Automation Transformation of Large Pumping Station Equipment Based on PLC
In order to achieve unmanned operation of large-scale pumping station and improve the reliability and safety of pumping station equipment management,a survey was conducted on the equipment and automation status of a large-scale pumping station with a water supply capacity of 500 000 tons/day in operation at a certain factory.To address the issues identified through survey,the equipment and automation upgrade were carried out,mainly including improvements to high-voltage distribution equipment,valve equipment,security monitoring equipment,instrumentation,and automatic control.After the renovation,the key equipment parameters and online monitoring data were connected to the configuration software and information platform through programmable logic controllers(PLCs)and intelligent collection terminal modules,achieving remote control and unmanned operation of the pumping station,and comprehensive real-time monitoring of the operating conditions of the pumping station equipment.The results show that the renovated pumping station has achieved automated,intelligence,and intelligent operation and management,improved equipment operation and management efficiency and automation management level,and reduced labor and management operating costs.
