Features & Applications Unique to QC2I

Control Panels

QCI's standard control panels are UL508A/698A rated panels and are of a NEMA 3R standard construction with 3-point pad-locking latch and louvered skirt construction. QCI, however, can meet any panel requirment desired by our customers and Engineers, and has routinely made double, single, or two sided double door panels of any specified NEMA rating. Our panels use as standard: Siemens, Allen Bradley, square-D, Pheonix, Telemaquie, and/or Finder parts. Any parts or products can be used, as requested by a spec or a client. QCI panels can be used for any water/wastewater municipal or industrial application and can be of any type of operation. We have used all forms of pump controllers, PLCs, SCADA devices, and dialing devices in previous panels and can quickly and efficiently adapt our panel model to fit any form of control/ telementry/ or SCADA device or application. With our in house shop we can remodel existing panels to update their operation and build the reliable and efficient panels our clients expected and demand. When conjstructing a panel we belive in looking at the end use, in doing this we realize that durability, reliability, quality, and efficiency are needed in every application.

H2O Client

The H2O Client allows for an easy to use, affordable, and profitable means to sell bulk water supplies. Quality Control & Integration has seen an emerging need to produce and distribute an alternative to coin or card operatered Bulk Water Vending Systems. Our keypad operated system allows for multiple users to enter a simple PIN code in order to purchase water, saving the hassle and cost of card or coin management. This system also allows a city to preset each clients total amount of water they may draw. In addition to these many features the H2O Client can be customized to existing structures or can exist as a stand alone unit. For more on the H2O Client please contact us or follow this link to the H2O Client web page.

QCI Model 1500ct Pump Controller

The Quality Control and Integration 1500ct Controller is a unique and versitile Pump Controller made to meet the municipal and industrial demands for a reliable, easy to use, and efficient user operator interface and controller. The 1500ct comes telementry ready with the addition of a radio, cellular modem, or leased phone line. The 1500ct allows you to monitor station status, change pump start and stop set points, change high and low level alarm set points, acknowledge alarms, and view pump run, fail, and performance information remotely. The 1500ct is an "Open" control platform supporting industry standard communication protocols like Modbus and DF1. This open protocal approach allows the 1500ct to be readily integrated into most new or existing SCADA systems. Two serial communication ports allow for redundant telementry networks.The 1500ct is also versitile, it can be used to control and monitor up to three constant and/or variable speed pumps in either pump up or pump down mode. This versitility makes the 1500ct able to control even difficult pump applications such as pressure/flow controlled booster stations. For more information about this remarkable product visit the 1500ct web page or contact us.

Supervisory Control & Data Acquisition (SCADA) Integration

QCI designs SCADA systems which offer true "open architecture". The major benefit of an open architecture structure is system flexibility. SCADA system capability can be extended using products and/or with integration of hardware/software from other manufacturers. These products include:

Sensaphone
Data Radio
MDS

This flexibility provides a significant option to our customers and allows them to combine product "brand" satisfaction with QCI's proven expertise and performance.

We have the in-house expertise and tools to provide the associated services that are required for radio based telemetering systems. We provide radio propagation path studies to determine exact specifications for each site. We also provide complete assistance in obtaining FCC licensing.

Our experience has covered equipment by most radio manufacturers over the many frequency bands used in our industry including VHF/UHF/900MHz, 800 and 900MHz Trunking, and Spread Spectrum.

Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) Integration:

We have extensive experience integrating most manufacturers' PLC. We have consistently taken the lead on the more difficult aspects of a control system. These include process control loop definition and diagrams, Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) programming, communications design, programming and troubleshooting, as well as, various data management applications and the data reporting aspects of any given system.

Our engineering staff has successfully integrated virtually all major Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) projects.

Personal Computer Integration:

Personnel Computer based Human Machine Interface (HMI) is an important aspect of all the QCI furnished PLC and SCADA systems. We are certified with InTouch Wonderware as System Integrators. We have implemented many of the most popular third party HMI packages, including the following:

Wonderware, Intouch
Cimplicity
RS View
PlantScape/SCADA/Process
Citect

Reporting applications utilize standard Microsoft Excel for Windows, which enables the reports to be produced in virtually any format. Reports can be generated automatically based on virtually any criteria; examples include: "Shifts" or "Daily", "Weekly" "Monthly", and even on a yearly basis. Data can be automatically collected at a confiqurable rate and stored in an ODBC compliant database. This data can be manipulated to produce averages, totals, and minimum/maximum values, which can be imported into Excel. Government required reports could also be generated using this reporting method. All reports are automatically stored on the system's hard drive for printing out manually and/or automatically.
