Data Logging Control Panels
Data logging is a method of keeping historical
data about your process. Historical information is
important in that it allows the operator to make adjustments that
will either reduce operating costs, or improve overall system
efficiencies.
There are many ways to accumulate and log your
system's historical information. Paper chart recorders are
capable of tracking basic information like pH and flow rates. SCADA systems are capable of tracking an unlimited number of process
variables. Hydro-Flo can supply as basic or sophisticated a
solution as your overall process requires.
For those required to supply a paper copy of
system effluents to your local MSD, paper recorders are still a
necessity. Digital data logging is a more appropriate solution
for system operators wishing to track multiple process parameters.
This information can be logged in a number of formats, stored on
flash memory cards, transferred over Ethernet connections and can be
viewed and plotted in common spreadsheet programs.
This data is important to the operator for the
day to day operation of complex systems, but is also beneficial in
that it can be used to evaluate system performance over an unlimited
span of time. Comparing results months or years in the past
will help you evaluate any changes you make to your process today. |
