The award is part of Anglian Water’s strategy to shift from a time-based reactive maintenance regime to a condition-based, proactive maintenance approach.
WD News: Samotics has been awarded a five-year contract by Anglian Water to help it deliver an extensive proactive maintenance program and meet 2030 Net Zero targets.
There were two different Condition-Based Monitoring (CBM) technologies required: ESA and vibration. ESA is for its fleet of submerged assets, whose location makes it hard to acquire high-quality, high-frequency data. Because the electrical data can be captured remotely in the motor control centre, there is no need to install sensors on or even near the equipment.
Alex Bailey, Strategy Manager for Water Supply at Anglian Water said: “The ESA technology is backed by strong analytics and robust alerting functionality, which allow us to remotely monitor and improve the health and energy-efficiency of our critical submerged assets.”
Anglian Water is focussing on optimising its clean water and water recycling networks with the support of these CBM technologies. Samotics will use a range of tools to deliver this result, including its SAM4 Health’s automated clogging detection feature, which pinpoints early signs of clogging to prevent pollution incidents and damage to pumps.
Jasper Hoogeweegen, CEO at Samotics said: “By unlocking the full spectrum of asset health and performance data, organisations implementing ESA are improving their operational resilience and energy efficiency in tandem.”
