SCADA APPLICATION IN WATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS

Öz

Nowadays, technologies of SCADA are widely used in control systems in industrial automation. SCADA systems provide monitoring of water production and distribution systems that are geographically distributed to extensive areas. Water distribution systems often consist of a large number of components such as water reservoirs, booster pumping stations, and water treatment plants. The components should be controlled and monitored continuously for providing treated water to be delivered to consumer tap. In this study, first of all, water distribution system components which are used in urban water network system are examined and technical specs of these components are given. In proceeding sections, standard and technical specifications of SCADA systems and their major components, required control equipment for planning a SCADA system, sensors, RTUs are explained. At last, water distribution system is planned for a booster pump station model. This station has four motorpumps and a large number of detectors. A microprocessor based Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) is used in order to control motor-pumps and get feedback from the booster pump station

Öz

Bu çalışmada ilk olarak şehir suyu şebeke sisteminde kullanılan su dağıtım bileşenleri araştırılmış ve teknik özellikleri hakkında bilgi verilmiştir. Sonraki bölümlerde, SCADA sistemleri ve temel bileşenleri, bir SCADA sistemi planlaması için gerekli kontrol ekipmanları ve sensörleri ve Uzak Terminal Birimlerin(RTU) standart ve teknik özellikleri açıklanmıştır. Son olarak, bir pompa istasyonu modelinin planlaması yapılmıştır. Bu istasyon dört adet motor-pompa ve birçok algılayıcı donanıma sahiptir. Model içindeki motor-pompalara kumanda etmek ve algılayıcılardan geri besleme bilgilerini almak için mikroişlemci tabanlı bir RTU kullanılmıştır

Anahtar Kelimeler
