Client: Apa Serv Valea Jiului
Project Goal:
Implementation of SCADA Control Center
Project Description:
Electroglobal SA developed a SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system for the Valea Jiului water company’s control center, enabling the monitoring and control of essential parameters in the distribution network across the towns in Valea Jiului. The system allows for:
- Real-time monitoring of water pressure and flow.
- Visualization of levels, pressure, and flow in potable water tanks.
- Monitoring of water quality through chlorine and turbidity levels.
- Management of wastewater pumping stations, including flow and pressure.
- Monitoring of operational parameters of wastewater treatment plants.
Equipment Used:
- SCALANCE 646-2C Routers
- 162 S7-1200 PLCs
- S7-1500 PLCs
- GSM Communication Processors – CP 1243-7 LTE
- Ethernet Communication Processors: CP 1243-1
- Redundant Servers
Project Benefits:
- Operational Efficiency: Rapid identification and resolution of issues optimize resource consumption.
- Service Quality: Ensuring water quality complies with health standards improves consumer satisfaction.
- Resource Management: Optimal management of levels and pressure in tanks prevents surplus and shortages.
- Regulatory Compliance: Maintaining parameters within set limits prevents penalties and protects reputation.
- Cost Reduction: Early problem detection and efficient management reduce operational and repair costs.
- Environmental Protection: Efficient wastewater management and proper treatment help prevent pollution.
This SCADA project for the water company represents a significant step towards modern and efficient water resource management, offering substantial benefits for both operators and consumers.
