Peoria Design-Build SCADA Network Upgrade
Peoria, Arizona
DLT&V was contracted by the City of Peoria to upgrade their SCADA radio network. Phase I of this project included a radio path study and detailed inventory for 62 water and wastewater sites. Phase I also included the development of Transition Plans, describing work and materials necessary to upgrade from serial to Ethernet radios, and re-configuration of the network paths to the new Cluster configuration. Phase I of the project was completed in March 2009. Phase II of the project is comprised of modification to each of the existing RTU’s PLC programs to accommodate a new Ethernet radio, overseeing the relocation of I/O cards to accommodate the PLC’s Ethernet module, and the reconfiguration of former repeater sites. Programming will also include configuration of the Ethernet radios. Programming Services include onsite installation, testing and verification of connectivity. This includes overseeing of contractor's work to include participation in field startup testing, and verification of correct data communication from RTUs to the SCADA. HMI programming consists of all modifications needed to show added information and verification of correct communication of data from existing RTUs to the SCADA. As of August 2009, the design for Phase II was complete and construction was 75% complete.
