Water & Wastewater

PLC-controlled pump-station and treatment plant boards with telemetry built in.

Overview

Treatment plants and pump stations demand 24/7 reliability with telemetry on every signal. We deliver integrated MCC and control packages with SCADA hand-off, redundant PLC architectures, and AS 5577 telemetry compliance — approved by every major Australian water authority.

01 · Industry

Approved across the country

Our water-utility switchboard drawings are on the approved-vendor lists at Yarra Valley Water, Sydney Water, Urban Utilities and SA Water. That cuts months out of approval timelines on capital projects, and it means our designs already pass the technical questions before they get asked.

02 · Industry

Telemetry to the standard

AS 5577 telemetry compliance isn't optional in this sector. We ship pump-station boards with the full telemetry stack — RTU, modem, antenna, surge protection, lightning strike — pre-wired and tested. Plug into your SCADA and it talks.

Yes. We hold approved-vendor status with major Australian water utilities. Our pump-station and treatment plant drawings are pre-reviewed against their technical standards.

We deliver the board pre-tagged and pre-tested against your SCADA. We work closely with the major water-sector SCADA integrators and can host tag-mapping FATs in our factory.
