This aids in troubleshooting the cause of trips and potential trips • Remote equipment monitoring allows for preventative maintenance. Problems can be evaluated centrally, allowing technicians to come properly equipped to the remote site Unsurpassed Availability • Preferred PCC-III, PWC, FSC, and BMU controllers provide continued plant operation in the event of a Control Network and/or SCADA shutdown • Multiple SCADA Servers provide continued operation in the Central Control Room in the event of a SCADA shutdown • Dedicated boiler controllers provide continued remote and local operation of unaffected boilers in the event of a single controller shutdown Lower Installation and Commissioning Cost • Controller Tuning Screens and Historical Trending tools help speed commissioning • Controllers and I/O wiring are located near the equipment to save installation cost SCADA/Flex is a Robust Plant Optimizing Solution The ability to monitor and control plant-wide processes from a single location, while also collecting and sharing real-time plant data, has become an invaluable tool for improving the operation of boiler plant equipment. Plant owners around the country have successfully turned to SCADA/ Flex from Preferred Instruments. SCADA/Flex helps you turn plant operating data into information, and information into dramatically improved performance. Overview Graphics Overview graphics are provided to match the specifics of your plant. Each screen intuitively displays critical information for quick and easy operation. “Soft buttons” provide an intuitive “point and click” interface for navigating between screens, acknowledging alarms, and controlling equipment. SCADA/FLEX DISTRIBUTED CONTROL Overview SCADA/Flex Offers: • Process visualization (HMI) • Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) • Local or remote operating modes • Historical Trending • Alarming, alarm management and printing • Report Generation and Printing (Option ‘-R’) • High performance networking (Ethernet & Fiber Optic optional) • Interface to Fireye and Honeywell Flame Safeguards (optional) Quanta-Flame Flame Safeguards • Development Software allows continued development on site (Option ‘-DS’) Open Architecture for Third Party Applications (optional) SCADA/Flex can act as an OPC Server to any standard OPC Client. Alternatively, SCADA/Flex can act as an OPC Client to any standard OPC Server. SCADA/Flex leverages the ODBC Application Programming Interface (API), adding the capability to collect and write real-time secure electronic records to one or more relational databases. Data can easily be moved between a relational database and the SCADA/ Flex process database. Historical Trending Multi-colored strip charts display of any group of eight variables for any length of time. The Zoom feature and a data cursor allow precise readout and comparison of any event. Data may be placed on a server or flash drive for long- term storage and can be reloaded at any time for analysis. SCADA/Flex Workstation
