Nine drainage pumping stations upgraded through PLC-based automation, field sensing, SCADA and
command-centre integration.
Heavy rainfall can rapidly raise water levels across Patna’s low-lying areas, placing drainage operations under immediate pressure. Aaxis Nano Technologies has modernised nine drainage pumping stations for Patna Smart City Limited across Yogipur, Yogipur NBCC, Saidpur, Pahari Old, Pahari New, Pahari NBCC and three Eco Park locations.
Connected Pumping Infrastructure
Together, the facilities comprise 62 pumps — 54 electrically operated and eight diesel-operated units. The deployment creates a connected framework for automatic pump control, equipment supervision and central visibility, reducing reliance on local manual intervention.
Automated Monitoring & Control
Radar level transmitters measure water levels, while pressure, vibration and temperature sensors provide information on pump and motor condition. Multifunction meters monitor electrical parameters and energy consumption.
PLC panels apply predefined logic to start or stop pumps at specified water-level thresholds, while HMI’s support local operation. Motor-operated gate valves and IP cameras further extend control and site visibility.
From Field Data to Centralised Operations
A SCADA system brings pump status, water levels, alarms, operating trends and historical records onto a common interface. IoT-enabled communication transfers field information to the central platform, while integration with Patna’s Integrated Command and Control Centre (ICCC) enables city teams to supervise all nine locations from a single facility. The system is supported by a five-year comprehensive Annual Maintenance Contract, supporting continued availability and operational continuity.
Supporting Faster Response During Heavy Rainfall
By linking field sensing, automatic control and central supervision, the deployment provides earlier visibility of equipment abnormalities and enables faster coordination during heavy rainfall.
Through this integrated system, Aaxis Nano supports timely stormwater removal, reduced dependence on on-site intervention and lower waterlogging risk across vulnerable areas.
