Automated Monitoring and Dosing
From periodic checks to continuous control Boiler water conditions are constantly changing, but traditional treatment programmes still depend on periodic testing and manual adjustments. Aquaguard Plus combines automated monitoring and intelligent dosing to continuously monitor critical boiler water parameters and automatically optimizing chemical dosing in real time. The result is greater visibility, more consistent treatment, reduced manual intervention, and improved protection of your boiler system.
The challenge is not applying treatment. It is maintaining control.
Boiler water treatment is one of the most important maintenance activities onboard. However, treatment decisions are often based on conditions observed only during periodic testing.
Between tests, water conditions can change. Treatment levels may drift, while corrosion and scale formation may begin long before issues become visible.
The challenge is not applying treatment. The challenge is maintaining optimal treatment conditions between manual checks.
Move beyond manual dosing
Traditional treatment programmes rely on manual sampling, testing, calculations, and dosage adjustments.
Aquaguard Plus introduces a more proactive approach by continuously monitoring critical water quality parameters and automatically adjusting treatment levels in response to changing conditions to help maintain optimal treatment performance around the clock.
Why automate boiler water treatment?
Improved boiler protection
Continuous monitoring helps maintain stable treatment, supporting protection against corrosion, scaling, and related performance issues.
Greater treatment consistency
Automated dosing adjusts treatment levels based on actual system conditions, helping maintain consistent treatment performance across vessels and operating environments.
Reduced manual workload
Automated monitoring and dosing reduce the time crews spend testing, recording results, and manually adjusting treatment levels.
Optimised chemical usage
Treatment chemicals are applied according to actual system requirements, helping reduce the risk of over- or under-dosing.
Improved Crew Safety
Reduced chemical handling means less direct exposure and safer day-to-day operations onboard.
