The CCP-Online measurement - Making you feel secure
A quick and reliable localisation of damage in buried pipeline networks caused by external impact is of great importance to public utilities, as it directly affects guarantee of supply.
SmartKKS ensures reliable corrosion protection, capturing all CCP measurement parameters as well as all external voltages and currents which affect a pipeline. With this set-up, the SmartKKS system is capable of detecting external impacts on a cathodically protected buried pipeline at all times. For example, if there is an impact with an excavator bucket, Smart KKS will transmit the event immediately as an alarm message to a control centre.

Software
The SmartKKS software platform offers a convenient option of operating the SmartKKS system. The configuration, evaluation and storage of data, the graphical representation of the measured parameters as well as the control and parametrisation of the system can be customised for different user groups and implemented from everywhere via internet access.

More
What’s more, the SmartKKS system now allows network operators to implement a remote CCP monitoring system according to DVGW GW 16, Category 2c on many pipelines for which it's impossible with the currently available conventional technology.
