Sequetrol IoT range

Powerful Control Units for SBR & continuous plants with on-board Wi-Fi connectivity and 2/4G as module – different hardware versions and casings available.

Sequetrol IoT Features

  • Wi-Fi and webserver on-board, 2/4G and LTE Cat M1 / NB IoT as option
  • Water-level control for multiple tanks at multiple levels using pressure sensor
  • Up to 8 relay outputs, up to 4 digital inputs
  • Graphical LCD
  • Different hardware versions
  • Operation of controller by phone / tablet / touchscreen via browser (no app installation required)
  • Connection to the world of PLC / SCADA via HTTP-REST
  • Reception of an email in case of any problems
  • SBR and continuous processes can be run at the same time in one Control Unit, e.g. for duplex buffer-pump operation
  • Measure water level by pressure sensing via different airlifts / diffusor / bubbling-in
  • Even a complex WWTP can be programmed: 8 relay outputs, 3 digital inputs, a 4-20mA analogue input, pressure sensing and optional current measurement
  • Overview of your plant using the detailed event log showing all relevant parameters, including pressure, in– and output states, remaining times etc.
  • Match your technical requirements by selecting your Control Unit of the Sequetrol® IoT range: Sequetrol® IoT mini, Sequetrol® IoT midi, Sequetrol® IoT maxi or Sequetrol® IoT mega

     

The Sequetrol® IoT belongs to a new generation of Control Units developed to meet the requirements of Internet of Things (IoT) and Smart Home. It combines the possibility to handle even the most complex sewage treatment processes with connectivity and remote operability.

Integrated webserver

The integrated webserver of the IoT controller series allows you to operate the treatment plant and to access all information by any browser.

  • Service the plant by Wi-Fi without having to enter the building where the control unit is installed.
  • Operate a big plant “SCADA-like” with a touchscreen—simply add a standard tablet to the control cabinet and connect via Wi-Fi.
  • Analyze and operate the plant remotely via 2G/4G in case of any issues.
HTTP-REST interface

REST using JSON over HTTP is a widely used standard for M2M communication. The Control Unit can thus be integrated into any code base that can communicate over HTTP, including .NET, Java, Python, scripting environments like PHP or JavaScript, and more! Like this, an efficient data exchange between the control unit and telemetry servers, PLC and SCADA devices are possible.

Create sophisticated processes

With the Sequetrol® IoT there are no restrictions to your ideas. BONNEL’s PC software MenuMaker allows programming even the most complex processes and menus efficiently. The IoT controller supports multiple connected programs, calculations within the process, analogue water level evaluation, automatic switching-off of airlifts, user defined alarm conditions, timers, counters and much more. Once programmed, you can even modify and adopt the software yourself. It is even possible to combine SBR and continuous processes within one control unit to design innovative cleaning processes or to run your buffer pump in duplex mode while cleaning the sewage.

Create new business models

The IoT platform can help you to create new business models.

  • Do you want to rent your plants? Block the plant automatically when no payment is arriving.
  • Do you want to compete with big plants? Connect to SCADA and offer touchscreens.
  • Do you want to reach remote areas? Control and monitor your plant remotely.
  • Do you want to do PPP or provide cleaning as a service? Prove your plant is running well connecting sensors to the analogue input and transfer all data to telemetry servers in the cloud.

Standard models are available in any quantity. Besides the standard models, customer specific versions / configurations are available at an MOQ of 100 units per year. 

On request and in reasonable quantities, customer specific Control Units based on this product can be developed. For example, another casing, a different I/O configuration, no LCD, other communication technologies like LoRa® and similar changes can be realized.

Normally, the Control Units are delivered with a menu, web pages and a process, which were developed according to the particular requirements of a sewage treatment plant manufacturer. As the development is time-consuming and thus not efficient for low quantities, BONNEL offers some standard processes which can be slightly modified according to the customers’ requirements to lower the development costs. 

Please note that there are only dummy step times programmed. The preprogrammed processes do not replace know-how about decentralized sewage treatment at BONNEL’s customers. BONNEL is a market leader in Control Units, not in sewage treatment processes. BONNEL does not guarantee that plants with these standard processes will have good treatment results. BONNEL does not copy any processes or features that have been realized for a customer into its standard processes.
