Permeable Pavement - Battery/Solar Power
APPLICATON
P4 INFIL-Tracker is built for monitoring permeable pavement systems, documenting performance, and assessing maintenance need. INFIL-Tracker can be used with PaveDrain Articulating Concrete Block (ACB) systems and paver systems (e.g. Unilock). A water-level sensor is located within the permeable pavement system storage gallery. Data is automatically sent to the P4 cloud-compute platform.
WHAT'S INCLUDED & OPTIONS
A.) PaveDrain - Computer, Battery, and Solar Panel In-Pavement
Included with Kit:
1.) PaveDrain compatible high-strength concrete block with integrated data acquisition computer, battery, and solar panel
2.) INFIL-Tracker high-strength concrete sensor cover block compatible with PaveDrain system
3.) P4 sensor install shield
Options:
1.) Rochester Gauges (FPI) continuous water-level sensor measuring ranges from 6 in to 60+ inches. The measuring range is specified based upon permeable pavement gallery depth.
B.) PaveDrain and Pavers - Computer, Battery, and Solar Panel Out-of-Pavement
Included with Kit:
1.) Small form factor NEMA IP67 rated data acquisition computer with integrated cellular antenna
2.) Small form factor NEMA IP67 rated 12 VDC battery pack
3.) Voltaic 18V solar panel
4.) Stainless steel mounting bracket with stainless steel hose clamps for mounting (computer, battery, and solar panel pre-assembled on bracket)
5.) P4 sensor install shield
6.) INFIL-Tracker high-strength concrete sensor cover block for PaveDrain applications
7.) INFIL-Tracker high-strength concrete tunnel block for wiring run for PaveDrain applications
8.) Cast steel valve box and cover for paver applications
Options:
1.) Rochester Gauges (FPI) continuous water-level sensor measuring ranges from 6 in to 60+ inches. The measuring range is specified based upon permeable pavement gallery depth and price is affected accordingly.
2.) Galvanized steel stand-alone pole mount with driven base and corner bolt
3.) Direct-bury sensor cabling (length dependent upon site conditions)
3.) PVC sensor wire protection at the stand-alone pole
INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS
The water-level sensor is housed in a P4-provided install shield driven into the permeable pavement storage gallery, or located within an observation well (no install shield required). Customers should consider of the permeable pavement storage gallery is lined and the impact of penetrating the liner with the sensor install shield. If penetration is to be prevented, the sensor install shield and sensor measuring range should be defined accordingly.
In cases where the sensor wiring is run to a P4-provided stand-alone pole or existing pole adjacent to the permeable pavement surface (e.g. behind the curb line), a simple process of creating a wiring path through curb and gutter using a sawcut wiring path, backer rod and sealant is employed.
