Against the backdrop of rural revitalization and increasingly stringent environmental supervision, a large number of geographically dispersed rural domestic sewage treatment stations are confronted with severe operational and management challenges:

  • Low operation and maintenance efficiency: Relying entirely on manual regular inspections, the response is delayed, preventive maintenance cannot be realized, and labor costs remain high.

  • "Black box" of process operation: Key process parameters of the stations (such as tank liquid level, equipment operating status, aeration time, lift pump frequency, etc.) cannot be grasped in real time, process adjustment lacks basis, and operating efficiency and energy consumption are difficult to optimize.

  • Constraints of network and power supply: Most stations are located in the wild, lack wired networks, and have unstable power supply quality, imposing extremely high requirements on the industrial-grade reliability of equipment.


Application Plan

The ED-IPC1100 industrial intelligent gateway is adopted as the "edge intelligent brain" for each sewage treatment station, creating an economical, reliable and easily deployable standardized monitoring solution.

  • Core Process Data Aggregation: It communicates with the PLC or intelligent controller of the integrated sewage treatment equipment at the station through the RS485 interface using the standard Modbus RTU protocol, stably obtaining the operating status, current, fault signals and key process parameters of fans, water pumps, dosing devices, etc. Its universal I/O capability can conveniently access digital signals such as high and low liquid level switches.

  • Flexible and Reliable Data Backhaul: The built-in 4G CAT1 module (optimized for the Internet of Things, with wide coverage, low power consumption and low cost) ensures stable data upload to the regulatory cloud platform for stations without optical fibers; for eligible stations, data can be transmitted back via WiFi or Ethernet, providing redundant links.

  • Local Process Visualization and Interaction (Optional): A small industrial touch screen is installed on the equipment cabinet door via the HDMI interface, providing on-site personnel with real-time process flow charts, data overviews and emergency control interfaces, realizing "local-remote" collaboration.

  • Industrial-Grade Hardware Assurance: All-metal casing, fanless wide-temperature design (-20~60°C), and 9-28V wide-voltage DC input can easily cope with high temperature, humidity and voltage fluctuations in outdoor cabinets, ensuring uninterrupted stable operation all year round.

  • Edge Intelligence Empowerment: Based on the open ecosystem of Raspberry Pi, edge computing applications can be quickly deployed to realize autonomous process logic (such as equipment rotation, liquid level linkage control), local data preprocessing and alarming (such as data cleaning, real-time judgment of abnormal working conditions), reducing the cloud burden and improving the overall response speed and reliability of the system.


Why Choose ED-IPC1100?

  • Low-Cost Industrial-Grade Core: Raspberry Pi CM0 delivers reliable and "just enough" computing power.

  • Out-of-Box Use, Hassle-Free Ecosystem: The mature Raspberry Pi ecosystem provides massive open-source software, tutorials and development resources. Customers can quickly complete protocol docking, logic development and system integration using tools such as Node-RED and Python, greatly shortening the project delivery cycle.

  • Full-Coverage Connectivity, Flexible Deployment: The dual-channel design of wired and wireless (4G+WiFi) meets all network scenarios from suburban areas to remote villages, making it an ideal choice for decentralized monitoring networking.

  • Built for Harsh Environments: From wide temperature, wide voltage to all-metal DIN-rail mounting, every feature precisely addresses the challenges of outdoor industrial sites, significantly reducing on-site failure rates and ensuring long-term effective investment.
