Large Scale Town Estate Pump Monitoring and Access Control

TMAS™ TMN-5000 were deployed at about 500 blocks of scattered HDB public housing flats in Singapore. It was used for monitoring the fault signals from the pump controllers for e.g. power failure, pump trip, overflow, low water level etc. Upon any fault occurrence, TMN-5000 will send out user defined SMS message to alert the pump contractors, the property officers as well as the town estate Central Monitoring Station (CMS).

It was also used to secure the restricted pump site with its access control capabilities. Only authorized users were able to use their mobile phones to open the trap door via SMS command. When the door unlock, the user can enter into the pump room or roof top, close the door within 30 seconds to avoid any false intruder alarm. He can then press “Job Switch” button to record start time of site visit. After servicing or investigation tasks are completed, the user can press “Exit” Button to record the end time of site visit and open the door. He must also remember to close the door back to avoid any alarm SMS triggered. 

This solution also includes a powerful backend platform, i.e. TMAS™ web based server at the CMS side to enable an efficient management of various involved parties profiles, device setting, wireless updating, wireless health check and report generation. It also enables alarm reports including exact fault map locations to be viewed via Internet at anytime at anywhere. 

The benefits illustrated here is the peace of mind to the town estate service providers for their significant improvement in response time to such pump faults and service quality standard. Additionally, it also provides tighter access control to the pump sites to avoid any illegal site usage or sabotage as well as to prevent false claim of service maintenance routines.
