SUPERVISORY CONTROL AND DATA ACQUISITION

DOMAIN : Process Automation HOW IS IT USED?

WHAT IS IT ?
A control system used in industrial
,infrastructure ,and facility based
system for Monitoring and
controlling Processes
instantaneously or ”in re
real-time”.
WHAT IS IT MADE O
OF ?
Programmable
Logic
Controllers
PLCs are digital computers that
collect data (temperature, flow
rate ,water level , etc.) and are
able to perform basic tasks such
as opening and closing a valve or
turning a pump on or off. There
can be hundreds or thousands of
PLCs in one facility or system.

ALARM : Alarm handling consists essentially of time stamped alarms to 1 millisecond precision.

REMOTE It performs Dynamic allocation of alarm pages and keeps track of deviation and rate of change
monitoring for analog alarms.
TERMINAL
UNITS

RTUs are hardwired to PLCs and at as an

interface between PLCs a Communications
Network.
They transmit commands to PLCs and also
collect data output from PLCs.
