RELIABLE CONTROL FROM INTAKE TO DISCHARGE
Industrial Systems Integrators provides automation, electrical, and operational technology solutions for municipal and industrial water systems.
ISI integrates pumps, instrumentation, drives, PLCs, RTUs, HMIs, SCADA systems, alarms, and remote communications into reliable control systems operators can understand and maintain.
Whether the project involves one lift station or an entire treatment facility, we develop practical solutions around the existing process, equipment, operating requirements, and future expansion plans.

DRINKING-WATER TREATMENT CONTROLS
Water-treatment facilities depend on coordinated control across multiple process stages. ISI integrates the equipment, instruments, and control systems required to move raw water through treatment, storage, and distribution.
Depending on the facility, these systems may include:
- Raw-water intake and pumping
- Flow measurement and pacing
- Coagulation and chemical addition
- Flocculation and sedimentation
- Filtration and filter sequencing
- Filter backwash control
- Disinfection systems
- Clearwell level monitoring
- Finished-water pumping
- Tank and reservoir monitoring
- Booster-station pressure control
- Distribution-system telemetry
Operators receive clear process information through HMI and SCADA screens designed around the actual treatment process.
PUMP AND LIFT-STATION AUTOMATION
Reliable pumping depends on more than turning a motor on and off. The control system must respond to process demand while protecting equipment and giving operators clear information.
ISI develops pump-control systems using wet-well level, tank level, pressure, flow, motor status, and equipment availability.
Control strategies can include:
- Lead, lag, and standby pump sequencing
- Automatic pump alternation
- Level- and pressure-based control
- Variable-frequency drive control
- Pump availability and permissive logic
- High- and low-level alarms
- Pump failure and overload alarms
- Runtime and start-count tracking
- Flow and pressure monitoring
- Local and remote operating modes
- Communication-loss monitoring
- Generator and transfer-switch status
The result is a coordinated system that helps operators identify problems quickly and operate equipment consistently.
WASTEWATER TREATMENT CONTROLS
Reliable pumping depends on more than turning a motor
Wastewater automation must coordinate pumps, blowers, valves, clarifiers, analyzers, and solids-handling equipment across the facility.
ISI provides PLC, HMI, SCADA, instrumentation, and drive integration for processes such as:
- Influent pumping and flow measurement
- Screening and grit-removal equipment
- Primary clarification
- Aeration and blower control
- Dissolved-oxygen monitoring
- Biological treatment processes
- Secondary clarification
- Return activated sludge systems
- Waste activated sludge systems
- Chemical addition
- Disinfection equipment
- Effluent monitoring
- Sludge transfer and dewatering
- Reclaimed-water systems
Process screens, alarms, trends, and equipment status are organized so operators can understand what is running, what is available, and what requires attention.
CHEMICAL-FEED AND DISINFECTION SYSTEMS
Chemical-feed systems require dependable pacing, equipment feedback, permissives, and alarms.
ISI can integrate:
- Chemical storage-tank levels
- Metering pumps
- Duty and standby pump selection
- Flow-paced chemical feed
- Analyzer feedback
- Pump run and fault status
- Low-level and empty-tank alarms
- Flow verification
- Leak-detection inputs
- Local and remote operating modes
- Disinfection equipment
- Process interlocks
- Alarm and event history
Control strategies are developed around the facility’s process requirements, existing equipment, operating procedures, and owner standards.
SCADA AND REMOTE TELEMETRY
Wells, lift stations, tanks, reservoirs, and pumping facilities are often spread across a large service area. Operators need a reliable way to monitor these locations without visiting every site.
ISI develops centralized SCADA and telemetry systems that can communicate through:
- Licensed and unlicensed radio systems
- Cellular communications
- Fiber-optic networks
- Industrial Ethernet
- Existing utility communication networks
- Remote terminal units
- PLC-based remote stations
The SCADA system can provide:
- Equipment status
- Tank and wet-well levels
- Pressure and flow measurements
- Pump runtimes and start counts
- Alarm notification
- Communication status
- Historical trends
- Operator commands
- Site security inputs
- Generator and utility-power status
We can expand an existing SCADA system or develop a coordinated platform for multiple utility sites.
PLC, HMI, RTU, AND SCADA MODERNIZATION
Obsolete controls can make a working facility difficult to maintain. Replacement parts become harder to obtain, communication networks become unreliable, and program backups or electrical drawings may be incomplete.
ISI modernizes legacy systems through planned, documented upgrades.
Modernization services can include:
- Existing-system investigation
- PLC and RTU replacement
- HMI and SCADA migration
- Obsolete drive replacement
- Remote I/O upgrades
- Communication-network upgrades
- Alarm rationalization
- Historical data improvements
- Control-panel modifications
- Updated electrical drawings
- PLC and HMI program backups
- Phased installation planning
- Cutover and startup support
Whenever possible, upgrades are planned in stages to reduce disruption to operating facilities.
