Utilising Advanced Pressure Management Technology
Advanced pressure management technology reduces leakage and optimises water supply networks. Water utilities can stabilise system pressure by implementing sophisticated Pressure Reducing Valves (PRVs), minimising the risk of burst pipes and excessive leakage. These technologies enable the automation of pressure adjustments based on real-time demand, effectively reducing stress on the network during peak and off-peak times.
This proactive approach prevents unnecessary water loss and extends the lifespan of critical infrastructure. Water utilities can gain real-time insights into network performance through smart monitoring systems integrated with pressure sensors and control software, enabling more efficient decision-making. When combined with comprehensive pressure-managed area (PMA) design and optimisation, advanced pressure management technology can significantly reduce non-revenue water (NRW) and improve overall network resilience.
Importance of Water Network Pressure Management
Poor water pressure management can result in several challenges that impact both the efficiency and cost of running a water network. Key issues include:
- Reduction of Water Loss: By controlling and stabilising pressure, water utilities can significantly reduce non-revenue water (NRW) caused by background leakage. Excessive pressure often leads to leaks, and optimised pressure settings can minimise these losses, leading to more efficient water use.
- Prevention of Infrastructure Damage: High or fluctuating pressure can cause stress on pipelines and fittings, resulting in cracks, bursts, or corrosion over time. By maintaining optimal pressure levels, water supply networks experience less wear and tear, extending the lifespan of infrastructure and reducing the need for costly repairs or replacements.
- Minimisation of Water Hammer Events: Sudden changes in pressure, known as water hammer or pressure transients, can cause significant damage to pipes and valves. Effective pressure management helps mitigate the occurrence and impact of these events, preventing potential service disruptions and infrastructure failure.
Pressure management is a key strategy for enhancing the reliability, efficiency, and sustainability of water supply networks.
It plays a vital role in reducing water loss, protecting buried pipeline infrastructure, and improving service delivery for water utilities and their customers.
