FLEXIBILE COMMUNICATION
Your Sensaphone SCADA 3000 RTU’s are designed to communicate with the host PC by standard data radio, ordinary phone lines, or a mix of both. Even cellular phone communications are possible with an adapter.

BUILT-IN ALARM NOTIFICATION
Effectively managing industrial environments means immediate notification in case of problems. Delays and down time can cost millions of dollars.

However, with most control systems, the alarming functions require you to purchase third party hardware and/or software, where various incompatibilities may not be obvious until it’s too late. The Sensaphone SCADA 3000 includes a complete set of communications options and capabilities.

Whether you are using phone lines or radios, the Sensaphone SCADA 3000 system can report alarms using custom voice, numeric pagers, alphanumeric pagers, fax, and even e-mail.

POWERFUL I/O WITH EXPANSION
Standard on each Sensaphone SCADA 3000 are 16 universal inputs and 8 relay outputs. The inputs can accept contact closures, 4-20mA transducers, 0-5 Volt sensors, and even thermistors.

As you grow and bring new machinery or facilities on-line, the Sensaphone SCADA 3000 can expand to meet your needs. Expansion modules are available to add specialized inputs such as thermocouples or high speed pulse counters, or even additional universal inputs.

Outputs can be expanded to add more relay channels, or 4-20mA analog output channels. You can add modules to the Sensaphone SCADA 3000 and keep expanding up to a total of 144 I/O points. With the wide variety of I/O types available to be used directly with the RTU, buying costly signal conditioners is a thing of the past!

BUILT-IN DATA LOGGING
Fully programmable time-stamped data is not only standard, but it includes several unique options. Sensaphone SCADA 3000 not only internally logs and stores data, it produces reports via phone modem directly to your main computer or even a fax machine.

Radio network applications will have data logging performed from within the main computer’s free software.

POWERFUL PROGRAMMING FEATURES

Ladder Programming
Ladder Logic is the most easily understood and usable control language in use today. The Sensaphone SCADA 3000 makes it even easier. A full set of standard ladder instructions are built in along with counters, timers, and even analog capability.

There is no additional programming software to buy. The free software package comes complete with a Windows®-based draganddrop ladder editor that significantly reduces your set up time.

C-Programming
The Sensaphone SCADA 3000 has built-in C-programming to handle any control algorithms, which may be too complex for Ladder Logic. Though the C-program can run independently of ladder programs, we have built-in the capability of both programs to share and pass information back and forth for ultimate control. Of course, the necessary software to develop C-programs is included in our free software package!

PID Functions
Not only does Sensaphone SCADA 3000 build in ladder and C-programming, we complete your control needs with built-in Proportional Integral Derivative control functions. Any analog input and output channel pair can be associated with up to 8 PID algorithms. Each algorithm will have its own set of fill-in-the-blank parameters.

Remote Programming Access
The Sensaphone SCADA 3000 has another unique function that sets it apart from other RTUs and PLCs: total programming is possible from local or remote locations! There are no chips to “ burn” and programming remains safe in case of power loss. You are in constant communication with your “remotes,” allowing you to program new control or alarm parameters 24 hours a day! Updating Ladder and C- programs can also be done remotely, allowing for maximum flexibility in communication and control.

FLEXIBILE POWER SOURCE
Sensaphone SCADA 3000 power systems include the latest technology in intelligent battery charging: current monitoring, safe battery cut off and built-in support for solar power. Power supplies are available for both 110 and 220 volt operation and with a variety of international safety approvals.

COMPLETE WARRANTY AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT
All Sensaphone products are completely manufactured in the United States so Sensaphone, Inc. can stand behind the SCADA 3000 with a 3-year comprehensive warranty and unlimited technical support.
