SCADA mainframe


ControlMan™ Internet cloudSCADA*

Intranet cloudSCADA*


Software ControlMan™ is a ”cloud-calculations” Internet SCADA

service (SaaS), which does not require control room

equipment and local software. It was developed by FF-

Automation and running on secured servers with

24/7/365 access from Internet. It’s main parts are:

• Specific Internet-based SCADA software with web-

page interfaces;

• Communication network (GSM, TETRA, TCP/IP) front-

ends for data exchange;

• Personal web-pages for each customer application,

• Software tools for multi-user access rights

administration.

Access to ControlMan™ service is available from any

computer with Internet / Intranet access.

AutoLog® in oil and gas industry

AutoLog® solution


Oil and gas wellheads and pumps may be remotely

controlled and their parameters may be instantly monitored

using modern FF-Automation’s special RTUs.

Flexible PLC algorithms allow to perform smart motor

controls, volume and performance measurements as well

as taking data from additional sensors.

High physical protection IP levels, robust construction and

wide working temperature range are key reasons for long

lasting performance and low mainteneca cost of AutoLog®

RTUs

Tanks and storages





AutoLog® solution


Remote storages monitoring is now extremely easy to

bring into Internet using AutoLog® Wireless Sensor

Network turnkey solution.

Tree-shaped network structure, distributed and auto-repair

data transfer, open GSM / GPRS and Internet as a data

acquisition media – all those are win-win attributes of tank

monitoring system.

With AutoLog® WSN it is possible to use various types of

level sensors, switches and control devices.

ControlMan™ cloudSCADA allows users to get timely

information about storages and alarms using any computer

with Internet access in 24/7/365 mode.

Tanks and storages





AutoLog® solution


Oil and gas transportation and distribution devices

parameters and alarms can be remotely collected and

received with AutoLog® RTUs and WSN sensors.

Distributed flexible architecture and easy data access give

substantial benefits during system lifetime.

Various data transferring media allows both integration into

existing structures and building of modern reliable

networks based on open standards.

Possibility to work with battery for years can enlarge

installation areas and allows get measurements from hard-

to-reach places.

AutoLog® solution


Street lightning can give substantial savings in electricity

consumption and maintenance costs when FF-Automation’s

SaveLight™ is installed and running.

By well tuned and optimized switching and lamps dimming

mechanism, SaveLight™ can save up tp 35% of energy. Remote

monitoring and measurements allow to save a lot of human and

time resources for bulb’s changing and repairs. All street lightning

system parameters are timely seen from Internet using FF-

Automation’s cloudSCADA ControlMan™ service from any

computer in 24/7/365 mode.

Several installation variants and equipment sets make possible to

build a system at any level of complexity. Expansion is almost

unlimited and proved lamps number is over 500 000.

SaveLight™ implementation significantly reduces transformer

substation stress load.




Energy & efficiency

AutoLog® in energy control and generation

AutoLog® solution


Generators, being often installed at hard-to-reach places

like communication nodes, nevertheless, demand timely

received alarms and controls to support critical systems

with power.

FF-Automation’s AutoLog® RTUs have all needed to

perform both automatic and manual switching, taking

power lines and fuel tank measurements, battery charging

and other auxillary functions.

RTUs have robust construction, variety of measurements,

sensors and control tools. Data transfer may be performed

using open or private networks to ba available from any

computer using ControlMan™ cloudSCADA or traditional

SCADA servers and control rooms.




Energy & efficiency


AutoLog® solution


Having remote control of clectricity power lines and

substations may be extremely profitable for saving

maintenance costs and reducing accident’s consequences.

Instant power line voltage and current measurements give

user full picture of object situation and allow to make right

decisions to avoid serious damages. Also automated

actions can be taken according to pre-programmed

algorithms.

Battery backup system can support RTU functions and

even switching controls in black-out periods.

Even using of widespreaded networks or secured private

ones, ControlMan™ supplies a highest level of data and

control protection for users.




Energy & efficiency


AutoLog® solution


Such critical facilities like water pump stations or water

treatment plants demands extremely reliable and functional

control methods. FF-Automation has developed and supplied

many projects for such applications with special RTUs and

programs.

Having all main functionalities, solutions for water stations

may have comlex algoritms for automated control of pumps,

alarming and reservoir measurements.

AutoLog® equipment and ControlMan™ flexibility make

possible to build full range of systems from simple 1..2 pumps

up to complex pumping cascades and treatment processes.

Ready solution schemes and views make implementation fast

and profitable.




Water & environment

AutoLog® in water industry and environment

AutoLog® solution


Having a remote monitoring of such dangerous objects like

garbage places and wastewater plants is extremely important

for environment and public safety.

Combining in one system both modern and well proved

technologies gives high functionality level and perfect

reliability which are the key points for success.

Underground water measurements can be taken with various

sensors and data transferred to user over any available

networks. With ControlMan™ cloudSCADA it is possible to

see all units directly from any computer with Internet access.

Important alarms may be very useful for timely reactions to

accidents.

WSN technology allows take distributed measuremnts from

large areas with low roll-out system cost.




Water & environment


AutoLog® solution


Water quality measurements, flood hazard warnings, pollution

and wheather monitoring – all those importanat tasks may be

easyly performed using specially desighned AutoLog®

WaterMan™ turnkey solution with RTUs, set of wireless

sensors and software application.

Level, pH, Redox, Temperature, Dissolved oxygen,

connectitvity, turbidity, etc., all data about water resources

may be visible directly from Internet, alarms immediately can

be sent to dedicated personnel.

Using wireless sensors it is possible to build a geographically

widened networks with distributed measurement collection.

Tree-shaped structure allows to use several RTUs for

transferring data to central control room.
