GSP-1620 Modem Overview
2-8 80-99240-1 Rev. D
Water Treatment Plants
For water treatment plants, a SCADA application using the
GSP-1620 modem could perform many tasks, for example:
• Monitor water flow along pipelines and achieve better
regulation of water pressure, thereby reducing
unnecessary consumption and eliminating water loss.
• Reduce maintenance costs by detecting lift station
failures.
• Monitor waterways and canals.
• Transmit the status of snowpack gauges, flow rates, and
spillway conditions back to the control center to help
regulate water flow in dam operations.
• Send back images taken by a remote camera of the river
or spillway conditions to provide visual input along with
the flow rate data.
• Set up automatic control systems on pumping stations,
water towers, storage tanks and lift stations.
• Keep operations going smoothly in chemical tank
monitoring. Don’t pay for unnecessary inventory
chemicals.
• Monitor tanks above and below ground for process
variables such as pressure, temperature, and pH.
