WaterSentry

Water Monitoring System

BAE Systems recently completed the first commercial and military installations of the WaterSentry monitoring system at facilities in Alabama, North Carolina and Tennessee.

WaterSentry is the first product to automatically and continuously test for chemical toxins that have been introduced into water supplies. This fully automated system continuously tests algae activity. Within minutes, the system can detect the presence of a chemical contaminant and provide an immediate alert to a remotely located control station.

WaterSentry is a new approach to quickly detect toxic chemicals in large-scale, primary- source drinking water supplies for homeland security and regulatory use. It is fully automated, easily maintained, and reduces the need for personnel to go to sites to manually test water supplies.
