Distributed Control System Clause Samples

POPULAR SAMPLE Copied 1 times
Distributed Control System. A microprocessor-based Distributed Control System (DCS) shall be provided for controlling, monitoring, indication, alarm, and historical functions. CRTs located in the main control room shall serve as the primary operator interface. This system will monitor, alarm, and provide limited control of the combustion turbines. CTGs remote CRTs shall be provided in the main control room for detailed controlling, alarming, and monitoring of the combustion turbines. A MODBUS or Ethernet communication link for data acquisition shall be provided between the turbine controls and the DCS for each combustion turbine. Control functions between the DCS and turbine control systems shall be via hardwired signals. The DCS and the PLC shall be as manufactured by a reputable DCS and PLC supplier with a proven track record in the power industry (approved by Purchaser). Any normally operating auxiliary systems during normal startup and shutdown operation of the Plant shall be controlled through the DCS. The DCS shall be capable of allowing control and data to be passed between the ISO and the plant’s AGCT or RIG system. The microprocessor-based DCS shall be complete with design, engineering, materials, manufacture and assembly, optimization, documentation, testing, and field services. The DCS shall include automatic control and monitoring of the startup, shutdown and normal operation of the Plant systems through redundant Plant communication loops. The DCS shall provide automatic and manual control of all major subsystems. The Facility shall include a master clock system synchronized with satellite (GPS) complete with antenna, accessories, and equipment. This master clock system shall provide time synchronization signals for all control systems for the plant requiring time synchronization.
Distributed Control System. The selection of components as well as the design of the control system, both in terms of hardware and software, as required by the Works, requires the Project Manager’s approval prior to implementation.
Distributed Control System. All communication, metering, telemetry, and associated operation equipment will be centralized into the Project’s Distributed Control System (“DCS”). Seller shall configure each Storage Unit’s DCS so that SCE may access it during any Put Period via an automated system employed by SCE real time operations to remotely monitor, dispatch, and control each Storage Unit (“Generation Management System”) from SCE’s Generation Operations Center. Seller shall ensure that the access link will provide a monitoring and control interface to enable automatic control for charging and discharging of each Storage Unit and provide real-time information regarding each Storage Unit(s)’ Stored Energy Level to SCE. Seller shall link the systems via an approved SCE communication network, utilizing existing industry standard network protocol, as approved by SCE. The connection will be bidirectional in nature and used by the Parties to exchange all data points to and from the Generation Operations Center.
