The Interscada system was designed for the purpose of allowing companies to do more with less when it comes to asset management.  Careful thought and planning was conducted to offer a system that would allow customers to justify the cost of an Interscada system.  Most importantly we listened to the wants and needs of our customers to include features that will allow you to go to management with clear and concise cost saving measures.     

Interscada:  Based on change and the latest trends in industry.

A more holistic approach.

With 8 spectral, 16 analog, and 4 digital inputs from one DAQ, Interscada enables users to broaden the scope beyond vibration and monitor system interaction conditions such as pressures, flows, and temperatures.   

Detecting compromising process conditions that cause vibration allows personnel to correct these conditions before secondary failure occurs, leading to a preventative maintenance regime.

Integrates with OPC compliant HMIs like Wonderware and Intellution.

32 Input/Outputs per DAQ, including 8 that deliver spectral vibration data to your HMI.

Changes in industry leading to the downsizing of cost centers like maintenance is causing more companies to attempt to do more with less.  The latest trend is to integrate more machine condition data with process data, and delivering it to plant Human Machine Interface (HMI) systems like Wonderware or Intellution. This enables operators to become more involved and take ownership in asset management.  Operators can now see how process conditions lead to asset performance, thus getting a more holistic view of asset management.   

Interscada delivers 8 channels of vibration or acoustic spectral data, 16 channels of analog 4-20ma inputs, 4 digital inputs, as well as 4 digital and 4 analog outputs.  The data is transmitted continuously or in time intervals over plant Ethernets or over a license free, wireless radio network provided by Interscada.  Immediate savings are realized by removing data collectors from a route and by eliminating the cost of wire.  The data is delivered to an HMI, either provided by Interscada, or output to an OPC server so that plants can pull data into their existing HMI. 

Based on the latest predictive maintenance techniques. 

The latest techniques that enable preventative maintenance have been integrated into the Interscada system.  Monitoring lubrication effectiveness through acoustics and condensation monitors is available through special sensors.  But Interscada goes beyond simple data collection tasks.  It is also an analyzer.  Most process data must be factored into formulas to determine asset hydraulic condition data.  Interscada provides up to 8 calculations per DAQ, including the ability to load asset performance curves and monitor points such as pump net positive suction head NPSH, and best efficiency points BEP.  This feature also allows customers to replace expensive meters, such as flowmeters, with power monitors.  Flow is referenced from the performance curve in a linear relationship with true power.
