Product catalog summary
Overview
SENECA offers a comprehensive range of RTUs and telemetry solutions designed for utilities, energy, and infrastructure applications. These solutions integrate telecontrol and automation, providing options for small systems and specialized applications such as unattended sites and energy management. Compatibility with various platforms and standards enhances operational efficiency and investment quality.
Web-Based Remote Monitoring and Telemetry
Remote control via the Internet enables visualization, alarm reporting, and data analysis using technologies like 2G/3G+/4G and DDNS. The system supports SCADA integration and offers continuous connectivity through VPNs.
Intranet/APN-Based Telemetry
Utilizes private APN systems with static IP addresses for secure remote control, supporting SCADA integration and data management.
IoT/Cloud Monitoring
SENECA Cloud facilitates data centralization and remote management, supporting multi-user supervision and integration with energy management applications.
Remote Assistance
Offers on-demand point-to-point communication for remote assistance, requiring static or DynDNS addresses.
Key Functions
  • Monitoring and Telecontrol of Power Grids: Supports IEC 60870-5-101, IEC 61850, and ModBUS protocols for data acquisition and system integration.
  • Data Acquisition: Features include multi-standard communication, data logging, and real-time communication with SCADA platforms.
  • Pumps and Booster Pressurization Control: Provides real-time control, failure warnings, and event-based actions.
  • Alarm Management: Includes real-time alerts, event analysis, and command transmission via SMS, email, or app.
  • Programming and Software Libraries: Supports SoftPLC Straton IEC 61131, email/SMS alerts, and data logging.
  • IoT/VPN Platforms: Enables centralized supervision, predictive maintenance, and remote software updates.
  • Energy Management: RTUs support IEC protocols for communication in electrical power systems.

PROGRAMMING AND SOFTWARE LIBRARIES Remote control via Internet offers remote visualization services, alarm reporting, remote management plants, supervision, data collection and analysis, exploiting Internet, 2G / 3G+ / 4G standard and DDNS technology. MULTISTANDARD COMMUNICATION DATA ACQUISITION In Telecontrol / Single LAN mode (Always ON connection) VPN BOX works like a network server which is assigned a static public IP. Communication is simultaneous and always active between all remote sites and the server, as well with the different subnets that are part of the overall system. In Remote Assistance / Point-To-Point mode (ON Demand connection) VPN BOX works as a concentrator and it provides a pointto-point communication between PCs (or device mobile) and machine / plant. It also requires the assignment of a static and public IP or possibly a DynDNS address. MONITORING AND TELECONTROL OF POWER GRIDS Z-LOGGER • Sending commands via SMS • Calculation of the flow rate • Configuration through 7 “HMI touchscreen • Adjustment, start-up, shutdown and acceleration • Water hammer suppression • Lifetime extension of the pumps • Pressures, levels, flows regulation Energy Management • RTUs for transmission and distribution electrical power systems • IEC protocol 61850 availabilty for communication between intelligent electronic devices at electrical substations • IEC 60870-101/104 availability for sending basic telecontrol messages between a central telecontrol station and telecontrol outstations SENECA Cloud - IoT solution allows data centralization, remote connections management, multi-user custom supervision pages editing. SENECA controllers for Energy Management applications can work as IEC 61850 Servers, ModBUS-RTU - ModBUS TCP conversion systems, devices enabling the creation of VPNs and pointto-point tunnels.
