TAS leveraged the performance of Ignition, MQTT, and cellular communication to solve its smart field needs. The third problem was trying to complete this with the just-released Ignition 8 and MQTT modules not yet supported with 8. Building a custom architecture that assured data synchronization would be a monumental task. The second problem was how to share data across all sites and ensure data synchronization in a network that is based on cellular communications that is known to periodically go down. The biggest problem was how to create a “smart field” with little to no telemetry infrastructure that would allow TAS to enhance pipeline and disposal facilities’ efficiencies. The project began in September 2019 and now has 37 disposal facilities and roughly 75 pipeline tie-ins that equate to 736,000 tags and over 12,000 configured alarms. Built around a single gateway with multiple disposal facilities and pipeline tie-ins, Texas Automation Systems (TAS) leveraged Ignition and MQTT to centralize all assets for the end user. This is a large-scale, rapidly deployed wastewater disposal project. Creating a Smart Field with Ignition and MQTT
