Project Overview
EPMAPA (Empresa Pública Municipal de Agua Potable y Alcantarillado de Santo Domingo) are responsible for the provision of water and waste water in Santo Domingo. Their mission is to contribute to the wellbeing of the Santo Domingo district, through the provision of quality services for drinking water and sewage now and for future generations.
Lack of control in the water distribution networks had created a need to monitor pipeline pressures as well as levels in the main tanks. A solution to better control the distribution of potable water throughout the city was required. A product to measure, record and send pressure and level data from remote locations was required. A pilot was scheme was tested which returned 100% results thus the Cello data logger was deployed for the entire project.
