SCADA Applications - Water
WATER RESERVOIR PUMP CONTROL
A common application for license free telemetry is to transfer a single
level measurement from a reservoir or water tower back to a pump/lift station for the
purpose of pump control. This can be for a standalone control application in a water
system with no centralized SCADA monitoring system or it could be a application where it
is desired that pump control be independent of the SCADA system. In one such application,
a pair of SCADALinks were used in end to end mode to
telemeter water level ½ mile back a pumpstation where a a PLC starts and stops pumps
based on the reservoir level.
