Smart Strainer Differential Pressure Monitoring

Smart Strainers free your team to focus on other critical tasks!

Proactive-Alerts-with-Smart-Duplex-Strainers-1366x768

Proactive Alerts with Duplex Strainers When the differential pressure monitored across the strainer screen exceeds the pre-configured threshold, an alert is triggered that the basket needs flushing, enabling planned maintenance.

Automated-Maintenance-with-Smart-Wye-Strainers-1366x768

Automated Maintenance with Wye Strainers When the differential pressure monitored across the strainer screen exceeds the pre-configured threshold, an alert is triggered with notification to follow that the basket has been automatically flushed, reducing maintenance labor and time.

How Smart & Connected Technology Works

GR-1-Smart Strainer 2_How-it-Works-1366x768

Pressure sensors come pre-installed on Duplex and Wye strainers (shown with connected sensor cables to inlet and outlet ports of a Wye strainer).

GR-2-Smart Strainer 2_How-it-Works-1366x768

Purchase of an add-on Connection Kit enables data to be collected from Duplex and Wye strainers and transmitted to your connection platform (shown with optional motorized ball valve for Wye strainers).

GR-3-Smart Strainer 2_How-it-Works-1366x768

Setup of the Sensor Control Monitor supports pressure sensor technology through inlet and outlet measurements and specified basket fill levels on Duplex and Wye strainers.

GR-4-Smart Strainer 2_How-it-Works-1366x768

An alert is sent when the differential pressure across the Duplex or Wye strainer screen exceeds pre-configured thresholds, indicating that flushing of the basket will be needed.

GR-5-Smart Strainer 2_How-it-Works-1366x768

On Wye strainers, the optional motorized ball valve automatically opens to flush the basket into a pre-piped drain when the differential pressure across the screen exceeds the pre-configured threshold.

GR-6-Smart Strainer 2_How-it-Works-1366x768

On Wye strainers, alerts are sent when the basket is nearing fill capacity, and notification is sent when the basket has been automatically flushed!

Connects to Centralized Platforms for Real-Time Notifications

Choose the Connection Kit that's right for you. Alerts you can count on are just a few easy steps away via a wired connection to your BAS/BMS. Or, a Wi-Fi connection to Nexa, the water management platform from Watts.

Building Management

Setup is easy!

Install your strainer and find your Connection Kit

Purchase and wire your Connection Kit to activate the differential pressure monitoring technology and optional auto flush feature.

Configure the settings on the Sensor Control Monitor using the Setup Wizard and connect to your BAS/BMS or Nexa and to receive alerts about pressure drops, basket capacity, and strainer screen cleaning.
