Remote monitoring case of fishery and aquaculture

1、 Introduction

Install the CLC-16R cloud logic controller of Blue Bee in the electrical control cabinet of fishery and aquaculture to achieve control of the aquaculture system, as well as remote monitoring and alarm of the cloud platform. Real time collection of site data and remote monitoring of site status (water quality, operation, alarm records). At the same time, it is also possible to remotely set and adjust the operating parameters of the site. And can achieve remote debugging of site logic running programs. Ultimately, remote control and maintenance of integrated aquaculture equipment will be achieved. Improved management capabilities and efficiency, and reduced management costs.

2、 The difficulties faced

1. Water quality is of utmost importance for high-density fishing and aquaculture. Abnormal water quality parameters or equipment failures and shutdowns can cause irreversible losses to aquaculture.

2. The aquaculture environment requires 24-hour monitoring, and manual water temperature and quality testing and control are relatively cumbersome. The operation and management of various equipment are complex and time-consuming, which invisibly increases the cost of manpower and material resources

3. Traditional aquaculture is dominated by retail investors, with extensive production management methods and insufficient individual production capacity, making it difficult to ensure product quality.

3、 Solution

Plan: Mainly using CLC-16R as the control unit to achieve automatic control of breeding equipment and cloud platform networking function

(1) Remote monitoring

Real time collection of pH, ORP, water temperature, water quality, pH, dissolved oxygen value, water flow rate, conductivity and other data, as well as operational data of various equipment. In case of abnormal water body parameters, the equipment will issue abnormal alarm reminders. The system can also automatically control equipment such as aerators, feeding machines, and water pumps based on parameter information. Mobile phones or computers can view real-time water quality and aquaculture area conditions, saving manpower and improving the quality of aquaculture products.

(2) Automation logic control

According to the process, write control programs for CLC-16R or PLC, calculate the deviation between target parameters and actual parameters, as well as changes in indoor environment, and automatically control equipment such as oxygenation pumps, lighting, water pumps, etc. It can achieve functions such as oxygenation, light supplementation, water change, temperature increase, and feeding. And combine with the remote monitoring function of the EMCP platform to achieve unmanned operation of the integrated sewage station.

(3) Cloud configuration screen

It can continuously monitor key aquatic environmental parameters such as dissolved oxygen, water temperature, pH, etc. in water for 7 * 24 hours. Through data reports, change curves and real-time data return, managers can transfer the oxygen content, temperature, light and other parameters of the aquaculture base water quality and on-site meteorological parameters to the Internet platform. It is possible to visually see the real-time operating status of the equipment, remotely control the equipment, and achieve visual management of on-site equipment.

(4) Remote alarm

It can monitor various data of the aquaculture system 24 hours a day. When the system detects faults or abnormal situations in the heating equipment, as well as large differences between the monitored data and the set values, the gateway will promptly notify the responsible person through various methods (telephone voice, SMS, message push, webpage voice, etc.). In order for management personnel to timely grasp the relevant situation and dynamics and make corresponding adjustments.

4、 Value

Through the EMCP IoT cloud platform, remote monitoring of fisheries and aquaculture can be achieved quickly and at a low cost without the need for programming, installation and operation of software, or hiring IT engineers.

Improving the information management of the breeding system allows customers to view and operate breeding equipment anytime and anywhere, and equipment manufacturers can also provide remote guidance for after-sales operation and maintenance, truly bringing convenience and benefits to customers.

3. The Blue Bee device has stable performance and powerful functions. The platform operation is simple and easy to learn, making it convenient for grassroots personnel to operate.

4. Implement a 7 * 24 security operation and maintenance mechanism, through remote monitoring of the gateway and intelligent alarms, to help enterprises and users improve their response speed for troubleshooting and problem-solving. It can receive timely alarm information about abnormal water quality, handle abnormal situations in a timely manner, and avoid serious losses caused by major accidents in high-density aquaculture.
