Elettroflottazione – IN-CO Contatti Elettrici – Case History
Made in Rilheva – A real Internet of Things story
Requirements and Solution
IN-CO has always aimed at innovation and environmental impact reduction. Consistently with this philosophy, in May 2000 the company chose to invest in Elettroflottazione® advanced technology. This choice led IN-CO to manage wastewater treatment and recovery.
Throughout the years, IN-CO has gained significant plant management experience. Almost all plants shutdown (even if limited) depended on unique and light events, caused by small malfunctions.
This was completely unpredictable because the operator was not physically onsite.
In May 2013, Stefano Sommariva (supplier of Elettroflottazione® technology) revamped the plant with a new automation electrical panel equipped with Rilheva Remote Control Solution.
Ever since, IN-CO has real-time plant total control and remote support provided by the supplier.
So, external assistance costs as well as breakdowns have almost been completely cut out.
