MXT03+MXS05RU Online Flow Monitor for Drainage Networks

MXT03+MXS05RU   It is a product specifically designed for urban drainage pipe networks. Battery-powered online flow monitor . This system by MXT03 Data acquisition host pairing MXS05 series Composed of a flow velocity sensor, with a focus on… No wiring required, no fiber-optic cabling needed. Its convenient deployment makes it widely used for monitoring flow rates and water levels in manholes and pipelines.

I. System Architecture and Operating Principle

MXT03 Host : Responsible for “ brain ” Function. Built-in high-capacity battery, integrated 4G/NB-IoT The wireless communication module is responsible for collecting sensor data, storing it, and uploading it to the cloud platform.

MXS05RU Sensor : Responsible for “ Perception ” Function. Typically employs Ultrasonic Doppler or Radar speed measurement The principle involves measuring the flow velocity within the pipeline and, in conjunction with a pressure-type water level gauge, calculating the real-time discharge using a cross-sectional model.

II. Core Product Features

Ultra-low power consumption and long battery life

It employs an industrial-grade, low-power design and is powered by a single-use lithium‑thionyl chloride battery; at the standard sampling frequency, The battery life can reach 2 year , significantly reducing the frequency of underground maintenance.

High Protection and Explosion-Proof Safety

The host is equipped with IP68 Waterproof rating and Ex ia IIC T 4 Go Explosion-proof certification ， It can safely operate in environments containing flammable and explosive gases such as methane that may be present in drainage networks. ；

The shell is made of 316 Stainless steel, Corrosion-resistant, acid- and alkali-resistant, and impact-resistant; suitable for use in sewage networks. 。

Intelligent Operations and Maintenance Convenience

Magnetic on/off switch No need to open the cover—simply use an external magnet to wake or put the device into sleep mode.

APP Bluetooth debugging : Supports mobile phones APP Connect locally to read data or modify parameters on-site. Significantly reduce the cost and complexity of manual inspections. 。

Posture alarm ： Equipped with a built-in tilt sensor, the device automatically sends an alarm notification if it is illegally moved or tipped over.

Dual-sensor intelligent switching, covering both full-pipe and non-full-pipe conditions.

Both full-pipe and non-full-pipe measurements are supported: using radar. + Ultrasonic dual‑wave flow measurement mode with automatic mode switching. 。

III. Main application scenarios

Urban Flooding Warning : Monitor sudden changes in flow at flood-prone locations and critical discharge outlets to provide data for flood-control dispatching.

Pipeline Network Operation Assessment : Identify abnormal operating conditions such as pipeline blockages, overflows, or infiltration and inflow.

Wastewater treatment plant influent flow measurement : Monitor the inflow volume to the plant and support operational cost accounting.

Summary

MXT03+MXS05RU With Split‑type design, full‑range operational compatibility, ultra‑high stability, and extremely low O&M costs. With its core advantages, it perfectly addresses the longstanding challenges of traditional integrated devices—namely, measurement instability and difficult maintenance—in scenarios involving large-diameter pipes and severe sediment buildup—making it the preferred front-end sensing solution for urban drainage digitalization and smart water‑management initiatives.
