Combined Benefits of Ignition & Bedrock

Seamless combination of excellent hardware & software,

featuring:

• Open technologies & standards

• Intrinsic security

• The lowest TCO

Addressing Industry Challenges

• Challenge: Need for modernization and stronger security

• Solution: The most comprehensive security for hardware

and software, and bringing IT technologies to controls


• Challenge: Limited funding/capital

• Solution: Best possible TCO, use opex instead of capex


• Challenge: Need improved control and better information

• Solution: Connect with practically any device or system,

see it in one place, and develop with it.


• Challenge: Need to move away from proprietary solutions; flexibility

and choice in technology suppliers

• Solution: Use an open solution that runs on almost any OS and built

for flexibility and scalability in the future

Two Use Cases

• Clarksville Light & Water Co. in Clarksville, AR

• Russellville Water & Sewer System in Russellville, AR

About Clarksville Light & Water

Separate Utility Board –

• By decision of City Council in 1947

• Autonomy from elected officials

• To operate it like the business ... that it is

• Council still has “regulatory” oversight

• Assigning board members

• Approve issuing debt

• Approving rates

• Not-for-profit rates

FY 2016 Capex Included Major Tech Upgrades

CLW Fiber Network

• 16+ miles, 288 strands, excess capacity

• Most of the expense was labor not material

• Made economic sense to build with excess capacity

• Redundant rings, designed for reliability

• Self-healing features

• Connected to CLW facilities

• 4 Electric Subs &

• 1 SWPA grid tie sub (Wireless)

• Main Office

• Operations Center

• West Water Tower

• Water Treatment

• Pollution control

• Also have wireless communications to Water Tower

Future Projects

Future Projects:

1. Remote Telemetry Units for Sewer and Water

• Bedrock Controls and Ethernet Radios back to Ignition

2. Sewer Plant Controls

3. Distributed Generation

Success Factors

1. Client Vision for the Future – Know where they want to go

2. Great Trust Relationship

3. The Right Technology

• Ignition across all three utility departments

• Bedrock cyber secure controllers

Outstanding Benefits for Clarksville Light & Water

Fiber loop sized for local utilities, fire, police, schools, hospitals, + hi-speed internet for ALL

Secure, remote access/control functionality

ONE SCADA HMI for water, sewer & electric

Advances city’s hi-tech business development

PLC’s 100% OK after 2-MILLION VOLT tests

Military-grade, cybersecure PLC’s are EMP resistant & impervious to malware hacks

ULTRA-fast, efficient, reliable, and durable

Projected savings over $400,000 per year

Cybersecure Electric SCADA Controls

Russellville Water & Sewer/City Corp.

• Serves nearly 30,000 residents

• Upgraded to Ignition HMI/SCADA (completed in mid-2015)

• Replaced aging PLCs with Bedrock controllers (completed in late

2015)


Now using Ignition in:

• Water treatment plant and

water distribution system

• Sewer treatment plant and

sewer collection

• Alarming and reporting

• Mobile tracking and reporting of

sanitary sewer overflows

(SSOs)


Mobile tracking and reporting of sanitary sewer

overflows (SSOs)

• Review data in real-time

• Submit reports in a matter of minutes!


What Russellville staff are saying about the SSO Mobile Tracking App:

• “Field guys love it … even the guys that haven’t used computers before.”

• “What used to take an hour or more can be submitted in about 5 minutes”

• “I know our flow estimates are more accurate now”


Now using Bedrock controller with

many advantages over PLCs:

• Backplane is electromagnetic

instead of pin-based

• Galvanic isolation layer

• Deterministic I/O update rate

• Military-grade, real-time OS

• Scalable for advanced control

functions


Cost Savings:

• More tags without paying more

• Easy switchover

• Reduced installation & maintenance costs

• And more


Results and Future Plans:

• System running without fail

since installation

• Planning to replace all

controllers with Bedrock

What Can We Summarize About These Two Case Studies?

Affordable Technology That’s Available Today

• Ignition: never been beaten in a price comparison; feature-rich.

• Bedrock controllers offer best-in-class in terms of ease of use, reliability,

warranty, and added peace-of-mind with cybersecurity.

• The combination of Ignition and Bedrock offer unprecedented

capabilities; two companies working together to deliver the solutions that

the industry needs.

Working to Help Water Districts

Inductive + Bedrock

• More data = well-informed decisions

• Improving security = greater peace of mind

• Better control of operations = identify and fix problems faster

• Working together on a roadmap to intrinsic, adaptive cyber security

Software and hardware solutions within your financial reach.
