Partner Overview
ACI provides the Municipal Market sector with the Open Architecture IS/1-SA SCADA-Telemetry and Facilities Management Platform. The IS/1-SA is our field-proven architecture based upon our systems introduced in 1990. It offers a secure, state-of-the-art, and completely customizable platform with the comfort of a non-proprietary system. Digital, analog, and custom I/O with HMI, graphics, trending, reporting, and alarms functionality are included.
The SA stands for “Scalable Architecture,” which allows the system to GROW from a small application to a large-scale application without redesign. The system can be sized to over 10,000 I/O points with our Master-Sub Master topography and runs on all popular operating systems. The remotes can communicate over a wide variety of communications options, namely wire-line/Data Highway, telephone & cellular, multiband radio, and microwave and spread spectrum. Our control panels also are UL, CUL, and CSA approved.
