SCADA & Telemetry Integration

Monitoring data delivered into the SCADA, telemetry and building management systems you already run.

Telemetry is in our roots. Before EDS, founder Graham Harper started ELPRO, now one of the world’s largest SCADA suppliers.

Our equipment works with SCADA systems including ClearSCADA, Schneider CITECT and ELPRO. Data can also reach you from our platform by API, and analytical sensors can feed new or existing building management systems.

Ways to connect

Direct to SCADAInstruments that work with ClearSCADA, Schneider CITECT, ELPRO and many more.
4G telemetry4G built into flow meters and loggers, for real-time data.
Hosted SFTPFiles dropped into a folder EDS hosts, so nothing is exposed at your end.
Building management systemsReal-time analytical sensors integrated into new or existing BMS.
Analysers to telemetryAquamonitrix sends nitrate and nitrite readings straight to SCADA or telemetry.

Applications

  • Pump stations and wet wells
  • Network flow and level sites
  • Treatment process and quality analysers
  • Facilities and buildings

From FlowSense to your systems

Validated data can flow back out of EDS FlowSense to the SCADA, historian or reporting tools your teams already use.

  • Scheduled files

    CSV files delivered to your server over SFTP or FTPS, for SCADA file importers and historians.

  • MQTT

    Messages to your broker as JSON or CSV. The closest thing to live.

  • Read API

    Pulled over HTTPS on your schedule, into tools such as Power BI, Excel, Grafana or ArcGIS. Read only, with one exception: a key can be allowed to record what a crew found on a work order.

  • Webhooks

    Signed messages posted when an alarm is raised or cleared, a forecast puts a site at risk, or Blockage Watch flags a blockage.

Common questions

Does anything need to be installed on our SCADA?

No. There’s no agent, connector or gateway to install. OPC UA, DNP3 and Modbus aren’t touched in either direction, and there’s no control path into your systems.

Are the readings changed on the way?

No. Values are sent exactly as stored, with no gap filling and no smoothing. A missing reading is left blank, not estimated.

How long does a connection take to commission?

Usually an afternoon. We commission each one with you, and it isn’t done until a reading has arrived and been checked.

Is there a charge for the feeds?

No. Feeds, the API and webhooks cost nothing extra with a FlowSense subscription.
