Testimonials from MultiSmart customers:

 
We chose MultiSmart because it was so far ahead of everything else for lift station control. The high level monitoring and the remote control on offer will reduce our costs and make managing our collection system much easier. The whole maintenance and operational team enjoy the product because it's so easy to use. The 3-phase supply monitoring in MultiSmart helped us to identify the real supply problem in our stations. We thought there was a neutral issue with Florida Power & Light, but MultiSmart identified the real problem.
Jason Faranda, Field Service Supervisor, Village of Wellington, Florida
Once you use the set-up wizard, you never forget it. The MultiSmart is self-explanatory and everything is laid out for you. The infield training was great and now all it takes is about 1-2 hours to install and commission a MultiSmart.
Ulysses Sivilla, Village of Wellington, Florida
The DNP3 comms worked well - no issues there. The throughput was well within what I threw at it. The use of the Linux kernel made it easy for me to debug without having to change real I/O, but that's an advanced feature probably beyond the average electrician. Basically I can't fault the Multismart, never locked up or froze. Did what it was supposed to. And looks great.
Phil Wright, System Integrator, Parasyn, Australia
Flovac needed to find a user-friendly control system for its vacuum pump stations, while still meeting the stringent requirements of major water authorities. Unlike traditional PLC's which require specialist programming, the use of the Multismart Pump Station Manager has meant that operators onsite could be easily trained to alter settings on MultiSmart's intuitive display.
John Radinoff, Managing Director, Flovac, Australia
After spending time evaluating MultiSmart, I am very excited by this technology. Until now, the water industry pumping market has been short of a bespoke control and communication solution designed particularly for our applications. MultiSmart will almost certainly play a large part in helping Thames Water achieve its goals in the near future. The fact you have put everything in a single box with ease of use, advanced intelligence and included a modern outstation means we can simplify our pump station switchboard design, save money on capital and operational expenditure as well as mitigate many of our current risks. I look forward to working closely with MultiTrode so we can get the most out of a pretty impressive product.
Alfred Jato, Engineer, Waste Water Services, Thames Water, United Kingdom
I recently got a look at the MultiSmart controllers that you've created, and you've done well to package a good set of features into an attractive design and HMI-friendly product. I look forward to continuing to cover your efforts in the future.
Walt Boyes, Editor-in-Chief, CONTROL Magazine, Ilinois
I would extend my congratulations of one on the best I&C improvements to the water and wastewater market that I have seen in the past 10 years! From an engineer's point of view, the MultiSmart unit has been one the best conceived water and wastewater lift and pumping station controllers on the market today. After attending the training program in your office, I can attest that the MultiSmart is easy to use, expandable to accomplish practically any sequence of operation that is required and offers reliability/functionality that can not be cost effectively reproduced with a traditional programmable logic controller. I found the Boca Raton trainers very knowledgeable and well beyond my expectations.
Gregory Shofer, Project Manager, Stantec, Ann Arbor, Michigan
We have tested and installed 6 MultiSmart Pump Station Managers over the past 6 months and I wish to let you know that we have been very pleased with the performance and ease of installation. The field staff have seen the benefits over float controls, and over our next water plan we will be looking to convert all our stations. The specification for sewer stations now incorporates the MultiSmart as standard for pumping station management and control. For the past 12 years in the UK, with Scottish Water, I installed only the Siemens Enviroranger (LUC 500). This is an excellent and reliable pump controller, however, after testing MultiSmart, we have been pleased to find it is reliable, easier for operators to use and offers additional monitoring capabilities over any other pump controllers I have used.
Frank McShane, Manager of Operations, East Gippsland Water Authority, Australia
The City of Tavares has been using the Multismart products for just under a year. I can't imagine how we did it before; we can now monitor and control every station with speed and with the accuracy of information we require. We have also found the flow calculations invaluable for I&I studies during rain events. Our experience with the product and tech support to date has been excellent. We highly recommend MultiTrode and its products. The City of Tavares have standardized on MultiTrode products and stand by them.
Brad Hayes, Utilities Director, City of Tavares, Florida
The MultiSmart installation was the easiest thing I ever did! I took the MultiSmart unit out of the box, wired it up, turned it on and it ran. The initial start-up screen came on, asked me four or five questions, and gave me a choice of options depending on how I wanted to use the equipment. All I had to do was select an answer and confirm. It was like taking a multiple choice test in school.
Richard Guest, Water Utilities Maintenance Supervisor, East Bay Regional Park District, California
We chose MultiSmart over all the other products on the market because it had so many features and was so easy to remotely monitor. The PumpView on-line SCADA system allows me to view and control my pump stations via a web browser wherever I am.
John Deaton, Asst. Utilities Director, City of Lake Alfred, Florida
Someone has finally put all the versatility (previously available only with a custom programmed PLC) into a user-configurable platform. From simple to complex, this unit handles it all. The wealth of pump station operational information available to the end user is virtually limitless.
