Delta Industrial Energy Management and SCADA System Deliver Smart Factory Models

Growing energy costs and increasing awareness of environmental protection have led companies to focus on energy efficiency and energy management solutions. Many factories seek to adopt monitoring and management systems for productivity improvement and fulfill energy saving goals. Delta Industrial Automation (IA) helps customers establish smart green factories with energy conservation solutions for monitoring and managing factory operation and energy consumption.

Delta's highly effective Industrial Energy Management System (IEMS) DIAEnergie and DIAView Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems were successfully introduced to an automation company in central Taiwan to lower its factories carbon emissions, labor costs and improve management efficiency. By adopting Delta's DIAView, the company could receive real-time operating equipment data including power, air-conditioning and cooling water conditions. The monitoring platform is PC-based and seamlessly integrates with Delta's PLC products and I/O modules to facilitate remote monitoring. The benefits of applying DIAView include:

• Improved management efficiency and facility lifespanŸ: Provides real-time on-site facility operation data collection for long-term storage, analysis and fault detection.

Ÿ• Real-time monitoring and alarms: Reduces the equipment shut-down period, lowers factory management cost to increase the effective use of equipment.

• Detailed historical reports and statistical analysis: Provides companies with check-up data such as on-site equipment temperature, flow, pressure, vibration and current status for fine adjustment and optimized productivity conditions.

Ÿ• Robust and efficient alarm management: Sends alarms from SCADA platform via emails or texts to notify about equipment errors.

Delta's DIAEnergie monitors and measures major power consuming equipment with data analysis for abnormal machine actions and improvements in energy-saving. This system can be applied to smart lighting for offices, power regenerative systems for elevators, compressed air systems for energy-savings and more. The advantages of using Delta's DIAEnergie are as follows:

Ÿ• Regulates and improves energy efficiency: Offers energy data analysis and management to lower ineffective energy use.

Ÿ• Monitors and controls important energy consumption: Data analysis of equipment energy consumption by different regions, different time periods, and seasons; records real-time energy performance of factories including water, electricity, and gas.

Ÿ• Measures power consumption to avoid over-limit demand penalties: Provides historical reports and analysis for measurement of power demand and forecast. When power usage exceeds the limit, data reports can be downloaded as reference and prevent payment for over-limit demands.

ŸŸ• Controls power usage and electricity cost: Finds unusual use of energy resources based on energy performance data analysis.

Ÿ• Supports web browsers, provides remote monitoring: Users can receive instant energy consumption data and check abnormal actions via mobiles, tablets, and other electronic devices.

Delta's DIAView and DIAEnergie ensure stable operation, improved system security and an optimized monitoring control system for customers to manage energy consumption issues. Both systems help to achieve energy saving goals and enhance energy management for smart, green factories.
