Intelligent energy management with AQASYS

Analysing data and key figures is crucial for evaluating plants, systems and their processes. With AQASYS 11, you can now achieve a new dimension of analysis by utilising methods that were not available in conventional control systems. AQASYS 11 uses artificial intelligence (AI) for the first time - and thus offers you a digital assistance system. AQASYS AI is fully integrated into AQASYS.

This enables AI-supported analysis and monitoring of individual or multiple process variables, allowing anomalies to be detected more quickly and reliably. You are warned at an early stage, can intervene in good time, provide feedback and utilise forecasts of process-relevant variables.

AQASYS AI is the ideal tool for utilising the full potential of your data and analysis options.

Anomaly detection: Get to know the AI assistance system that monitors flow measurements, water meters and leaks. Replace or supplement your manual monitoring, such as night-time minimum monitoring, with AQASYS AI. Adapt the AI to your needs with just a few clicks and continuously improve it through active feedback and your expertise.

Forecasts AQASYS: AI not only analyses past and current data, but also provides support with forecasts. Future scenarios such as solar yields, fill levels and consumption can be predicted using system data and weather data.

SCHRAML IoT components and telecontrol stations enable the reliable and secure connection of distributed outdoor structures to the central process control system - for every application and every data transmission path (e.g. 4G mobile communications, DSL, LAN, SHDSL, LTE-M, etc.). Our telecontrol technology stands for your PLUS in data storage and data security, even if transmission to the control centre is interrupted. PLUS direct cross-communication between the telecontrol stations for fast and fail-safe control processes. PLUS system-oriented operation thanks to HMI touch panel connection directly at the telecontrol station. We support all PLC interfaces (all manufacturers, TCP/IP, Modbus TCP, M-Bus, IEC 60870-5-104, OPC UA) or can also function as a PLC ourselves with the CODESYS IEC programme.

Our telecontrol power packs FWL 555 and 550: For remote monitoring and control (PLC) in one, but also for flexible coupling of external PLCs. With integrated LTE modem, VPN router (e.g. PLC remote programming, webcam connection), 8 DE or even 16DE, 8DA, 4AE onboard and flexibly expandable with external I/Os. Optionally with automatic alternative path switching between DSL and LTE as a ‘double floor’ for data and fault message transmission to the control centre.

The FWL 520 LTE router with telecontrol function - the component for cost-effective entry into telecontrol technology. Use the FWL 520 LTE/VPN router to connect all PLCs via TCP/IP and rely on the proven security of a telecontrol station with data buffering over several days and LTE data transmission to the control system.

For locations without a power supply, the self-powered data loggers from SCHRAML are the right choice for reliable data recording and transmission. In both the FWD Advanced and Lite versions, extremely long-lasting batteries or the solar/rechargeable battery version ensure that the data logger and the sensors/measurement technology (e.g. radar, ultrasound or pressure probe) are safely powered. Possible areas of application are, for example, fault or limit value monitoring with alarm, remote meter reading, pipe breakage and leakage detection, monitoring of water levels/heights, pressures, flow rates, stormwater tank and overflow events.

Thanks to trigger control, our SCHRAML FWD Advanced and FWDA Lite data loggers provide high-resolution data exactly when it counts - for example, when limit values are exceeded or critical fault messages are signalled. In the normal state, the loggers work with longer measurement and transmission intervals to conserve battery power. In the case of critical events, the trigger switches to close-meshed data acquisition in order to provide the best possible support for important decisions.

Data transmission to the process control system is possible via 4G LTE, LTE-M and NB-IoT and can be securely encrypted.

Integrated sensors measure humidity, temperature and light for automatic problem detection during operation or when the device is opened.

The robust housings with protection class IP 68 (FWDA Lite) and IP 67/66 (FWD Advanced) are ideally suited to the requirements of sewer and water networks.

The AQASYS process control system is the right solution for water suppliers, wastewater treatment plant operators, sewer networks, landfills, flood protection systems and local and district heating suppliers. Control, regulate and monitor your processes and systems with a specialised system that perfectly meets your requirements. Use visualisation (SCADA) in process images, dashboards and hydrographs (trend lines with webcam integration), logging (H260/M260, special and flex reports), remote alarming (voice/text2speech, app, SMS, email, city call) and maintenance management from a single source. Our industry modules for rainwater overflow basins (RÜB), operating logbook (Hirthammer), pipe burst detection and leak detection against water loss round off the solution.

Operate AQASYS flexibly as a desktop application, as a web browser solution (HTML5) or app (Android and iOS) and on the HMI touch panel. Use the full functionality of the AQASYS control system on your mobile device too - via dashboards, process images, hydrographs, reports, maintenance and remote alarms. Mobile, safe and convenient. Thanks to comprehensive connectivity, all PLCs, sensors, web portals, energy devices, inverters, wallboxes and much more can be connected and integrated directly into the AQASYS system.

The AQASYS process control system is available as a purchase solution for local installation on your control system computer or for rent or as a hosting/cloud solution.

AQASYS fulfils the highest IT security requirements (KRITIS) with end-to-end SSL/TLS encryption from the control centre to the telecontrol station, through authentication with system and device-specific certificates and with secure login procedures including 2-factor authentication.
