The sewer system can be connected to the "Internet of Things" just the same as a refrigerator or a washing machine. The digitalisation of urban drainage brings many advantages for sewer network operators: More efficiency, less resource consumption and a plus in terms of safety. UHRIG combines experience with innovation and recognised the potential of automated control of the sewer infrastructure early on. We rely on well thought-out complete solutions - from weirs & aggregates to measurement technology and network technology to optimised software. Sewer management has never been so easy - thanks to UHRIG, sewer networks become smart!

How does the digitisation of the sewerage system by means of network technology work?

The measuring technology installed in the sewer collects important data such as the current flow rate of the wastewater at key points. This data is forwarded from large and small control cabinets to the central control centre. The network technology is ultimately responsible for this forwarding – it connects the hardware with the software, so to speak. In the case of the sewerage system, the hardware consists of measurement technology as well as weirs and aggregates, which belong to the fixed installations. The software consists of sophisticated algorithms that can make automated decisions in firmly defined processes and forward corresponding control commands to the hardware. In modern, automated sewer networks, humans only need to intervene when specific problems arise. And here, too, the algorithms sound the alarm at an early stage thanks to network technology, so that action can usually be taken in good time before major damage can occur.

Well thought out and with consistency: Complete solutions from UHRIG

The infrastructure of pipes and sewers has been UHRIG’s great passion for more than 55 years. Sewer construction and rehabilitation are our hobbyhorses. Here we have perfected the UHRIG system. For us, it was therefore only logical to translate the opportunities offered by the digitalisation of the sewer infrastructure into concrete products for sewer network operators. The digitisation of wastewater systems does not work without sophisticated measurement technology that collects measurement data around the clock. Unfortunately, it is of no use to anyone if this measurement data remains at the bottom of the sewer and has to be read on site: With the network technology from UHRIG, this data is automatically forwarded to a central control centre and evaluated there. We thus connect the hardware with the software and enable targeted control. The combination of durable measurement technology, established network technology and intelligent software has long been tried and tested and works perfectly as a complete solution. There are no half measures with UHRIG!

We consistently think through urban drainage systems from start to finish. Thanks to the interplay of hardware and software in combination with modern network technology, it is possible to calculate and optimise the effects of control strategies on pollution balances and water level systems. This not only saves on costs, but is an important contribution to environmental protection.

In the digitalisation of sewage systems, UHRIG accompanies sewer network operators from the initial idea to the operation of the systems. We design custom-fit structures, wire the network technology and develop dialogue-capable algorithms. Together we find perfect solutions, establish the infrastructure and ensure the optimum operation of the facilities.
