Flovac Standardize on MultiSmart for their Environmentally Friendly Vacuum Sewerage Pumping Stations

Vacuum sewerage systems have proven themselves with many wastewater utilities and EPAs around the world as a cost-effective and environmentally-friendly solution to wastewater collection. Flovac have standardized on the MultiSmart pump station manager for control and monitoring of their pump stations.

Brisbane, Australia (PRWEB) February 27, 2009 -- Flovac (www.flovac.com) are an engineering house that designs, constructs and operates vacuum sewerage systems. These systems are used in areas difficult to sewer using traditional technologies. Ideally suited for areas with high water table, rocky sites or flat ground, the system has proven to be extremely economical in such topography.

Eliminating infiltration and exfiltration, vacuum sewerage is highly regarded by many EPAs around the world and has proven to be the sewerage technology with the lowest carbon footprint. This is the reason why it is the naturally preferred choice of sewerage in high profile sustainable projects like Masdar in the UAE.

John Radinoff, Managing Director of Flovac, added: "Whilst Flovac's system is extremely simple and user friendly, Flovac needed to find a user-friendly control system for its pump station, while still meeting the stringent requirements of major water authorities. Unlike traditional PLC's which required specialist programming, the use of the Multismart Pump Station Manager (http://www.multitrode.com/pump-station-manager) has meant that operators onsite could be easily trained to alter settings on MultiSmart's intuitive display."

Steve Carson, Group Marketing Manager for MultiTrode (www.multitrode.com), added: "Flovac have technology which works extremely well in demanding situations. They have done a great job of providing a more reliable and sustainable solution and we are very pleased that they have chosen MultiSmart for this demanding application."
