SCADA IN WATER WORKS

“SCADA” stands for “supervisory control and data acquisition.” The SCADA system is essentially a distributed computer system that is used by operations and management for process monitoring and automation.

Applications of SCADA for Water Systems:

SCADA has a broad range of applications. Their monitoring functions allow real-time insights across filtration plants, pump stations, and entire distribution networks. Each piece of equipment that requires monitoring, from valves to tanks, can be equipped with sensors.

SCADA is a collection of hardware and software components. Plant floor devices such as pumps, valves, and transmitters transfer real-time data to processors such as RTU’s or PLC’s
