SCADA
SCADA
SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) system is used to collect data from sensors and instruments located at remote stations for the transmission and display the data in a central station for the purpose of supervision or management. Typical signals for monitoring and control are the limit switches, various types of sensors (analog and digital), relays, contactors and others. SCADA does not have complete control over the system, and it is more focused on the level of monitoring.
Big advantage of SCADA systems is the possibility of archiving data collected with programmable logic controller (PLC) which enables the analysis of weak points in the plant, and therefore process improvement.
In addition, the SCADA system can be connected to devices that are used to measure the power consumption of a complete plant or plant part.
This is a powerful tool in the analysis of individual failures that caused the cancellation of expensive equipment and enables customer to make plans for investment in the future (by analyzing the increase of energy consumed we can predict how much time will be needed to replace the transformer).

Our automation solution for small hydropower plant
OA-AE1
- cabinet dimensions 2000x1600x600
- PLC S7 300 i S7 1200 Siemens
- HMI 15“ Siemens
- Lot equipment Schneider Electric
- SCADA WinCC Professional
- ComAp relay for the protection and synchronization
- Basler device control initiatives
This is certainly a solution that consists of two cabinets containing equipment and automation equipment for the connection of a generator to the grid.
The system is controlled by a controller 300 Siemens S7 series. Power plant can be operated in three ways: through the panel, push button and via SCADA control room.
All measurements (power, current, voltage) can be permanently archived on a computer that is running the SCADA.
OA-AE2
- cabinet dimensions 1200x800x400
- PLC S7 1200 Siemens
- HMI 6,4“ Siemens
- Lot equipment Schneider Electric
- ComAp relay for the protection and synchronization
This is the solution for more modest applications in the sense that we do not have the option of archiving data, but whatever it contains all the elements necessary for the management of the power plant.
The system manages the S7 controller 1200, which all measured data transferred to the panel.
Management is possible through the panel or using the key. The system can be upgraded to meet the requirements of the client.
