Combined Sewer Overflow Monitoring
Gain Real-Time Insight into System Capacity and Overflow Risks
Combined sewer systems face increasing regulatory pressure and infrastructure challenges. ClipperView helps utilities monitor critical sites in real time—delivering alerts, historical trends, and predictive insight to reduce CSO events and stay in compliance.
The Challenge of CSOs
During wet weather, combined sewer systems can exceed capacity, discharging untreated wastewater into the environment. These overflow events can:
- Trigger regulatory violations
- Harm public health and ecosystems
- Lead to costly fines and emergency responses
ClipperView gives operators the data needed to act before an overflow occurs.
Monitor • Predict • Prevent
1. Deploy Reliable Flow Monitoring
ClipperView integrates with ISCO Signature or Duratracker units connected to LaserFlow, bubbler, ultrasonic, or area velocity flow meters. Install at overflow points, interceptors, or regulators.
2. Receive Instant Overflow Alerts
Set threshold alarms for level and flow rate. When pre-determined limits are reached, field crews receive SMS or email alerts—enabling rapid response.
3. Analyze Performance Over Time
Understand how rainfall, infiltration, and dry weather flows contribute to system behavior. Use overlay graphs to compare events, review trends, and guide mitigation plans.

Inflow & Infiltration (I&I) Reduction System
Use ClipperView to Detect and Manage Extraneous Flow
Excess water in your sewer systems—whether from rainfall or groundwater infiltration—can overload capacity, increase treatment costs, and jeopardize compliance. ClipperView helps utilities pinpoint sources of I&I through intelligent data collection and long-term trend analysis.
The Hidden Cost of I&I
- Overloaded collection systems
- Excessive treatment plant inflow
- Increased energy and chemical use
- Risk of sanitary sewer overflows (SSOs)
- Reduced system lifespan and repair budgets
How ClipperView Supports I&I Reduction
1. Capture Flow at the Source
Deploy ISCO Signature or Duratracker instruments with area velocity, ultrasonic, LaserFlow, or bubbler sensors in key manholes or interceptors.
2. Collect & Compare Data Over Time
ClipperView overlays flow and rainfall data from multiple sites, revealing infiltration patterns and peak flow anomalies.
3. Analyze Trends, Not Just Events
Unlike isolated snapshots or site visits, ClipperView stores historical and real-time data in one interface, allowing seasonal, event-based, or gradual infiltration analysis.
4. Prioritize Field Response
Use dashboards to identify where extraneous flow is worst, schedule CCTV inspections, or validate lining and repair projects.

Advanced Effluent Flow Management with ClipperView
ClipperView offers turn-key effluent flow monitoring: sensor-agnostic setup, cloud analytics, real-time alerts, and rich visual reporting—empowering utilities to act early, maintain compliance, and optimize field operations.
Effluent systems are complex and early detection is critical. ClipperView combines real-time hardware monitoring with cloud-based analytics to help you monitor flow, predict abnormal changes, and take action before compliance risks escalate.Why ClipperView?
- Optimize field resources and reduce unnecessary site visits
- Protect infrastructure from overcleaning and degradation
- Enhance compliance with early alerts before thresholds are exceeded
- Keep crews safe and minimize traffic disruptions
The Challenge: Effluent Flow Risks
Effluent systems—whether they include combined, sanitary, or industrial flow—can mask the early signs of non-compliance or inflow/infiltration. Traditionally, routine sampling or scheduled cleanings catch issues late, at high cost.
ClipperView solves this by continuously monitoring effluent levels and flow trends with your existing hardware—providing early warning of deviations while reducing wasted labor and field time.How ClipperView Works
