Sabesp Santos OCC

Supervision and Control Integration

Altus' Nexto System programmable logic controllers were chosen to comprise the new supervision and control system for Sabesp Santos' Control Center (CCO). With proven robustness in critical applications, the Nexto line of PLCs offers reliable performance and efficient communication, essential for integrated sanitation management.

With high data processing capacity, the solution allows for remote plant supervision and operation via the CCO, ensuring greater security, agility, and reliability in operations.

Remote control and supervision via the Command and Operations Center.

To facilitate the management of sewage collection and water supply processes, Sabesp Santos implemented a modern CCO (Command and Operations Center), located in the city center.

From this center, the company has real-time access to strategic data on water production and supply throughout the coastal region, allowing it to monitor, analyze, and make operational decisions with agility and precision.

With the integration and reliability of Altus solutions, Sabesp Santos’ CCO has become a strategic point for intelligent management of water infrastructure, contributing to the efficiency of supply, operational safety, and the quality of life of the population served.

Application with Nexto PLC

This solution uses Nexto programmable controllers for data collection and processing within the unit

Instant access to system information

Altus' NX Series programmable controllers were used to maintain the sanitation levels that Santos enjoys. With great technological potential, it is capable of controlling large numbers of I/O and communication points, as well as distributing control over projects such as sewage treatment and pumping in any location along the coast of São Paulo.

The controllers support communication with a wide range of devices and supervisory software. The use of open protocols is essential to ensure compatibility and integration with various systems. For instance, the MODBUS/TCP protocol operates as both a client and server within the CPUs.

Preventive maintenance and diagnostics system

The solution provided by Altus enables a highly effective preventive maintenance system, which helps track equipment performance over time.

It also gives access to equipment diagnostics, simplifying issue identification and supporting scheduled equipment rotation.

Control and supervision solution

For this operation, two NX3020 units were used, with approximately 200 remote units connected, totaling more than 6,000 communication points. This project also developed logic that enabled the execution of logic loops in commands between the CPUs connected to the NX Series and the supervisory system that controls the process. This prevents any interference in the physical medium from altering any output command from the supervisory system before it reaches the remote unit.

Additionally, the CPUs, equipped with dual independent Ethernet interfaces, isolate the supervisory software from the company’s corporate network, reducing the risk of system vulnerabilities from potential viruses. Another key advantage of this project was the product’s compact design, which allowed for quick adaptation to the existing panels at the CCO without taking up too much space.
