SENECA – Products and solutions for water treatment
Tue. May 21st, 2024

SENECA offers one of the broadest portfolios on the market: products related to air conditioning and electrical signal protection, remote control, data acquisition, consumption analysis and energy efficiency.

In the integral water cycle, SENECA instrumentation has an almost universal application, from the remote management of extraction and pumping stations to the control of lifting and treatment plants and the supervision of distribution networks, booster wells, reservoirs, booster plants and piezometric towers. SENECA control and communication hardware easily integrates with systems from other Italian and international manufacturers.

Surge protections

Surge protections are essential to protect electrical systems and equipment against transient and impulsive surges caused by atmospheric phenomena and electrical maneuvers.

SENECA’s S400 series includes surge protectors for computer and communication networks with extremely high transmission speeds and leakage capacities; protectors for control, measurement and regulation systems that can be used in binary circuits; and type 2 and type 3 dischargers for industrial power systems.

SENECA isolators and converters

Offers a wide range of electrical and electronic interfaces, signal transmitters and control unit components. Available in multiple power standards, signal converters meet common interface and conditioning needs by galvanically isolating electrical and process signals.

The electrical protection of the automation and remote control system is ensured by ad hoc technologies that meet the standards. In particular, the prevention of disturbances, failures, overvoltages and over currents is guaranteed to circuits that include sensors, actuators, drives, inverters or emergency power systems.

Digital indicators

For all display needs SENECA offers the S Series, a family of high-brightness, high-precision LED digital indicators for a wide range of measurement tasks and optimized installation in the control cabinet. Present in multiple power formats, input types and displays, the indicators – totalizers also perform advanced alarm management, threshold management and data relay functions.

In the water cycle, the instrumentation oriented towards the panel allows the visualization of pressures, flows, levels and electrical consumption, the calculation of totalized values, the management of the pulse inputs of the meters and the retransmission of signals to the PLCs.

Energy efficiency instruments

SENECA’s proposal for energy efficiency and electrical measurements includes consumption monitoring systems such as Modbus/ethernet multifunction network analyzers with web server, Rogowski sensor and harmonic analysis, and energy meters with Modbus/Ethernet/M-BUS protocols also available with MID certification.

SENECA also provides a complete series of AC/DC current transformers with patented magnetic or Hall-effect measurement principle and standard modular converters for electrical quantities.

Data acquisition

For the management of the integral water cycle, SENECA offers modular hardware platforms (remote I/O systems with ModBUS RTU and TCP-IP protocol) or integrated on board controllers, data loggers and RTUs with the help of easy-to-use software for data recording.

Typical application examples are digital alarm management and pulse counting of energy meters, flow meters, meters, volumetric flow systems, oxygen, etc. Data acquisition I/O modules can also be used as contacts for thresholds, thermal, drives and as open collector outputs for signaling and actuation of pumps and motors.

SENECA pump automation solutions

For water treatment plant automation are based on recognized standards (e.g. IEC 61131), dedicated libraries and technological innovations. They are able to increase the energy efficiency, productivity and reliability of equipment and plants of all sizes.

In particular, S6001 Pump Controller is a controller for pumping systems and pressurization units capable of managing 2 to 6 pumps (with possible expansion I/O modules), with constant flow control, level and pressure, and up to 1 inverter in exchange between pumps.

Datalogger and alarm  management

SENECA remote alarm and data logging devices are designed to remotely manage, monitor and implement small automations. With any mobile device or smartphone, it is possible to control the switching on and off of a technical system, activate a contact, receive a fault report or alarm.

Also available in application-based and cloud-based versions, they represent a solution that can meet the growing needs for data collection, real-time analytics, and integration with IT systems. Such devices come with built-in I/O channels, dedicated programming and visualization software, bus communication support, MQTT protocol, and modem with GNSS/GPS/GLONASS receiver.

Radio modules

Based on its expertise in interface technology, SENECA’s proposal for radio and radio modem modules is one of the key elements of automation and communication systems, particularly in the transport of signals from a few meters to tens of kilometers.

The use of UHF/VHF equipment allows distances of several kilometers to be reached with maximum reliability. It also enables remote control, remote consultation and field device diagnostic functions through point-to-point, multipoint, broadcast and signal repetition connections.

Remote Control and Remote Maintenance

SENECA remote control equipment is a perfect combination of the worlds of remote control and automation. The RTU range includes solutions for small systems, all-in-one solutions that concentrate I/O, control logic and communication system, and devices for special applications (unmanned sites, pumping stations, energy management). The use of compatible platforms and popular technology standards offers users the opportunity to improve the efficiency and quality of their application investments.

SENECA RTUs can be integrated with SENECA hardware (I/O modules, HMI, communication interfaces) and third-party hardware, as well as with the LET’S remote assistance platform. They also provide flexible programming tools and dedicated libraries for remote control.
