Security for Municipal and Private Water Utilities

Municipal Waterborne Threats

In the United States, more than 160,000 public water systems provide drinking water to more than 300 million Americans. Given the reliance on these systems, the threat posed by the introduction of waterborne pathogens cannot be underestimated. Inadvertent water supply contamination by organisms such as cryptosporidium, have clearly demonstrated the severe public health and economic impact of such an event. The threat of a deliberate, large-scale incident then certainly holds catastrophic potential.

BioSentry: Unassailable Security

Finally, a fundamentally unique technology is available to provide utilities with the continuous, real-time analysis required to verify water safety and assure the earliest possible contamination warning.

  • Integrated, System-Wide Monitoring
  • Real Time Contamination Detection and Notification
  • Automatic Microbe Classification

"The JMAR system gives us the confidence of knowing the status of our water supply in real time. We have a very high level of assurance that any potential microbial incident , whether deliberate or accidental, will be detected immediately. BioSentry allows us to respond to the earliest warning system available."
