In Environmental Monitoring System (EMS), the 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐨𝐫 plays a critical role—continuously measuring 𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐬𝐩𝐞𝐞𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐢𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 to provide real-time environmental input for safe mooring and berthing operations.

But what happens when these sensors stay underwater for months ❓

· Distort measurement accuracy
· Weaken signal transmission
· Trigger false alarms in the EMS
👉 In practice, this is why 𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝟑 𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐡𝐬 is essential.

Recently, the Glen engineering team carried out EMS maintenance at a client site.
One of the key tasks:
· Retrieving the two current sensors from the seabed
· Performing thorough cleaning to remove marine growth
· Inspecting sensor condition and integrity
👉This hands-on process ensures the system continues to operate with engineering-grade accuracy.

After cleaning and reinstallation:
· Signal transmission was fully restored
· Real-time data displayed on the system returned to normal
· EMS alarms were cleared
👉 The system was back to delivering 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐚𝐛𝐥𝐞, 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐢𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧-𝐠𝐫𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐯𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐥 𝐝𝐚𝐭𝐚.
