Application engineers will assist with configuration and equipment

choices on a site-by-site basis to ensure reliability, safety, and proper data management. They will review application requirements and

objectives and help develop a cost-effective and efficient solution.

With extensive product and deployment knowledge, our specialists will work with you to determine important monitoring aspects, such as the best sensors, platform, and method for data collection. If existing options are not suitable for a new project, custom platforms, sensors, and adaptations are possible to suit a growing list of unique applications.

Additionally, application engineers can help with the preparation of project proposals and create custom support drawings that illustrate the various components of a monitoring and data acquisition system.

Planning

The application engineers and scientists at Fondriest Environmental specialize in designing real-time monitoring systems with data transmission via cellular, radio, landline phone, Ethernet, WiFi, and satellite telemetry, as well as sharing data via the Internet. They

can help figure out the most cost-effective real-time monitoring solution for a specific application and then determine how to

implement it.

Real-time monitoring can save valuable time and money by

eliminating the need to retrieve field data manually. A combination

of cutting-edge technology and advanced software produces seamless networks of environmental sensors that provide real-time data from remote locations.

Monitoring

Fondriest’s monitoring systems interface with sophisticated data

collection and processing software that simplifies and automates

many of the tasks associated with acquiring, processing, analyzing, and publishing environmental data. This complete, ready-to-use environmental data toolkit offers a straightforward interface and

makes it easy for anyone to configure and customize environmental

monitoring and data collection projects.

This software can post data directly into WQData, a secure web datacenter service that provides an online interface for viewing environmental data. It offers 24/7 instant access to project data using any web browser.

Fondriest can set up and configure this software on a project

computer, providing a turnkey solution for clients. Just turn it on, and have easy, convenient access to your data. Alternatively, Fondriest can collect and host a project’s data from its state-of-the-art server room.

Either solution is a simple and cost-effective way to have this 24-hour access to project data, automatically generate reports,

receive instant notifications, and easily share data with colleagues

around the world.

Cutting-Edge Monitoring Software

Integration

Monitoring equipment requires proper assembly before it is ready

for the field. This process can be difficult and time consuming without

the right tools, knowhow, and manpower. That’s why highly skilled Fondriest technicians will pre-construct devices before they leave

our doors. And before sending monitoring equipment to the field,

Fondriest will test all sensor, data logging, and telemetry functions to ensure the system is working completely free of errors.

Fondriest engineers can handle this initial setup and testing

knowledgeably and efficiently, because they do it every day. This

saves unnecessary hassle and frustration during a deployment and helps ensure you can start collecting data quickly.

We’ve heard from our clients how overwhelming it can be to order monitoring equipment elsewhere, receive it in pieces, and have to assemble it themselves. Constructing a sophisticated, expensive, monitoring system that includes sensitive components can be nerve wracking. Fondriest can handle this initial assembly so you can focus on what matters: making good use of quality data.

Calibration

Quality data depends on monitoring equipment that is precisely and routinely calibrated. Fondriest’s trained technicians have performed thousands of calibrations. Their experience guarantees

a proper and efficient calibration, ensuring the continued delivery

of accurate, reliable data.

Field technicians can service monitoring equipment on site. This option means equipment will not have to be sent away and monitoring can resume almost immediately following calibration.

Alternatively, sensors and equipment can be sent to Fondriest’s factory-authorized service center. Our service center is fully equipped with all the necessary equipment and calibration reagents to ensure a dependable calibration with quick turnaround times.

Monitoring equipment will be returned with a certified calibration

report, so clients can see exactly how well their sensors are functioning.

On-Site Calibration

Fondriest’s field engineers can help save time, money, and unnecessary hassles in the field. They offer both extensive field

experience and deployment expertise, including workboat services, to facilitate the implementation of a project, no matter how complex.

Fondriest engineers handle data buoy platforms, fixed PVC pipe

deployments, weather monitoring stations, sophisticated in-facility systems, and more. They have experience deploying equipment for everything from small university research projects to major operations, such as river early warning systems, dredge turbidity monitoring, and industrial process monitoring applications. Whatever the deployment needs, Fondriest engineers will ensure the setup and deployment runs smoothly so customers can start collecting data with little delay.

Training

As customers become familiar with their systems, they can rely on Fondriest’s detailed product knowledge and experience to help them learn. To ensure customers can begin using their equipment

as quickly and efficiently as possible, application engineers are

available for training and technical support, both by phone and in person.

Located in the Lower Great Lakes and Ohio River Valley region,

Fondriest’s close proximity to many customers provides the unique opportunity to offer personalized, on-site training and ongoing support.

Questions and issues are bound to come up not just at the beginning but throughout the duration of a monitoring project, which is why Fondriest Environmental offers free long-term technical support. Application engineers and experienced in-house technicians are available during the work week between the hours of 8 a.m. – 6 p.m. EST to assist users over the phone and via email with technical questions and troubleshooting. Most email requests receive a response within a few hours. In-person and on-site consultations are also possible. Fondriest Environmental’s knowledgeable engineers can even conduct group training sessions to prepare a whole team for properly operating monitoring equipment.

Repair

Once a monitoring system is set up, equipment should be inspected, reconditioned, and calibrated periodically to ensure reliable results. Quality data can be directly correlated to the condition of monitoring equipment. Fondriest Environmental offers a unique

maintenance and certification program for YSI 6-Series sondes

and displays, YSI 556 multi-parameter meters, and all other YSI handheld water quality meters. Fondriest repair technicians will perform a free evaluation and send a repair quote via email to the point of contact and then repair the instrument based on the user’s feedback.

Authorized

Repair Center

Instrument check-up, characterization, and certification by a

factory-authorized service center are recommended on a semi-annual basis. In addition to improved data quality, the useful life of the monitoring instrument is extended with regular service. Fondriest’s factory-authorized service and repair center offers excellent turn-around times and low service costs on YSI instrument repair and annual maintenance services, ensuring the continuity of a sampling program and accuracy of its data. Technicians can also

visit the field to repair and calibrate equipment on site.
