SICAM 8 - Use cases
Remote control and automate – along the entire energy supply chain
-
Application hydropower connection
Application
Turbine controls, sequence controls or switch interlocks with the aid of the integrated logic functions
Processing and bundling of information for control centers and neighboring substations
Customer benefit
The modularity of the platform
Use of international standards, and support of all standard communication protocols, thus enabling the integration of 3rd-party devices
Application
For this application, substation automation is an essential requirement
SICAM A8000 CP-8050 is designed for this task, processes and bundles information for control centers and neighboring substations
Customer benefit
Modular and redundant use
Support of all standard communication protocols, thus also resource utilization of 3rd-party devices possible
Application
Monitoring and control of overhead line or cable distribution grids
- Medium voltage switchgears
- Distribution grid transformers with low-voltage feeders
- Control of transformer tap changers
Customer benefit
- Modular and thus suitable for any application in your distribution grid
- As a compact device with a display for direct visualization of the status messages in the distribution grid station
-
Industry
Application
Supports the on-demand supply, distribution and monitoring of electrical power.
- Energy automation system from the power supplier's feed-in to the low-voltage distribution level
Customer benefit
- Integrated system with a wide range of communication options
- Monitors and controls the power supply independently and thus avoid potential risks for man and machine
-
Railway power supply
Application
Automation of railway power supply starting with the control system, through protection to communication.
Customer benefit
- Quick and safe overview of the operating status of the plant
- Detailed fault message output and dynamic substation overview
- Flexibly adaptable and expandable to the plant volume
-
Wind and solar parks
Application
As a bidirectional link between the grid control center and wind or solar farms
- Information about e.g. the current power flow to the grid control center
- Operation of your feed-in controller from the grid control center
Customer benefit
- Wireless connection with integrated GPRS modem
- Small, modular and expandable system specifically for your needs
- Fulfils high Cybersecurity requirements
-
Data node / Gateway
Application
Communication gateway for RTU networks based on completely different network and communication protocols.
Customer benefit
- RTU as gateway with protocol conversion and network separation between process and visualization level
- Compression of data and separate routing of the desired information to the target system
- High security through integrated IT security solutions
