Metering/SCADA Systems

RFL are independent of any major PLC manufacturers so can used a range of PLC's and software which fully support the integration of a Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system. This offers the advantage of the RFL fault tolerant control system controlling the critical supplies with the flexibility of a PC based solution to archive historical data.

The SCADA system can provide data collection of meters, circuit protection devices and control equipment. It allows manual control and intervention from the head end PC of the non RFL controlled items. It is an essential tool to provide a complete overview of your electrical infrastructure, offering:

Alarm Management

• A larger archive of alarms and data.
• Fault diagnostics
• Event logging
• Alarm logging
• Alarms can be automatically sent to e-mail, mobiles, pagers etc.

Energy Management

Corporate responsibility and legislation has put added pressure on building services' professionals to monitor and then target energy reductions. Improved efficiencies cannot be achieved without the knowledge and understanding of how their buildings operate and consume energy.

The SCADA package provides tools for:

• Calculation of energy costs
• Load profiling
• Reporting
• Monitoring and target
• Exception reporting with automatic alarm generation

Remote Access

The system can be accessed by Intranet/Internet to remotely control or monitor the electrical infrastructure.
