Bristol® ControlWave® ExpressPAC

SCADA RTU Package

Bristol® ControlWave® ExpressPAC, from Emerson Process Management, is a highly integrated pre- engineered package solution that combines the new ControlWave Express SCADA RTU with a variety of options commonly required in SCADA applications.

These include a compact Nema 4X rated enclosure, power supply and solar panel options with battery backup, operator display/keypad input options, and wireless communication options. Standardization eliminates the need for in-house panel and packag- ing design and fabrication resulting in lower initial installation cost. This also standardizes the mainte- nance effort to reduce the long term cost of owner- ship.

As an integrated RTU in a SCADA system, ControlWave ExpressPAC has the unique attributes required for wide area networks, without sacrificing process control performance.
