J.F. White’s Electrical Division was contracted by
the MWRA to upgrade their existing "Bently Nevada"
condition monitoring equipment at the Deer Island Waste
Water Treatment Plant with the latest in monitoring
technology.
This project included the installation of field
monitoring, probe and sensory devices, conduit
raceways, wiring infrastructure and control panels
required for monitoring of the operation of critical
processing equipment. The equipment being monitored
included 5kv motors, 480v pumps, generators and
centrifuges. Some of the equipment was situated in a
Class 1 Division 1 hazardous locations.
The data collected from the field devices was
processed and integrated with the MWRA’s SCADA and
PICS System to allow the personnel to remotely monitor
the systems and operations from the Administration
Building.
