Automation, Industrial Controls, SCADA, and other M2M Communications Are Forming the Backbone of Future Infrastructure
While automation and industrial controls have long served oil and gas, M2M technology is expanding into new industries.
The number of connected devices is projected to grow from 6 billion to nearly 75 billion in the coming years.
A few decades ago, only 100,000 such devices existed.
This rapid growth is transforming how industries monitor, control, and optimize operations.
As part of this expansion, the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is steadily evolving into a complex mesh of interconnected systems. These systems include networks, sensors, computers, and controls that can make independent decisions without human input. As a result, the IIoT is paving the way for future M2M networks that incorporate artificial intelligence. In fact, the push to integrate AI into IIoT is already well underway. Energy companies are now partnering with AI specialists to improve operational efficiency and strengthen predictive capabilities.
One of the most critical components of scaling out this network of interconnected industrial devices is power. As the location of these devices continue to expand farther and farther away from places with access to grid power, providing these sensors and control networks with the appropriate remote power system is essential! SunWize has been a leading provider of reliable autonomous power systems for Automation and SCADA businesses for over 25 years! Our Solar, Battery Backup, and Hybrid Power Systems have been installed on all 7 continents and are trusted by leading businesses and governments throughout the world.
Applications
SunWize systems are the ideal solution for companies and entities addressing domestic and global power needs in the areas of Automation & Industrial Controls.
Our highly-experienced solar engineering staff designs rugged power systems to meet your project's specific electrical, logistical, and environmental requirements.
Solar power and batteries can provide a convenient, cost-effective solution to areas without access to the utility power needed to implement telecom systems such as WiFi, SCADA networks, PLC devices, micro controllers, base transceiver stations (BTS), cell phone networks, satellite terminals, and so forth. It can also help maintain telecommunication systems in the event of inclement weather, which is particularly useful for emergency situations.
For example, remote power systems can be used to transmit data from a oil & gas line flow meter and other sensor infrastructure in areas without access to conventional power. It can also be useful in large well pads, mining areas, or other locations where power may not otherwise be cost effective to obtain. Solar power can help maximize the efficiency and minimize the costs of nearly every off-grid power application.
Advantages of Remote Solar Energy
Whether you are powering local SCADA, PLCs, WiFi, data acquisition systems, sensors, or are part of a network of cell towers, you need reliable, cost-effective power. Off-grid solar power can be used in remote locations to minimize the cost of energy while providing reliable power. Our remote power systems provide needed power 24/7. Solar panels provide low-cost electricity while a battery bank provides energy storage for evening and inclement weather. All equipment is housed in NEMA3R outdoor rated enclosures!
Each system is specifically designed to meet your energy needs, with capabilities for OEM integration of customer equipment, voltage converters, power supplies, or any other equipment. With our expertly designed industrial solar power systems, you get the following benefits without needless complications:
- 24/7 power for constant communications needs
- Chargeable battery bank that will provide autonomous power for 5 days
- Cost-effective solar power for remote locations
- System specifically designed for your project’s load requirements
- Completely designed, integrated, and manufactured by SunWize
Solutions
Our Power Ready Systems, Power Stations and Power Online Systems are designed to be operated in the most rugged & demanding industrial applications during even the poorest weather conditions.
Deployed dual hybrid Power Stations to provided required mission-critical power for a base transceiver station (BTS) and microwave in the Mojave Desert.
Deployed several hybrid Power Stations along Rocky Mountains ridgetops to power communications systems into remote areas
Needed to communicate with Wind Farm monitoring equipment, they determined the Power Ready System best fit their challenge.
When a goldmine operator needed power for a leak detection system at a tailings pond. The equipment to be powered consisted of I/O and SCADA radios in a high US desert environment at approximately 5000-6000’ above sea level.
Quotation Process
Our quotation process gives you the opportunity to address your specific project with one of our Sales Representative. Upon completion of our Project-Power System Worksheet, we review your power requirements and provide a quotation for an integrated power system that includes appropriately-sized solar power array, battery bank, control assembly, cost and lead time.
