Groupe Schneider Is Your Single Source Supplier
Water... it's something most of us take for granted. It's available, it's
relatively inexpensive and it's always there when we need it. Few people
know, or care, about the extraordinary amount of labor, electrical power,
machinery, automation and process expertise it takes to allow us the
luxury of taking water for granted.

Groupe Schneider – along with the thousands of consulting engineers

and municipal engineers that keep today's water facilities running
smoothly – knows exactly what it takes to let us to think so little about this
precious resource.

It takes leading edge technology and a thorough understanding of the

industry. It takes extremely reliable control, distribution and automation
components and the expertise to properly apply them. It takes a strong
commitment to the industry and the research and development invest-
ment needed to drive continuous improvement in the process. And, most
of all, it takes total
cooperation between the
consulting engineer, the
municipal engineer and
the supplier of process

 Monitoring Power Quality And Power Management
Enhances Operating Efficiency And The Bottom Line

Water treatment facilities, like all continuous process operations are an

expensive investment. To obtain the highest possible return on this
investment it is critical to keep the facility running at maximum efficiency.
This is generally easier said than done. A circuit breaker trips and shuts
down a pump, the shutdown pump causes an overflow... suddenly the
continuous process is no longer continuous. Square D power monitoring
and control systems not only help ensure maximum facility operating
efficiency, they can also save on operating costs.

Power Monitoring and Management

A Square D POWERLOGIC system constantly monitors power distribu-
tion within the facility. It can minimize facility downtime by sending an
alarm when key power circuits are pulling more amperage than usual.
Facility maintenance personnel can then correct any
problems before they can impact operations. In the

Reduce Costs And Ensure Delivery As Specified
Time is money. Truer words have never been spoken, especially in the
design and installation of control systems for water/wastewater applica-
