Southern Flow, Inc. was contracted by PC Construction Company to provide a complete instrumentation and controls solution for the Richland Creek WTP. This system consisted of (8) new PLC control panels complete with Allen-Bradley ControlLogix PLCs with redundant rack power supplies. The redundant fiber optic ring was connected via (8) network IT cabinets that contained the Ethernet switches, patch panels, and UPS battery backups. (25) additional local control panels were provided for local equipment control containing relay logic and operator switches and lights.

The SCADA application was a ground up Archestra System Platform HMI with over 7,000 tags allowing for control and monitoring of not only points in the SFI provided control panels but also via communications to switchgear and other vendor provided control panels.
