Modernization of the pumping station part 2 – Implementation of new a control system (Simatic S7-1500) and visualization in the Wonderware InTouch

Water & Wastewater industry

2019

Execution of a control system based on the Siemens S7-1500 controller and visualization in the Wonderware InTouch visualization software along with its implementation, on site commissioning, staff training and technical support.

GOALS:

Providing light start-up of 1.6 MW 6 kV pumps through the use of a soft starter.
Better process control.
Increasing the efficiency of the enterprise.
Ensuring 100% availability of the facility (emergency pumping station).

CHALLENGES:

Modernization of the control and visualization system.
Modernization of the pump starting system.

SOLUTIONS:

Wonderware System Platform.
Siemens ST-1500 controllers.

BENEFITS:

Greater efficiency.
Greater ease of use of the monitoring and control system.
Reducing the cost of electricity consumption.
Soft start of pumps by means of a soft starter system.
Increasing the availability of the pumping station in the event of the necessity to start it up (emergency pumping station).

The assumption of the project was to make a soft-start system for 1.6 MW 6 kV pumps, which, before implementation, were powered directly by the network. In order to reduce the power consumption and the wear of mechanical parts, it was decided to use a 1.6 MW medium voltage soft starter. The soft starter starts 4 pumps (depending on pump availability and demand). Efficient start-up for this project was very important due to the fact that the pumping station has the status of a backup pumping station and must ensure 100% availability in the event of sudden failures.

Control-Service company prepared a control system based on Siemens S7-1500 controllers as well as a visualization system using the Wonderware System Platform software. Thanks to the modern visualization system, we have got the accurate representation of the entire facility, including pumps, fittings, power switchboards, etc. Commissioning took place from the local workstation.
