Abstract: A device for detecting adverse events in a fire hydrant, the device comprising a housing configured to mount to an exterior of the fire hydrant, the housing having a surface in register with the exterior of the fire hydrant, the surface having an aperture therein, a cover enclosing the housing and mounted to the fire hydrant at the surface. The housing further includes a controller, a transceiver, and a water sensor.

Abstract: A device for transferring adverse event information from a plurality of remote hydrants to a municipal monitoring server comprises detecting an adverse event in a hydrant that relates to an adverse hydrant condition; transferring data representative of the adverse condition to a host server by routing the data along a predefined hopping path; and transferring the data from the host monitor to the municipal monitoring server. A system for detecting adverse events at a hydrant and event information to a municipal monitoring sever is also disclosed.

Abstract: A customer's server datagram request and/or customer field unit's datagram is wrapped with a header and footer that contains a defined hopping path with direction control. An IP Host stores predefined hopping paths to all of the customer's field units, and looks at the address of the customer's request packet to determine the correct hopping path. A communication device receives the customer's field unit's datagrams and adds a defined hopping path to send the datagram to the IP Host which removes the hopping path and sends the datagram to the customer server.

Abstract: A tank level monitoring system with wireless transmission capability. The monitoring system includes a wireless tank monitor for level sensing and connected to one or more float level switches. The system regularly measures the level of fluid in a tank, but may change the measurement rate based upon the float switch. This system actively monitors conditions of a tank and alerts a user when conditions exceed a predetermined parameter.

Abstract: Well data and production control commands are transmitted from a remote central data store to wells at a remote location with a well hopping system and method, preferably through a radio frequency (RF) network. Request packets are sent through a field station to one or more well units until it reaches the destination well unit. The destination well unit executes the data request or the command and sends a response data packet back to the central data store through the RF network using the same well hopping system and through the field station. The central data store reads and stores the data. One or more satellite offices are connected to the central data store and can download data from the central data store or send/receive data packets to/from the well units. Oxygen content in production gas can be detected and transmitted to the central store for monitoring and reporting.
