Wireless to the scada system

June 2017 Industrial Wireless

The Teleterm M3Re RTU from Omniflex is designed for remote monitoring and control applications where cable installations are impractical or too expensive. It makes such applications simple to achieve and install by including a built-in radio, antenna and an Ethernet port.

The RTU can be used to send and receive data, status, measurements etc. wirelessly (operating on licence-free radio frequency) from one location to another, and conveniently pass data directly to DCS or scada systems via the built-in Ethernet port.

Also programmable in ISaGRAF, an industry standard programming environment for all five IEC61131-3 programming languages, the M3Re provides the ability for control and custom logic.

The device is equipped with 12 universal I/O ports that can be configured for analog or digital I/O, depending on the desired application. Other features:

• Perfect for applications where cable installations are impractical.

• Simple, quick and low cost installation.

• Cost effective wireless solution for remote monitoring and control.

Typical applications include remote stop/start of pumps and remote environmental as well as substation monitoring.

At its peak in 1994, the energy generation capacity of the UK’s nuclear power stations was 12,7 GW across 16 plants. In 2024, the capacity has fallen to around 5 GW, and the number of stations is down to nine. However, this is far from the end of the story as spent nuclear fuel remains radioactive for centuries, and requires rigorous safety processes to safeguard against leaks.
