Cathodic Protection Remote Monitoring and Control Solution
Corrosion is a leading cause of premature failure in metallic structures which makes Cathodic Protection the most important corrosion control method. CIMCON’s CPSCANET – world’s first GSM based wireless CP SCADA System – has been designed to eliminate the flaws of the traditional CP systems and effectively extend the life of steel structures.
CPSCANET Advantage
Seamless functioning
Key features
Advantages
Real time online monitoring and control of all key CP parameters to ensure optimal performance
Eliminates lengthy and error-prone traditional method of manually recording the PSP’s at test stations
Monitor and control the CP system from virtually anywhere in the world.
- Intelligent Remote Terminal Units (iRTUs) distributed throughout the plant, interfaced with individual Transformer Rectifier (TR) units.
- All iRTUs are networked using a single or hybrid mix of communication systems and connected to a central network of computers running CPSCANET.
- With web based SCADA software, users can monitor multiple fields simultaneously from virtually anywhere in the world.
- System offers true synchronized OFF potential measurement using GPS-based time synchronization for all geographically distributed TRs.
- Configurable I/O points in iRTU accommodate a wide variety of input signals as well as outputs.
- Monitors time-stamped data, faults from RTU
- Remote configuration of RTU parameters for criteria compliance tests as per NACE standards
- Interface for multichannel analog data logging for multiple TR interface
- High impedance channels for true measurements of Pipe-to-Soil Potentials
- GPS-based time synchronization
- User-programmable MS Excel spreadsheet report generator software
- SCADA communication via wired/ wireless communication network
