Solar Tracker System

Argus Systems Single & Dual Axis Solar tracker control systems and Gateway solutions support multiple configurations of solar panel installations.

  • Energy generation is 25% - 45& higher than the fixed for single and dual-axis respectively.
  • Solar Tracker System is Designed for minimal & Ease of maintenance with easy replacement of parts.
  • Lightweight comparative to other solutions that offer significant Reduction in installation time and cost.
  • Solar Tracker System Monitors the health of actuator, motor, mechanical and civil structures.
  • Online & onsite control of trackers
  • Onboard data logging as well as cloud monitoring. Dashboard Provides access to all sensors data and Reports
  • User-based and autonomous stowing of Panels. Local weather station data is used to align the panels for autonomous mode.
  • Highly Reliable with zero error sun position calculations.
  • Control system can drive up to 144KWp
  • Self-power capability for controllers the solar panel. Auxiliary power consumption is less than 0.1% of energy generation.
  • IP67/69 weatherproof enclosures.

Energy Management System -Power Plant SCADA

  • Energy Management Systems are used in a variety of Monitoring and Control applications including Power Plant SCADA, Energy management systems for Smart Buildings, Campuses, and Smart Cities.
  • These gateways are multiprotocol supporting monitoring of MFMs, MFRs, Weather Stations, a variety of sensors and other data loggers or controllers over serial, wireless, or Ethernet network interfaces.
  • Digital and Analog I/O modules are provided to monitor various statuses and alarms from TG, Transformer & LT/HT panels, and protection relays. Relay based controls are provided for ON/OFF control of breakers, pumps, etc.
  • Each gateway monitors a set of devices and sends data to a local or cloud-based server which provides long term storage and browser-based access through dashboards.

RTU AMR (MODBUS, 4G)

  • Argus MODBUS RTU AMR solution can seamlessly integrate with existing DLMS & Non-DLMS electric meters. AMR system Extracts various parameters that are received from single/3-phase meter and sends data through MODBUS Interface to Power Plant SCADA, Energy Management Gateways, Feeder Remote Terminal Unit (FRTU).
  • Supports DLMS & Non- DLMS Meters
  • connects to multi meters (Modbus RTU slave) via RS485, RS232,
  • Companion 2G/3G/4G/LTE MODBUS RTU available to send metering data directly to cloud server in case SCADA Systems, Feeder Remote Terminal Unit (FRTU) /Gateways are not available in deployment topology.
  • In typical deployments SCADA / FRTU/ Gateway need to perform MODBUS polling for each meter and waiting for its response which takes a lot of time if deploying plenty of meters in the network. This solution can avoid this problem because SCADA/FRTU only need to fetch the consolidated meter data from multiple meters in single data fetch cycles.
MODBUS RTU AMR

MODBUS FRTU (Feeder Remote Terminal Unit )

    MODBUS RTU Data Acquisition modules is a standalone Unit that directly connects to contact multiplying relays (CMR) panel in feeder circuits of substation and sends status over MODBUS to Gateway. The Installation of the MODBUS RTU DAQ module on CMR Panel has significant advantages over traditional architectures.

  • Eliminates the use of long signal Cables between CMR and Gateway / FRTU ( Feeder remote terminal unit) and thereby Improves reliability.
  • Addresses space constraint in substation / control panels.
  • Eliminates the risk of damage by rodents as long cable is eliminated.
  • Faster implementation and maintenance saves project and AMC time.
  • Faster location and restoration fault due to MODBUS based modular design.
  • Direct configuration of MODBUS RTU , saves CMR termination hassle at Gateway / FRTU (Feeder remote terminal unit ).
  • Offers Higher communication reliability by using redundant MODBUS (RS-485) data link to Gateway / FRTU (Feeder remote terminal unit).
  • The rugged unit is suitable and type tested for extreme environment applications.

Emergency shutdown Valve (ESDV) Control Unit

Electronics Controller for emergency shutdown ( ESD ) Valve detects abnormal Pressure conditions on a production process and initiate a shutdown of valve if any of the reading shows the operation is no longer within the pre-set safety margins of pressure.

  • Pressure [High Pressure & Low-Pressure sensing from 60 to 20,000 psi].
  • System Battery Level sensors.
  • Emergency shutdown command from SCADA/RTU system.
  • The Pressure gauges indicate the actual reading and set points.
  • Indicator lamps indicate the status of pressor sensors and alarms which helps the operator in instantly knowing the conditions of the process.
  • A green LED shows that the system is operating without problems.
  • System Normally operates with open ESD valve and closure of ESD valve indicates that an alarm is present.
