SCADA Equipment
| The Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) equipment is installed at eight pumping sites
including the ITF on the ATRC. The facilities were designed to demonstrate
a wide range of technologies. Control is demonstrated on both electric
and diesel pumps. A variety of PLC‘s and sensors are installed.
Both wired and radio communication technologies are demonstrated. Variable
Frequency Drives (VFD) are installed a several locations. A list of
equipment by site is shown below (location map): |
