TeleController: Pump Controller with Built-in
Telemetry
TDL has
developed Simplex and Duplex TeleControllers with built-in telemetry units which
provide a low cost SCADA solution. These TeleControllers are ideal for
applications such as Grinder Pump Stations, Low Pressure Sewer systems, Onsite
Waste water Treatment systems etc. Traditional SCADA systems (used for the large
wastewater treatment plants or large lift stations) are just too expensive for
many applications. TeleControllers are fully solid-state with integrated pump
control and telemetry functions built in to a single compact unit. Yet, with all
these great features, TeleControllers are very affordable!
If you
are responsible for the operation and maintenance (O & M) of pump stations,
or remote monitoring of unmanned site, you always want to know how each system
is performing. No matter how many systems you are responsible for or how far
away these systems are located, the TeleController allows you to supervise these
systems round-the-clock.
Duplex
TeleController not only controls the operation of two pumps based on the water
level or timer setting, but it also monitors various parameters such as pump
current, line voltage, seal leak, pump run time, water level, etc.
TeleController provides automatic notification to your office on a specific date
and time or as soon as an alarm condition is detected. TeleController shares an
existing telephone line ( residence or commercial buildings) and therefore
there is no extra monthly cost for remotely monitoring your system. Timers of a
remote TeleController can be set from your office. This saves you unnecessary
trips to various sites.
TDL
provides CCS software for your PC free! It is the communication and database
software that allows you to remotely monitor your systems using an ordinary
telephone line. This simple and reliable mode of communication not only
eliminates third party service providers and unnecessary monthly fees, but you
also get proprietary data from your systems sent directly to your office.
Grinder Pump Station using TeleController
Schematic Circuit Diagram
Centralized management of the onsite decentralized systems is made possible
by using TeleController, which not only controls the operation of the pumps but
also communicates with the central office using an existing telephone line on
the site... No Monthly Monitoring Fee!
TeleControllers can be custom configured for controlling various types of
onsite wastewater treatment systems such as re-circulating sand filter,
Biofilter, SBR etc.

from remote TeleControllers and performs data exchange at 2400 baud rate |
| Data Reception |
CCS receives controller's ID, system
related data and updates the database |
| Data Transmission |
Commands are issued to the calling
TeleController to receive new program parameters such as date and time
for the next call, new timer settings, or optional new high level alarm |
| Data Viewing |
Easy to understand user interface for the
viewing of the customer information and all the previously reported
system related data, in a tabular form. |
| Auto Scheduling |
All the TeleControllers on the remote sites
are assigned a report date and time automatically to make sure they do
not report to the CCS at the same time |
| Reporting |
Worksheet is printed for the technician. It
includes the address, details of the alarm condition and the diagnostic
instructions. Report is also printed for the TeleControllers that failed
to call in on a scheduled date and time |
