Ann Arbor , Michigan — February 9, 2004 — QED Environmental Systems announced today their new Retriever product for remote data collection from ground water remediation sites.

QED has been a market leader for many years in the US for groundwater sampling equipment and related products.  Retriever is QED’s new solar-powered, wireless data collection solution that boasts simplicity, efficiency and cost-savings; yet it delivers to users—from any internet-connected computer—access to a multitude of data and reports directly from the remote site, and as frequently as they choose.

The new Retriever remote data system sets new standards for simplicity, speed of startup and affordability in environmental data collection. Unlike previous remote data products, the web-based Retriever from QED Environmental Systems requires no engineering or programming skills to specify or set up, and the data can be accessed from any internet-linked computer. Since it is solar-powered, wireless and pre-programmed, installation is quick and easy. Data from the Retriever web site can be accessed in as little as two days after an order is placed, and is presented in convenient, date-range selectable tables and graphs. The standard Retriever is configured to provide pump flow and liquid level measurements from ground water remediation sites, along with other sensor options. The tier-1 data center hosted web service allows you to manage multiple sites and data collection points through one easy to navigate interface.
