SCADA Engineering is an expert in delivering small projects, but regardless of size, every project has a common starting point:
“We communicate and listen to our customers to find out their needs”.
Contact us and we will be pleased to discuss your current issues and requirements and see where we can be of assistance.
SCADA Engineering has been privileged to have a long relationship with Logan City Council, having worked on their Water and Waste Water Telemetry and SCADA since 2006.
We perform all their routine telemetry maintenance, upgrades and new projects. This work includes assisting them with;
- Supply, programming, commissioning and maintenance of RTU telemetry stations at water and waste water facilities
- Supply, programming, commissioning and maintenance of UHF licensed data radio network
- Radio surveys to identify suitable antenna locations and radio paths
- Improvements to RTU controls for VSD pumps
- Implementing logic for managing and controlling overflow across a vast network of pump stations
- Maintenance on weather stations
- Supply and management of 4G private APN services
- Supply, management and configuration of 4G data loggers
- Emergency on-site support
SCADA Engineering were approached by Tablelands Regional Council to change the way the existing RTU controls the dosing of hypochlorite at their water treatment plant. SCADA Engineering began the project by writing a scope of works and functional specification for discussion with the client. After the design was confirmed, SCADA Engineering commenced with the programming and finally attended site in North Queensland for commissioning and site acceptance testing.
Whilst being a fairly small project this upgrade has delivered considerable value to Tablelands Regional Council in terms of stability in their residual chlorine levels and eliminating under/overdosing of hypochlorite. As a result, the Council now has more confidence in their dosing regime and subsequently in their water quality compliance commitments.
Century Mines, located in far North Queensland, engaged the services of SCADA Engineering to help them design, build and commission the RTU and telemetry link for their upgraded borefield pumps.
The New Century Mine raw water is obtained from a number of bore pumps, with the raw water pumped to the raw water dam at the mine site. From there, water is taken to be used for various applications including the site water treatment plant, process water for the mill operation and water for the hydro mining operation. Century Mines’ requirement was to have the ability to monitor and control the borefield pumps remotely.
SCADA Engineering performed the initial design and produced engineering drawings and functional specifications. Following this, the chosen RTU (being a Kingfisher CP35 with DNP3 protocol) was programmed and the panel was constructed and shipped to site for installation and commissioning.
Toowoomba Regional Council purchased a new sludge monitor system for one of their water treatment plants. They acquired the services of SCADA Engineering to interface the new sludge monitor with the existing RTU so that the sludge monitor can be monitored and controlled automatically, and also to control the sludge draw-off valve based on the feedback from the sludge monitor. The RTU is a Kingfisher CP12 and we had intimate knowledge of the site because we did the original water treatment plant project xxxxxxxxxxxx years earlier.
SCADA Engineering completed the design and produced engineering drawings and functional specification. All programming of the Kingfisher RTU was done as well as updating the existing Citect SCADA to reflect the upgrades. Finally, the system was commissioned onsite.
After the successful completion of this project Toowoomba Regional Council has procured the further services of SCADA Engineering to perform the same upgrade at another waste water treatment facility.
