SICAM Power Automation System (PAS)
Power generation and distribution have been undergoing major changes and the innovation cycles are getting ever shorter, with the market becoming increasingly deregulated.
SICAM PAS meets all the demands placed on a distributed substation control system – both now and in the future.
SICAM PAS is an open system. In addition to standardized data transfer processes, it features user interfaces for the integration of system-specific tasks and offers multiple automation options.
SICAM PAS can thus be easily included in existing systems and also used for system integration. With modern diagnostics, it optimally supports commissioning and maintenance.
SICAM PAS is clearly structured and reliable, thanks to its open, fully documented and tested system.
Basic Features
- Modular and scalable hardware and software
- User-friendliness
- Flexible graphical configuration of automation
- Open system
Applications
- Offers a large number of commercially available communication protocols (e.g. IEC 61850 Client, IEC 60870-5-103 Master, IEC 60870-5-101 Master and Slave, IEC 60870-5-104 Master, DNP V3.0 Master, PROFIBUS DP Master, MODBUS Master, PROFIBUS FMS, SINAUT LSA ILSA Master, TG 8979, CDT) for recording data from various devices and through differing communication channels.
- Allows easy and fast integration of conventional protocols.
- Asymmetric encryption enables tap-proof communication connection to higher-level control centers.
- Can be configured as an OPC Server or as an OPC Client.
- Supports distributed system configurations.
- Uses existing hardware components and communication standards as well as their connections
- Controls and registers the process data for all devices of a substation within the scope of the data transfer protocols supported.
- Acts as a communication gateway which is why only one single data connection to a higher-level system control center is required.
- Enables integration of a fully graphical process visualization system directly in the substation.
- Simplifies installation and parameterization of new devices thanks to its intuitive user interface
- Allows integrated testing and diagnostic functions.
