WellControl from Phoenix Contact allows the user to purchase a proven solution, simply connect a power supply, configure and run.

WellControl is a pre-programmed, configurable solution from Phoenix Contact that carries out all the necessary control and regulation tasks for ground-water wells. Guided parameterisation with no programming at all ensures easy start-up.

The field devices are connected via the Waterworx process library from Phoenix Contact. Pre-programmed function blocks enable efficient engineering of the systems. A comprehensive surge protection and power supply concept ensures the required security of supply and allows servicing to be planned. The decentralised arrangement of facilities in a water treatment plant makes connection to a control centre indispensable. The easy-to-use, standardised IEC 60870-5-104 remote control protocol makes connecting the solution to the control centre easy.
