Water and wastewater systems require reliable, continuous operation with clear visibility into distributed assets. Facilities often include a mix of legacy equipment, remote sites, and evolving regulatory requirements, creating a need for control systems that are dependable, maintainable, and easy for operators to understand. FDS Engineering develops control and SCADA systems that support consistent operation, reduce downtime, and provide operators with the information they need to manage the system effectively.

Typical systems include lift stations, treatment plants, and remote telemetry sites, all requiring coordinated control, reliable communication, and clear operator interfaces. FDS Engineering delivers solutions that integrate these systems into a unified platform, improving operational awareness and simplifying system management.

Why FDS Engineering?

FDS Engineering focuses on how systems actually operate — delivering control solutions that are reliable, maintainable, and built for real-world conditions.

Experience with active, operating facilities
Controls-first approach to system design
Practical solutions for distributed infrastructure
Combined control and electrical expertise

Typical Applications

Lift station control systems (new and upgrades)
Booster station pump control
Water tower level control systems
Treatment process control systems
Remote site monitoring and telemetry
SCADA systems for distributed infrastructure

Approach

Water systems are fundamentally about moving and managing flow — maintaining levels, pressures, and system balance across a distributed network. FDS Engineering develops control systems that ensure stable operation through coordinated pump control, well-defined sequencing, and reliable system response under changing conditions.

Pump sequencing and alternation
Level and pressure-based control
System interlocks and fail-safe operation
Automated startup and recovery after outages

SCADA Systems and UPGRADES

Effective operation requires clear visibility into system performance across all sites. FDS Engineering develops SCADA systems that provide centralized monitoring and control, allowing operators to quickly understand system status and respond to abnormal conditions.

Real-time system monitoring
Alarm management in accordance with ISA standards
Historical trending and reporting
Remote access to distributed sites
Integration of existing and new infrastructure

Many water and wastewater systems operate with aging or pieced-together control systems. FDS Engineering provides upgrades and integration services to modernize these systems while maintaining continuity of operation.
