AMS

AMS introduces MetalGuard™ Lead Alert!™ — a novel automated and unattended real-time lead corrosion risk management system for monitoring the risk of exposure to lead contamination. MetalGuard Lead Alert! is specifically designed to address lead contamination concerns by providing high frequency, timely and accurate predictive data on dissolved and total lead in water samples to alert utilities and consumers of an increased risk of lead contamination, before lead contamination occurs and impacts consumers and their health.

Recent drinking water lead contamination crises in Flint, Mich., and Newark, N.J. are raising concerns about the ability of traditional lead monitoring programs to measure the presence of all forms of lead; capture unpredictable changes in water quality that result in lead corrosion; and report the contamination risk before the water is delivered to the customer. AMS is dedicated to the development and commercialization of the company’s solutions for reducing the risk of lead contamination by providing water systems and communities real-time lead monitoring solutions to protect public health.

AMS is opening a new Innovation Center in Wyckoff, New Jersey dedicated to the development and commercialization of the company’s innovative SafeGuard H2O system for reducing the risk of lead contamination. SafeGuard H2O is an Intelligent Water Treatment System incorporating real-time contaminant analysis with a proven in-situ trace metal remediation technology. It integrates AMS’s online lead analyzer for accurate, continuous and dynamic assessment of the presence of total lead in buildings or zones exposed to events that are the cause of acute lead contamination.
