SCADA System Summary
Functional System Description
General Information
The Iicensed radio communication Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition(SCADA)
system described herein was supplied and installed to enable the City of Lake Elmo to
monitor and control the city's water supply and distribution system as well as monitor the
wastewater lift:pump station(s)from a"Master"location.
The system provides:
• Well pump,chemical feed pump and hydropneumatic tank air add(vent control
• Monitoring of the:
➢ control& operation of the well and chemical feed pumps
➢ discharge flow rate of each well pump
➢ level in the elevated water storage towers
➢ water level in the well No.2
➢ hydropneumatic tank level &pressure
➢ number of starts and the run time for each pump(well&wastewater lift
pump)
➢ radio communication failure counts between the"Master"location and the
well/tower&lift station locations
® Alarm annunciation and logging(with date/time stamp)for each specific system
alarm condition
• Data logging and trend displays for the elevated water storage tower levels,the
well No.2 water level, the hydropneumatic tank water level, the well pump
discharge flow rates and the radio communication failures
A"Master"polling system panel identified as"CPPW",is provided at the Public Works
Building/City Maintenance Garage.The CPPW panel contains a programmable logic
controller(PLC)that communicates via fiber optic cable to panel CPWT2 that is installed
in the base of the Water Tower 2.
Panel CPWT2 communicates with the remote system sites(CPWI, CPW2&CPLSI)via
licensed radio transceivers at each location. SCADA system panels are provided at the
following sites in the City:
Site Parcel
Public Works Building CP?W
Elevated Water Tower No,2 CPWT2
Well No. 1 /Elevated Water Tower No. I RTU*CPWI
Well No, 2 RTU* CPW2

SCADA system "Master"at the City Public Works Building
The SCADA system equipment that is located at the Public Works Building consists of
the following items:
A. SCADA Panel-CPPW
The SCADA panel CPPW is installed in the Electrical Room of the Public
Works building. This panel includes a PLC and associated input/output
(1/0)modules. This panel provides Ethernet communication with the PC in
the Superintendent's Office and provides fiber optic communication with
Panel CPWT2 as previously mentioned. SCADA communication software
automatically interrogates(polls)the remote system sites to provide
automatic system control and alarm/status monitoring.
B. Graphical User Interfacel-UI)
The GUI is a PC-based system installed in the Superintendent's Office.A.
color-graphic monitor is provided for display of the water distribution system
and wastewater pump station parameters included in the SCADA System.
The graphic screen displays provide real-time system control, status and
alarm information.
C Fiber Optic Pullboa and Patch Panel
Fiber optic pullbox and patch panels are installed in the Electrical Room.
The GUI includes a security system to prevent unauthorized operator set-point and
SCADA system parameter manipulation.Password access is required for control changes
and for operator reset of pump run times and pump start counters.All screens are
available for viewing without security access.
The operator interface is programmed to provide graphic display of all system
parameters. Each screen.includes a link on the left side of the display to allow navigation
to the other system screens.
Water Tower No.2 Data Communication panel-CPWT2
The SCADA system's master radio transceiver is installed in panel CPWT2. The panel is
installed in the base of the Water Tower 2. This panel communicates with the RTU site
locations via its radio transceiver and an Omni-directional antenna installed at the top of
Water Tower 2.The panel also includes fiber optic modules that communicate all system
information received by radio as well as the locally sensed tower No.2 level& 120VAC
input power failure to panel CPPW via fiber cable.
A tower head pressure sensing level transmitter provides a 4-20 maDC level linearized
input signal to CPWT2. The tower level signal is used in the SCADA system water
storage,pump control and abnormal level alarm algorithms. CPWT2 includes a door
mounted digital meter that displays the water level in the storage bowl of Water Tower 2.

System information specific to panel CPWT2 displayed on the SCADA.Master GLII
includes:
® Water tower No.2 bowl storage level(in feet and tenths of feet)
® Tower No.2 level responsive well pump control set-points
® Tower abnormal level alarm set-points
® Tower high and low level alarms
Fiber communication failure
• Radio communication failure
® 120 VAC incoming power failure
Well No.1 RTU Panel-CP WI
Radio RTU CPW 1,located at Well House No.1,has an integral PLC that
provides pump start/stop control,station alarm&monitoring as well as
Tower No. I water level radio transmission to panel.CPWT2.
The SCADA system's well pump No.I "pump required"signal activates a
PLC output contact that is wired to the"Auto"input of the well pump motor
starter's Hand-Off-Auto selector switch.pilot control circuit.An auxiliary
contact installed on the pump's motor starter provides"Well Pump Running"
status feedback to the PLC/RTU.
A head pressure sensing tower level transmitter provides a 4-20maDC
analog input signal to the PLC/RTU.A well pump discharge flow meter
provides a 4-20maDC analog input signal to the PLC/RTU.
Well Pump No.I /Tower No. I Alarm/Status/Control functionality
provided on the SCADA Master GUI includes:
• Water tower bowl storage level(in feet and tenths of feet)
Tower level responsive well pump control set-points
