Great Lakes Water Authority – DWS-882 SCADA Radio Network Design/Build Upgrades

PCI provided design/build services to upgrade the GLWA/DWSD SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) Radio Network which includes over 1,100 Landis+Gyr radios and associated facilities. The SCADA Radio Network accepts and relays data including wholesale water meter reading, sewer meter readings, and instrumentation and control signals for a variety of remote GLWA facilities. Along with the installation of the new Landis+Gyr radios, we replaced all existing antenna and ground planes, antenna mounting hardware, connectors, feedlines, and lighting surge arrestors. The scope of work included:
1. Site Evaluations
2. Design of new installations
3. Procurement of hardware
4. Configuration of radios
5. Installation of new radios and associated components
6. Testing of each radio, and an overall system test
7. Documentation
