.

  • 6 digital outputs can be used to generate different alarms and send flow or volume proportional pulses to a sampler or other equipment like a PLC.

  • The flow proportional 4-20 mA output is the simplest way to add high accuracy flow to an existing system. The volumetric flow algorithm of the Volucalc™ is the most accurate of the industry while the variable speed pump algorithm is the only plug-in method of the industry.

  • Over 100 different data elements can be transferred to a PLC or other MODBUS compatible devices through its RS485 (RS485 port is supplied on request) and Ethernet port.

  • The Ethernet port can be used to communicate via cellular modem, WiFi radio or direct wiring to the MaidMaps Web SCADA application, which displays flow, generates graphs, download reports and files, upload configurations and report alarm emails and SMS.

  • The Volucalc generates impressive and complete reports on site. A USB thumb drive can be used to download these reports and SoftMaid™ compatible files and to upload configurations.

  • SoftMaid™ is the most advance wastewater pump station diagnostic software and the perfect mean to analyze high resolution Volucalc™ data.
