IPAM Sunggal adds 500 L/s, on one control system
IPAM Sunggal added 500 litres per second of capacity for Medan. I handled the instrumentation and SCADA design for the new line.
500L/s
added treated water capacity
The context
IPAM Sunggal's capacity grew through one new treatment line, IPA 7.
A new line means new pumps, new filters and new instruments. All of it has to connect to one control system, and that was our part.
What we did
- 01 · Field
Instruments for the new line
DN 600 electromagnetic flowmeter on raw water. Level and pressure transmitters. pH and turbidity analyzers.
- 02 · Logic
Control and operator screens
Schneider Modicon M221 PLCs and HMIs for IPA 7. Raw water and distribution pump control. Automatic filter backwash sequence.
- 02 · Logic
The drawings too
Electrical schematics, loop drawings and MC-0 documents. Work nobody sees, but without it nothing can be maintained.
The result
- Automation work for the added 500 L/s was completed in June 2025.
- IPA 7 runs on one control system for raw water pumps, distribution pumps and filter backwash.
