Our management system is an intelligent control and monitoring system that enables you to safely and conveniently control your installation systems. Whether for power engineering or the range of switchboard control, whatever you need and wherever you are: our management system will be the connecting link. A host computer, the so-called "control centre" gathers up all data from where you can e.g. supervise, control, regulate, synchronize, collect, store or select many other functions. In short: you will have things under control any time you want and even worldwide.

Thinking in terms of application and cost efficiency, the best possible solutions have been achieved and put into practice for you with our management system. Indicated below, a few examples for application possibilities in the power engineering field.

Summary of all relevant switch gear elements

  • Indication of all switch positions and important measuring values.
  • Marking, i.e. topological coloring of grid sections carrying the same voltage.
  • Direct access to remote control switches with integrated intelligent interlocking function.
  • Implementation of protective devices including logging of all alarm and measuring values in compliance with IEC 60870-5.
  • Parameter setting of protection devices from remote.

Overview of peripheral devices and counter administration

  • Display of the various system components.
  • Information on the auxiliary equipment's current state.
  • Plant specific programming of process data.
  • Digital recording and storage of all operation relevant meters (as an option, integration into a SQL data base) as well as their export to MS-Office tools.

Visualization of switch gear components on bay level

  • Continuous engineering and programming.
  • Integration of the bay level's components into the management system.
  • Automatic transfer of modified configuration or alarm texts on bay level to the management system.

Supervision

  • Comfortable and extensive recording of alarm data in time intervals of 10 ms, time stamp according to GPS or external reference signal.
  • Synchronous recording and storage of all alarms from the connected PLC/IPC.
  • Filter functions, allowing differentiated view on various components.
  • Possibility to transmit messages by email, SMS or pager.
  • Possibility to redundantly record and archive data.

Histograms

  • Continuous detection and storage of all analogue values on the management system's hard disk.
  • Facilities to display stored data in form of varicolored histograms.
  • Data update (0.1 - 10.0 seconds), each according to time or event.
  • Simultaneous display of up to 8 measured values for the period of the past 10 minutes until up to 24 hours.

Load Management

  • Control and instrumentation technology, interconnecting several power plants to one overall system:
        - Isolated operation: pre-adjusted mains voltage and mains frequency are centrally controlled
        - Mains parallel operation: the adjusted power is fed into the grid at a defined point of supply.
  • Start/stop of the machines, reliant on priority or number of operating hours.
  • Definition of minimum-, nominal and maximum power with admissible time frames.

Security

  • Recognition of the different system operators.
  • Protection from faulty operation, operation traceability (e.g. acknowledgement of alarms) thanks to access level authorization.

... how to keep things under control !!!
Our management systems allow you to either select cyclic or event-oriented servicing. This way, the selected service intervals will be enriched by your own experiences and down-times can be reduced to a minimum. Using standardized industrial network technologies (CAN, Ethernet ….), we significantly contribute to securing the future reliability of your installations and can even offer a worldwide overview on the state of your plants via the internet. For all components, manufacturer default data can be stored and implemented into the servicing plan. This way, for example, order -, telephone and spare part numbers will be immediately available without tedious need for search. The electronic log file registers person, time and type of maintenance work.
