Monitoring package sewage treatment plants - the following advice is taken from the EA Guide (http://www.netregs.gov.uk/commondata/105385/ppg4_126916.pdf):

"Most package plants require electric power to operate and .. 
the installation of an alarm to warn of power or plant failure is recommended."
A new European standard for waste water treatment plants comes into effect in the UK soon:

CEN Standard 12566-3: 2005.  Small wastewater treatment systems for up to 50 PT — Part 3: Packaged and/or site assembled domestic wastewater treatment plants.  Section 5.2 Construction:

"Plants shall be structurally stable, durable, watertight and corrosion resistant. Plants shall be provided with an alarm to indicate operational failure (for example electrical, mechanical, hydraulical failure). The manufacturer shall indicate which kind of failure is detected with the alarm."

Fitting an SMS Alarm Unit ensures you comply with the regulations and can more than pay for itself by avoiding just one blocked soakaway or pollution incident!

A DC or Solar powered version is also available for monitoring -
