Ageing infrastructure

Water supply and water treatment systems depend on an extensive network of water and sewer pipes, reservoirs, pump stations, treatment stages and equipment. In many regions, water infrastructure has been in operation for decades, sometimes with minimal investment in modernisation and expansion. It is likely that selective, section-by-section upgrades over the years have led to increased complexity and more numerous interoperability problems.

In other words, ageing infrastructure is a problem that the water supply industry can no longer ignore.

Maximise the potential of your current assets

Using its suite of hardware and software conversion tools, Mitsubishi Electric can reduce downtime when upgrading your legacy automation, minimising engineering time and hardware costs compared to other traditional upgrade paths.

Mitsubishi Electric has an excellent policy for the migration from older hardware and software to new-generation products. Backwards compatibility is one of our fundamental design principles. Our software platform is built on universal connectivity and thus helps to integrate existing equipment and to harvest data from all relevant automation, IT, and IIoT systems.

This has financial and environmental implications. Equipment designed to operate for as long as possible has a much lower total cost of maintenance and it also helps minimise greenhouse gas emissions linked to new equipment manufacturing.

Integrating existing automation systems and components is easy if the system integrator can provide tools for universal connectivity based on open network protocols such as OPC UA and MQTT.
