New Technology Enables Remote Water Safety Monitoring
 

Intelligent sensor to monitor the risk of legionella   

A new company started by a pair of young entrepreneurs have developed a smart sensor to provide safe protection against climate-related Legionnaires disease.    

The new Remote Tech S1 intelligent sensor uses 'Internet of Things' technology to monitor the risk of the legionella bug.   

The water-borne bacterium thrives within a specific temperature range and has been responsible for a number of outbreaks of the potentially fatal disease in the UK over the last 12 months, while recent analysis in Europe has linked a long-term rise in Legionnaire’s disease to climate change, leading to calls for enhanced safety measures in public water systems.
