You know our GEOsniff® AUTO BYPASS and its advantages in the field of geothermal monitoring? With our new AUTO BYPASS, which is available now, we go one step further!
We are pleased to present you further scenarios in which the GEOsniff® AUTO BYPASS can show its strenghts to the tes
Increasing efficiency of geothermal probe plants
Large probe fields are subject to natural conditions which have direct influence to the efficiency of geothermal probe plants. Through reliable long-term monitoring in continuous operation, you can react. The GEOsniff® AUTO BYPASS gives support:
- Long-term measurements of temperature flags and the resulting temperature change in the ground water
- Long-term monitoring of the backfill material
- Efficiency of individual probes
- Fast TRT in operation
- Connection to common industry interfaces for building control system (BACnet, Profibus, OPC) or Online Portal
Smart Home
The attractiveness and efficiency renewable energy is rising steadily, so more and more building owners want to integrated the use of geothermal energy. These plants have to planned and monitored in continuous operation. The GEOsniff® AUTO BYPASS makes it possible:
- Measurements of data such as pressure and temperature in geothermal probes
- Long-term monitoring of the backfill material
- Measurement of possible influences from nearby geothermal probe systems, etc.
- Visualization of measurement data via smartphone
- Push notifications for relevant deviations
Fully automatic groundwater monitoring
To measure the groundwater quality permanently, data must be collected according to the hydrological situation. In addition to the ground water level and the temperature you have to identify numerous values. The GEOsniff® AUTO BYPASS has the following features:
- Fully automatic and continuous long-term monitoring of the depth-temperature profile of groundwater
- Creating a high-precision depth-temperature profile
- Measurement of additional data such as groudnwater level, pH, conductivity, oxygen content, temperature
- Online availability of visualized data
- Self-sufficient operation via battery and photovoltaic system, low power consumption
Monitoring of aquifers
The use and protection of groundwater requires constant monitoring of the aquifer. Besides the temperature, the flow directions are important information in the aquifer. A grid of temperature depth profiles can depict the flow directions and velocities in the different groundwater levels. A grid of groundwater monitoring wells, which are equipped with the GEOsniff® AUTO BYPASS offer the following requirements.:
- Fully automatic detection of high-precision temperature depth profiles for each measurement point
- Programmable measurement interval between measurements (e.g. daily oder monthly)
- Online access to all measurement data
- Online access to all settings
- Notifications when errors/deviations such as influences of the groundwater temperature, inteferences by nearby thermal utilization of groundwater
- Detection of a three-dimensional, dynamic temperature record for an aquifer, for calibration of groundwater models
Geothermal Monitoring
The GEOsniff® AUTO BYPASS of enOware serves the automated and continuous measurement and monitoring of the depth-temperature profile in a U-tube, e.g. in geothermal probes or well measuring point. The GEOsniff® AUTO BYPASS offers the following specifications:
- Automatic insertion and removal of a GEOsniff® MEASUREMENT PIG into the measuring point
- Inductive charge and read unit
- Individually configurable measuring cycle
- Retrofittable to conventional probes with a diameter of 32/40 mm and larger
- Online connection to YouFootprint® for visualization of measurement data via smartphone
- Continuous operation and remote monitoring of operating condition
- Remote maintenance of the system via GSM/UMTS/LTE
- Connection to all common industry interfaces like BACnet, Profibus, OPC
- Integrated reference sensor for calibration check of the GEOsniff® MEASUREMENT PIG
- Automatic operation of the brine pump
- Robust housing made of POM with dimensions 360 x 120 x 112 mm / approx. 5 kg
- Protection type IP65
- Supply via external 230 VAC power supply
The GEOsniff® AUTO BYPASS sets itself apart
