Digital network visualisation as a symbol of intelligent sensor technology and data analysis in rainwater management

Intelligent sensor technology for rainwater management

Digital solutions from RX-WATERTEC provide transparency about the condition of drainage, storage and infiltration systems, support the assessment of potential weather risks and enable proactive management. Sensors collect relevant operating data, which is then classified by the higher-level HYDRX system, evaluated using AI and used to provide clear recommendations for safe and proactive operation. The digital solutions are designed as a comprehensive offering – from installation and setup to monitoring and service, tailored to the respective needs.

Modular monitoring solutions from RX-WATERTEC

RX-WATERTEC offers modular monitoring systems for monitoring various elements in rainwater management – from channels to storage tanks to infiltration units. The solutions can be combined as required and adapted to project-specific requirements.

The DrainageGuard records the utilisation and performance of drainage channels. Measurements of fill level and flow rate provide transparency regarding the operating status and enable early detection of blockages or malfunctions. Deviations between the target and actual status can be evaluated in a comprehensible manner. This helps to reduce the risk of flooding, make maintenance measures more predictable and minimise unplanned interventions.

Benefits at a glance:

Continuous monitoring of fill level and flow rate
Early detection of blockages and obstructions
Reducing flood risks
Support for predictive maintenance
On-site sensors record relevant conditions
Central online overview with real-time display of statuses
Notification in case of anomalies or critical conditions
Reports for evaluation and documentation

RX WATETEC StorageGuard/InfiltrationGuard for measuring cistern levels or monitoring infiltration systems

The StorageGuard continuously measures the fill level of rainwater storage tanks. The measured values are used to determine the volume, remaining capacity and defined threshold values. In the event of overfilling or dry running, the system provides notifications and makes critical operating conditions transparent. This supports the predictable management of storage systems, increases operational safety and facilitates preparation for heavy rainfall events.

Benefits at a glance:

Continuous monitoring of the fill level
Transparent display of the available water quantity
Early detection of malfunctions
On-site sensors record relevant conditions
Central online overview with real-time display of statuses
Display of events and anomalies
Clear reports for evaluation and documentation

The InfiltrationGuard records the fill level in the inspection chamber of the rainwater storage tanks. Drainage times and infiltration rates are derived from the measured values. Deviations, such as blockages or a decrease in seepage capacity, are reported automatically.
The processed data supports predictable maintenance, helps to prevent overflow and increases the operational reliability of infiltration systems.

Benefits at a glance:

On-site sensors continuously monitor backwater level and infiltration performance
Detects blockages at an early stage
Warning of impending overflow and decreasing infiltration capacity
Central online overview with real-time display of statuses
Display of events and anomalies
Clear reports for evaluation and documentation

The VUE.RX dashboard links all measurement points, identifies correlations and provides notifications – from evaluations and analyses to trends and forecasts. The processed information supports early assessment of plant operation and helps to prepare decisions for operation and maintenance in advance.

Data is transmitted via LoRaWAN or NB-IoT. A suitable installation point and the provision of relevant inventory documents are required for the use of the sensor technology. Beyond that, no further project-related requirements are usually necessary. The sensors operate independently with a powerful battery. Data can be easily exported for connection to external data platforms or building management systems.
