DESCRIPTION:

The Hyde Park site was originally a Bailey NET90 Distributed Control System (DCS) and the facility constantly has a staff on-site.

Major equipment that was reprogrammed for this site includes:

Collection System Leachate Decanters

Leachate Storage & Handling Source Control Wells

Purge Wells Rain Water Sumps

SPECIAL FEATURES:

In an effort to minimize the system change-over time, ACS supplied detailed wiring drawings

and pre-terminated field cables to connect to the existing field terminals.

Total system change-over time was less than one week.

The Web Server software is installed at this site, however, maintenance personnel

could view any of the sites once onto the secure network.
