INDUSTRY: WATER DISTRICT
CHALLENGE: CONTROL & MONITORING OF REMOTE PUMP WELLS AND RESERVOIR VIA WIRELESS COMMUNICATION
SOLUTION: INTEGRATION OF PLC SYSTEM, SCADA & WIRELESS COMMUNICATION LINKS


-
The system is designed to centralize operation and monitoring of pumps, boosters and reservoir for the whole water district.
-
Wireless communication was employed in the system due to the distance of the remote stations from the central station.
-
Via the SCADA system located at the central station operators can turn motors on/off and monitor pump pressure, motor current, voltages and other values specific to the station and inspect area vicinity via IP camera.
-
The system generates reports and logs events and alarms necessary for proper operation of pumps and boosters.
-
It also enables fast and early detection of faults and problems in the system, thus minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.
