Declare automation freedom
Declare freedom from legacy control systems, boost resilience, and future-proof your utility
Ensuring the availability and reliability of critical water and wastewater processes can be a significant challenge when the automated control systems regulating them have become outdated or even obsolete. These systems are expensive to operate and maintain, and the increased likelihood of failure reduces the resilience of the utility. The Phoenix Contact Engineering Services team helped one utility address this challenge by completely modernizing an obsolete control system at the New Freedom Borough Wastewater Treatment Plant in southern Pennsylvania.
The Phoenix Contact Engineering Services team helped the New Freedom Borough Wastewater Treatment Plant in southern Pennsylvania modernize its obsolete, plant-wide control system. The utility reduced maintenance costs, increased resilience, and is ideally equipped for future requirements as well.
