FCS Patroller II
Fluid Conservation Systems (FCS) simplifies wireless leak detector data collection with the new Patroller II system.
The Patroller II system works in conjunction with the widely used FCS Permalog + acoustic leak noise detector. Permalog + detectors attach magnetically to valves throughout a utility’s distribution system and use advanced algorithms to discern the acoustic signature of leaks from background noise.
Once leak noise is detected, the Patroller II collects the data transmitted by Permalog+ leak noise loggers wirelessly from onboard a moving patrol vehicle. Its system software allows set up and operation from a single PC or laptop, with no requirement to program and retrieve data using a PDA device before uploading it to a separate PC for analysis. Multiple loggers can be configured simultaneously and settings are saved and loaded, enabling complete District Metered Areas to be set up quickly and efficiently.
The Patroller II’s large display allows the user to customize data presentation including serial number, location number, level and spread, leak status, patrol time, address and GPS coordinates. The dedicated radio receiver is equipped with a rechargeable battery, leak alarm and LED display for battery life and communication status.
