automation stage mainly focuses on automation control, aiming to optimize production processes and improve production efficiency; the informatization stage is mainly to carry out informatization construction of infrastructure; the intelligent stage is to comprehensively integrate multi-dimensional data and establish a data center and operation center.

Current status and core transformation of the water industry and its transformation

In recent years, with the rapid development and in-depth application of new round of information technologies such as cloud computing , big data, Internet of Things, intelligent sensing, and artificial intelligence , the work of water has gradually moved towards digitalization and intelligence, and some leading enterprises have entered the third stage of digital transformation - the intelligent stage.

However, at present, the intelligent upgrade of my country's water industry is mostly focused on the improvement of "soft power" such as data visualization platforms. At the "intelligent application" that needs to be combined with intelligent hardware - hard power, it involves less, or mostly in the layout and climbing stage.

Therefore, the current situation of smart water affairs in my country is "soft" and insufficient hard power. The data loss and low quality caused by the incomplete construction of smart hardware (basic information facilities) will affect and limit the application effect of the software platform.

At the ICA (instrument, instrumentation and automation) conference held by IWA International Water Association (the world's top professional water industry organization), experts and scholars from all walks of life also pointed out that one of the important challenges facing domestic smart water affairs is the lack of smart hardware strength and has not kept up with the speed of software platform upgrade and transformation.

How to embed smart hardware that uses advanced sensor technology and Internet of Things technology into various parts of the water business system to enhance the "hard power" of digital transformation in the water industry?

As an in-depth participant in the digital transformation of the water industry and an active promoter of "smart water affairs". Shenzhen Zhongdian Power Technology Co., Ltd. (referred to as "CET Zhongdian Technology") fully meets customer needs and launches iSmartRTU series remote terminal unit + smart water platform solution.

iSmartRTU (smart hardware) can be used for water equipment status monitoring and control, and accurately upload accurate on-site business data to the smart water platform (integrated software platform). Through a comprehensive hardware + software solution, massive data can be collected in a timely manner, analyzed and processed in real time, obtained valuable information, and assisted in smart decision-making.

As the core unit of CET's comprehensive smart water service solution, iSmartRTU is a representative product to enhance "hard power". The following are the specific application scenarios of the iSmartRTU series remote terminal units in smart water service:

(1) Reduce the loss of pipe bursting and leakage accidents - Water supply pipeline network monitoring

It is understood that the old water supply pipeline network in Shanghai currently has about 9,000 kilometers, and the service life of some network management has exceeded 50 years. In the maintenance and management of water supply pipelines, especially old water supply network pipe management, pipe bursting and leakage accidents occur frequently. Because the pipelines are complex and buried deep underground, such accidents are often difficult to detect in advance, resulting in serious consequences.

Therefore, water leakage point detection and continuous maintenance are important means to reduce leakage. How to collect status information from all parts of the pipeline network in real time and locate the fault point as soon as possible? The solution to

CET: combines the pipeline network layout of each project site, and configures an iSmartRTU remote terminal unit at each important monitoring point to connect to various sensors or intelligent monitoring equipment on site. Collect information on pressure, flow, operating status, water quality status of each pipeline, upload it to the data center through 4G, and promptly detect equipment failures.

At the same time, iSmartRTU can realize edge calculation functions such as logic programming, I/O linkage, formula calculation, etc., and can run separately from the network to control the valve; it also supports setting the pressure constant value of each control point. After the pressure is below the fixed value, the valve can be automatically closed and alarm information is reported to the data center to reduce the losses of bursting pipes and leakage. In addition, iSmartRTU's NAT function can provide 4G routing channels for cameras that deploy control points, and the pipeline monitoring system saves a 4G router and reduces deployment costs.

(2) Smart hardware facilities upgrade-pump station comprehensive automation system

iSmartRTU has a diverse network structure, which can form a CET smart water service-pump station comprehensive automation system with other CET hardware products. The system integrates sensor technology, automation control technology, wireless communication technology, computer and network technology, and can automatically monitor and manage the pump station to enhance the "hard power" of smart water service.

In this application scenario, iSmartRTU can collect data from 4~20mA analog equipment such as liquid level meter through the AI ​​interface; realize data acquisition through the DI/DO/AO interface and control equipment such as electric valve , pump station motors, etc.; collect data information such as comprehensive guarantee and electricity meter through the RS-485 communication method. The collected information can be uploaded to the smart water pump station system through 4G or Ethernet, and the control commands issued by the system can be executed. The logic programming function of

iSmartRTU can realize on-site unit opening and shutdown control, electric valve opening and closing angle control, control and linkage information support upload to the pump station system, and the system platform and iSmartRTU work together to consolidate the foundation of the construction of basic information facilities for smart water affairs.

or above is a detailed description of the two application scenarios of iSmartRTU water industry. It is also widely used in rural sewage treatment, sewage discharge pipeline monitoring and other scenarios. It can cooperate with the CET smart water platform to provide customers with a comprehensive solution that simultaneously improves " hard power" + "soft power ", comprehensively integrates the data of various water business systems, and establishes a digital twin visual data center.
