Commissioned by Rijkswaterstaat, Marine Systems has realized three new measurement locations with nine sensors (which measure the conductivity and temperature) at the Krammersluizen for the purpose of supplying salt information.
The push barge locks of the Krammersluizen complex will be fitted with a new, innovative fresh and salt separation system. This system leads to a different lock- and water management system compared to the existing one. The new lock and water management system has effects on the salt intrusion into the Volkerak-Zoommeer and on the quantities of fresh water that is diverted and discharged to the Oosterschelde.
Part of the scope included building, mounting and installing the electrical boxes, connecting the datacom equipment and mounting and commissioning the sensors. For the purpose of data collection, the sensors are placed at different depths.
Marine Systems supplied, installed and commissioned the electrical and instrumentations parts for these three locations. In addition to the realization of the locations, Marine Systems will provided preventive and corrective maintenance to the sensor at the locations over the next three years. The project is part of the National Water Monitoring Network of Rijkswaterstaat. Previously, Marine Systems already put a measuring pontoon, with the same sensors, into operation at the Krammersluizen.
