Resumo

This work presents a study of the possibilities of application of automation in urban water supply system, in order to reduce losses in the system, at different points, as well as increase the control of the concessionaire.The management of the control and loss reduction aims to contribute in the efficiency of the supply system, mainly in the distribution system.From the literature, are described different types of water losses in the system and at what point will occur, being correlated to their causative agents.Solutions are presented for increased efficiency in reducing losses, especially in the control of the pressure and flow rate in the system, which is touted as a factor directly related to losses.The sectoring and automation, via devices connected remotely to a central control, are presented as great solutions for greater control and speed identification of faults.The cases found suggest that the automation generates great advantages to the service provider, which would increase the supply of water from the system manufacturer, besides the reduction of costs by the great reduction of losses and increase of the efficiency of the system.
