FREEWAVE TECHNOLOGIES’ CRAIG HELD TO PRESENT APPLICATIONS AND INNOVATIONS FOR CATHODIC PROTECTION REMOTE MONITORING

Company executive to express growing need for automated remote monitoring at NACE Western Area Conference 2011

WHO: Craig Held

General Manager, International

FreeWave Technologies, Inc.

(www.freewave.com)

Craig Held is general manager of FreeWave Technologies’ international operations and also serves as cathodic protection product manager.

Founded in 1993, FreeWave Technologies is a world leader in the innovative design/manufacture of license-free spread spectrum, licensed band radios and wireless data solutions that are trusted for mission critical applications around the world (www.freewave.com).

WHAT: “Applications and Innovations for Battery-powered Cathodic Protection Remote Monitoring”

As automated remote monitoring with wireless data communication radios increasingly is becoming a popular choice for many pipeline, energy and utility operators, additional wireless options have begun to emerge. Battery-powered remote monitoring is a new solution that is available for pipe-to-soil measurement. Unlike a traditional wireless system, this automated remote monitoring option can be submersed and installed underground. It offers a number of economic benefits, such as real-time compliance and asset protection; continuous, automated remote monitoring – saving precious resources which can be deployed for other more pressing business concerns.

Traditionally, a technician would manually collect pipe-to-soil measurements while making inspections of the right of way or the effected structure. Battery-powered remote monitoring eliminates the need for manual measurements and provides real-time data from the field directly to the user’s fingertips. These new systems are designed for pipe-to-soil users who are committed to exceeding compliance requirements and moving from measurement to active mitigation. Held will discuss remote monitoring options that are available and affordable in a secure proprietary network with no connection fees. He will cover the economic benefits of a battery-powered remote monitoring system and will provide a real-world case study of how technologies, like this, are being deployed at a major international airport to improve its remote, automated monitoring.

Battery-powered remote monitoring eliminates the need for manual measurements and provides real-time data from the field directly to the user’s fingertips. This new remote monitoring option eliminates the need for solar panels and, because it can reside underground, decreases the chance of theft and vandalism. Using battery-powered remote monitoring can bring the price of remote monitoring down to the point where it’s feasible to eliminate most, if not all, pipe-to-soil manual monitoring.

These new systems are designed for pipe-to-soil users who are committed to exceeding compliance requirements and moving from measurement to active mitigation.. This presentation will discuss remote monitoring options that are available and affordable in a secure proprietary network with no connection fees. In addition, it will provide a real-world case study example of how technologies, like this, are being deployed at a major international airport to improve its automated monitoring.
