Cooling tower basin

Level
Cooling tower basin

Overview

At the bottom of the cooling tower there are nozzles for atomizing and cooling incoming hot water. As the heated water is sprayed up inside the cooling tower, it warms the air, which expands, flows upward creating updraft which pulls fresh cold air up through the slatted bottom. Draft eliminators inside the cooling tower cause the cooled water to form droplets and rain back down into the cooling tower basin. The water level in the cooling tower basin must be monitored continuously to optimise use of the circulation pumps and the cooling process.

VEGA Inventory System

Inventory System

VEGA Inventory System (VIS) is a web-based software for real-time data acquisition, visualization, and logistics management of inventory levels in storage tanks and silos. Companies can manage their inventories proactively, ensuring greater flexibility in delivery schedules, expanding optimization options, and reducing stock discrepancies. Precise, real-time visualization of stocks allows deviations to be quickly identified, minimizing financial impact. The system combines reliable VEGA measurement technology for liquids and bulk solids with secure cloud-based or on-premises software, providing the basis for intelligent and strategic decisions for optimal inventory management. VIS supports both internal inventory monitoring and Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) applications, where suppliers manage customer stock replenishment using real-time level data.

  • Real-time inventory monitoring across all connected storage locations via web browser or mobile app
  • Four visualization modes — Chart, Graphic, Map, and Trend — for comprehensive stock visibility
  • Color-coded traffic light status system (green/yellow/red) for instant stock level assessment
