Since the first devices were installed in the 80s, CEO's expectations and needs have changed. SOFREL Remote Management equipment has always adapted to fit these evolving needs by offering increased I/O capacity, more features, support of various communications media, and more.

Today, the network comprises about forty SOFREL RTUs connected over the dial-up phone network or a dedicated line to the master station, via a front-end processor. Some devices also share data across the "Inter-RTU" link (allowing e.g. water tower/pumping servocontrol).

This resulted in quality-related benefits:

• Better service due to the continuous monitoring of the physical characteristics of the supplied water,
• Optimized pumping (energy savings by adjusting pumping during low-cost tariff periods),
• Higher responsiveness and increased availability of the operators (alarm filtering).

The reliability and durability of SOFREL Remote Management solutions, coupled with high-performance local support (training, maintenance, etc.), also played a significant role in CEO satisfaction.
