<strong>Task</strong> 3. <strong>Data</strong> <strong>Logger</strong> Based <strong>Telemetry</strong> Monitoring <strong>System</strong><br />

Site Preparation and Equipment<br />

The pilot sites are all existing telemetry sites. Necessary maintenance and civil works were carried<br />

out depending on site condition. Sensor pipes and equipment boxes were renewed and painted. The<br />

sites were supplied with new batteries and water level sensors. and the following equipment were<br />

installed:<br />

record times when pump status changes, and store data on a defined frequency<br />

• New pressure-type water levels sensors and batteries<br />

• Cables and accessories<br />

• Relay enclosure, which was the interface that determined the pump status at the<br />

monitoring sites.<br />

Figure 1 shows the main components of the system at the irrigation structure sites.<br />

Irrigation Structure<br />

The equipment is connected to the same power source as the existing telemetry system at the<br />

remote sites. The data logger is connected to the existing water level sensors. The system includes<br />

three remote sites in Qena Directorate. The three sites are located in the digital map shown in<br />

Figure 2. Sharkiya’s two data logger sites are shown in Figure 3.<br />
