JVWCD: Culinary Water Quality

Monitoring water quality prior to storage in an aquifer

Project Summary

Location:
Utah USA

Products Used:
CR10X 

Contracting Agencies:
Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District

Measured Parameters:
pH, ORP, conductivity (total dissolved solids), free chlorine; weather parameters at the water treatment plant

The Jordan Valley Water Conservancy District (JVWCD) installed a monitoring system that records water quality parameters of the culinary water supply before it enters the aquifer (subsurface storage reservoir). The system consists of a CR10X data logger that monitors pH, ORP, conductivity (total dissolved solids), and free chlorine. The data is passed to a PLC and then on to a central computer. A CR10X-based weather station monitors general weather parameters at the main treatment plant.
