Sanremo Water Purifier

The Ecological Service for the City of Sanremo aims to assure the proper functioning of the network for the collection of sewage, which, after going through stringent water purifying treatment, flow out to the sea several kilometers from the sandy shore.

To improve the efficiency off the Ecological Service, the City of Sanremo mandated the planning and production of a remote-controlled monitoring system for the collection, lifting and conveyor stations of city waste for the communal water purifier.

The remote control is managed by a water purifying panel via Omron CX Supervisor software, which also monitors alarms for eight of the 28 pumping stations whereas C200H PLCs and NT11S function key terminals were mounted the electric panels.

Alarms via GSM network

This specific technology adopted allowed to integrate the communications functions with the requirements of automated management of electromechanical equipment installed near the pumping stations. Specific attention was paid to the handling of alarms received by the monitoring station via modem connected to the PLC C200HS and divided among the available technicians via the GSM telephone network.

Currently, development studies of the system have introduced improvements in terms of flow optimization and automatic treatment of fluids through physical, chemical and biological agents.

In particular, if the Omron inverter is inserted with integrated energy-saving functions into an additional PLC CS1 near the monitoring central station to further improve communication via modem, and other touch screen terminals to simply and intuitively manage the electric panel.
