The sensor is cheap. Getting it powered and connected is not.
Most non-potable lines in a plant, a commercial building or a farm have no sensor on them. Adding one more point means a power drop, an electrician, a work order and controls integration. So it never gets approved, and a clogging strainer or a starved cooling line gets found after the damage is done.
Monitoring that installs like a valve
ConduitIQ replaces a valve that is already throttling pressure on a non-potable line: a balancing, throttling or pressure-reducing valve.
The node powers itself. It monitors fluid telemetry while the line flows and sends the data wirelessly. It typically has power to spare, so a site can add the sensing it needs.
Your own maintenance crew fits it at a planned shutdown, on a bypass between two isolation valves. The existing valve stays as the backup: close the two isolation valves and the unit comes out without stopping the line.
No electrician, no controls integrator, and no battery swaps while the line flows regularly.
Where It Works:
• Process cooling loops feeding production machines
• Cooling towers and condenser water loops
• Industrial process water
• Pressurized irrigation and non-potable distribution mains
• Any non-potable line where a valve already throttles pressure
Built for Real Industrial Water:
• Tolerant of particulate and non-potable water
• Compact footprint for mechanical rooms and pump houses
• Never tied to building power, so there's no electrician on the job
• Sits on a valved bypass, so the line keeps running during service
Which line would you watch?
Most facilities have lines they've never been able to justify monitoring. Tell us about one.
Example: the cooling line nobody watches
Picture a cooling line feeding a production machine. Something partly clogs, and flow starts to drop.
Nobody sees it, because that branch has no sensor. The plant watches the chiller, not every line off it.
The first sign is scrap parts, a hot mold or a tripped machine. A trend on that line would have flagged it hours earlier.
How it works. Three simple steps.
How it works. Three simple steps.
1. REPLACES A VALVE
Goes where a valve already throttles pressure on a non-potable line, fitted by your own crew.
2. POWERS ITSELF
No wire to run, and no batteries to swap while the line flows.
3. SENDS THE DATA
Fluid telemetry from the line, over wireless, with power to spare for more sensing.
WHAT CHANGES FOR YOU
Why it matters
Most lines go unmonitored because of the wire, not the sensor. Take the wire away and the math changes.
Catch it early.
See a clogging strainer or a starved cooling line hours ahead, not at the post-mortem.

The bigger picture.
Plants, buildings and farms already watch their chillers, pumps and meters. ConduitIQ reaches the lines in between, the ones nobody could justify wiring.
WHERE CONDUITIQ FITS
Manufacturing
PROCESS COOLING LOOPS
The line feeding a mold, a press or a machine tool is where a starved or fouling cooling loop turns into scrap. ConduitIQ watches that branch, not just the chiller, and goes in where a balancing or throttling valve already sits.
Industrial facilities
Industrial Water Systems
Process water, rinse and service lines that never justified a power drop. Replace the valve that already throttles the line, and the line starts reporting: a trend you can alarm on, instead of a gauge someone has to walk to.
COOLING TOWERS
Makeup water and bypass lines on cooling towers often run through a pressure-reducing or balancing valve. ConduitIQ takes that valve's place and reports what the tower is actually being fed, so a problem shows up on the trend before it shows up in the basin.
