ASA-Projekt offers comprehensive solutions for the automation of gas turbine and gas engine power plants. The developed control systems comply with modern energy sector standards and provide deep integration of all key components of the station.
Main features of the Solution:
- Full power plant automation for equipment managing and monitoring.
- Integration with relay protection and automation devices REX615, RET650, REB670 (data polling, structuring, and control).
- The “heart” of the system is the modular SICAM A8000 remote terminal, which collects signals and communicates with dispatch centers.
- Data transfer via IEC 60870-5-104 protocol through two independent communication channels.
- Flexible SCADA system visualization with real-time display of operating modes, alarms, and switchgear positions.
Architectural highlights of power plant control system
The system is built on a modular principle. All field devices (relay protection terminals, measuring instruments, sensors) are connected to the central control cabinet via fiber optic lines and Ethernet. Built-in time synchronization over NTP is implemented using time servers such as the Meinberg LANTIME M150. The cabinet is also equipped with an LTE router providing independent internet access.
Functional advantages of power plant automated system
The system implemented by ASA-Projekt engineers ensures:
- Continuous monitoring of equipment status.
- Advanced self-diagnostics at the level of the controller, terminals, and network devices.
- Real-time dispatching and control with the ability to integrate into ERP and MES systems.
- Flexible scalability for power capacities from 5 to 50 MW. The system can be adapted to higher capacities if needed.
Commercial benefits for business
This solution helps reduce operational costs through automatic load management and diagnostic systems. It also minimizes downtime in emergency situations. As a result, it increases operational safety due to the high-speed relay protection system. Integration with energy management and automation platforms further optimizes efficiency and reporting
