10 Data Management is the organization and analysis of data collected from the field, data being monitored inside the plant, data that is important to interpret and report to ensure that your plant meetings regulatory compliance Process Management Instrument Management is the practice of ensuring that your Hach probes, sensors, analyzers are properly maintained, that you are working proactively, rather than reactively. Device Management is driving the health and operations of your plant. Data Management Instrument Management CLAROS OFFERING Process Management is where this all comes together to ultimately lead to efficient and effective plant management through optimization and smart processes

INSTRUMENT MANAGEMENT CASE STUDY 13 Problem A new, unmanned plant was built about 15 minutes away from main plant. Two (2) instrument technicians responsible for five (5) plants. Solution Claros MSM was implemented along with seven (7) SC 1500 controllers and 21 instruments (LDO, Solitax, Nitratax, Phosphax, Amtax) using Wi. Fi communication and Profibus functionality. Benefits Remote monitoring and alerts of instruments enables technicians with better visibility of remote plant and spend less time on maintenance tasks. Company Confidential
DATA MANAGEMENT CASE STUDY Problem 14 A municipal sewer district with responsibilities for interception, collection and treatment of wastewater as well as storm water management. The district’s serves a population of 1. 4 M, treating 330 MGD. Solution Claros WIMS was implemented to collect data from all plants, integrated with SCADA, control systems and Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS). Benefits With volumes of data generated across different treatment facilities, data consolidation, analysis, and integrity was optimized, errors were reduced, and regulatory reporting was simplified. Company Confidential
PROCESS MANAGEMENT CASE STUDY Problem A WWTP experienced operational challenges such as unpredictable sludge consistency, high polymer costs, and highly manual processes at the facility’s two centrifuges led to high costs and inefficient operations. Solution Claros RTC-SD (Sludge Dewatering) was installed to replace grab sampling in the feed sludge with realtime flow and solids measurements to better dose polymer. Benefits 15 Company Confidential Continuous analysis optimized sludge treatment during dewatering processes, allowing plant to run more consistently. Resulted in 70% fewer manual operations at centrifuges and contributed to 58% drop in polymer spend.
