Pumping Station Monitoring

Retroflo offer a full suite of maintenance packages that range from planned servicing and asset testing, through to a fully managed package that includes remote monitoring of the pumping station, periodic electrical inspection and testing, and emergency call outs.

In response to popular requirements we’ve created the Retroflo Standard, Advanced and Complete maintenance packages, which provide tiered levels of maintenance cover. We can also tailor packages to suit the individual client requirements.

REMOTE MONITORING + RESPONSE

Our dedicated telemetry system provides 24/7 remote monitoring of station conditions, collecting live data of well levels, pump activity and equipment operations from a range of digital and analogue sensors. This means that potential problems, such as spillage and flooding, can be identified before they become critical. In many cases, equipment faults can be reset remotely without the need for site visits.

Our dedicated maintenance teams provide 24/7 coverage, receiving live data and alarms at all times of the day and night. In critical cases, our response teams can be mobilised to attend site, rectify issues and get the station back to normal operating conditions.
