The Forsyth County, Georgia, Department of Water and Sewer deployed the AMERICAN Flow Control SEMPER® Remote Pressure Monitor (RPM) more than a year ago and has seen numerous advantages. But the AFC SEMPER’s ability to move from one system asset to another, “Lift and Shift,” is among the greatest.

In March 2021, the city of Fairfield, California’s Water Division was tasked with commissioning a new 36-inch Cross Town Transmission Line (CTTL). The CTTL will enhance the already robust distribution system and better serve the water needs of the Water Division’s 33,000 customers. This new CTTL, however, will change the dynamics of the city’s current distribution system.

By using the AFC SEMPER RPM, the Lowcountry Regional Water System has been able to resolve low pressure complaints for an industrial user, monitor system-wide pressure and discover water hammer issues – all in about six months. “I can only imagine what we’ll find when we move the units around more and expand its usage,” said Engineer Kari Foy.

For any water system, water hammer, also known as pressure transients, pose significant threats, from leaky joints to pipes that burst. The damages resulting from these events can be costly to repair and leave customers without water. The Topsfield Water Department in Topsfield, Massachusetts, has found an answer.
