Reliable Water Level Monitoring as a Complete Solution

Reliable water level monitoring is essential for flood protection, water management processes, and the safe operation of technical infrastructure. Our solution combines precise sensor technology, intelligent data loggers, and modern remote communication into one integrated system.

Von der einzelnen Messstelle bis zur vernetzten Infrastruktur erhalten Betreiber eine robuste und einfach skalierbare Lösung zur kontinuierlichen Überwachung von Flüssen, Kanälen, Rückhaltebecken und Industrieanlagen.

Level measurement sensors

Depending on the application, radar sensors (Radarcont® RP4SR), ultrasonic sensors (Sonicont® USP4), or hydrostatic level sensors (Hydrocont® HP4) are used. The sensors measure water levels precisely and reliably—even under difficult environmental conditions such as:

  • Flooding
  • Contaminants
  • Temperature fluctuations
  • Moisture
  • Outdoor installations

Data logger for local data collection

The DLF4 and Hydrolog® HLF4 data loggers handle:

  • the continuous collection of sensor data,
  • local storage,
  • preprocessing,
  • limit value monitoring,
  • as well as secure data transmission.

This ensures that the measuring station remains operational even during temporary communication outages.

Data transmission

Depending on the infrastructure, communication takes place via:

  • Mobile communications
  • Ethernet
  • LoRaWAN
  • or other industrial communication channels.

Central Web Portal

All measurement data is displayed and analyzed centrally in the ACS web portal.

Features of the ACS portal:

  • Live data display
  • Historical Trend Analyses
  • Alarms
  • Reporting
  • User Management
  • Location overviews for multiple measurement points

Benefits of our complete solution

  • Accurate and reliable measurement data: Our sensors continuously monitor water levels and provide stable readings even under challenging environmental conditions.
  • Real-time remote monitoring: All measurement data is automatically transmitted and displayed centrally on the web portal.
  • Easy integration: Existing measurement points and systems can be easily expanded or integrated.
  • Rapid alerts: Exceedances of threshold values can be automatically detected and reported via email or text message.
  • Scalable infrastructure: The system can be flexibly expanded from individual measurement points to large-scale measurement networks.

Redundant level measurement for maximum reliability

For critical applications, a single measuring point is often insufficient. That is why the ACS solution can be configured as a fully redundant measuring system.

Two independent sensors are installed in parallel at the same measurement point. Both sensors continuously transmit measurement data to the data logger.

The data logger handles the following:

  • the simultaneous reception of both sensor signals,
  • the automatic validity check,
  • a comparison of the measured values,
  • the detection of deviations,
  • as well as reporting any sensor errors.

This ensures that level measurement remains available even in the event of a sensor failure.

This significantly enhances operational reliability and data availability, particularly in flood protection and critical infrastructure.

Redundancy You Can Trust

-> Dual-sensor system for maximum reliability

-> Autonomous operation for up to 10 years

-> Real-time alerts via app, SMS, or email

How Does It Work?

Our DLF4 and HLF4 data loggers automatically transmit measurements to the ACS Web Portal for analysis, visualization, and alerting. Sensors can be based on ultrasonic (USP4), radar (RP4), or hydrostatic (HP4) technology.

Maximum security for your level data

This patented solution is a game changer, particularly in critical sectors such as flood prevention, groundwater monitoring, and industrial tank level management. Redundant sensing minimizes the risk of failure, improves data quality, and enables predictive maintenance planning.
Auch in schwer zugänglichen Regionen ermöglicht das System eine präzise und sichere Datenerfassung – autark und bis zu zehn Jahre wartungsarm.

Visualize current measurement data online – easily and effectively

You have the option of displaying the current values from your measuring point(s) online in a dynamic diagram. These diagrams can be easily embedded on your website, intranet, or a specially set up platform. The simple embedding process requires only a few steps from your IT department and creates real added value, as interested parties can conveniently access the current measurement data and obtain information at any time.
