Pump, injection controller
HM Digital's new dual control pump/injection controller (model CIC-152) allows users to monitor and control TDS/EC levels within a specific range. The controller can be wired to activate a device such as a pump, solenoid valve, external light, etc. if the TDS/EC level rises above or falls below the user-defined maximum and minimum. There are also two independent maximum and minimum warning alarm settings independent of the control points.

Operator's console recorder
Longwatch offers the Operator's Console Recorder, a software module that automatically records images being shown on multiple HMI or SCADA operator's displays. The module takes its signals directly from each HMI screen's video software driver, so it records the actual video being sent to the HMI in a water treatment plant's control room. The software can accommodate video signals from an unlimited number of HMIs to show what operators were watching at the time of an event or alarm.
