Water quality monitoring
LG Sonic Monitoring Buoy is a powerful combination of real-time water quality monitoring and user-friendly cloud software that stores, and analyses received water quality data.
The system represents a cost-effective monitoring solution and an early warning system for algal blooms in lakes and water reservoirs.
Monitoring Buoy offers you
- A cost-effective monitoring solution
- Online access to real-time water quality data
- Operates autonomous with minimal maintenance
- Easily upgradable to LG Sonic ultrasound algae treatment
The system is easily deployable and anchored in the lake or reservoir. It uses solar panels to provide power, all year round in any country.
Our water quality sensors are equipped with a wiper mechanism for automatic cleaning of the sensors after each reading, keeping the maintenance to a minimum and the readings accurate.
How it works
The LG Sonic Monitoring Buoy is a low cost solution for environmental monitoring in lakes and reservoirs.
1. Monitor water
Real-time algae and water quality data is collected
2. Receive data
The data is presented in the MPC-View software
3. Predict algae
Algal blooms can be predict 3-10 days ahead
1. Monitor water quality
Monitoring Buoy provides a complete overview of the water quality by collecting the following parameters every 10 minutes:
- Chlorophyll α (green algae)
- Phycocyanin (blue-green algae)
- pH
- Turbidity
- Dissolved Oxygen
- Temperature
Additional sensors sets can be implemented.
2. User-friendly monitoring software
The collected data is delivered in real-time via 3G/4G to the user friendly web-based software MPC-View.
The software allows you to set up specific automatic alarms to inform about changing algae and/or water parameters, or maintenance activities.
3. Predict algal blooms
The algorithm developed in cooperation with research institutes allows you to predict algal blooms 3-10 days in advance.
