DESMI already had extensive experience from BWMS software, but aquaculture brought a different set of expectations. In aquaculture, operators need fast overview, clear status information and simple day-to-day operation.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"697\" height=\"548\" src=\"https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/uv-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-58574\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/uv-2.png 697w, https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/uv-2-350x275.png 350w, https:\/\/www.expo21xx.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/uv-2-132x104.png 132w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 697px) 100vw, 697px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo by DESMI<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>Therefore, the HMI was redesigned with a more user-focused layout: fewer buttons, a simpler overview and the key operational values visible where the operator needs them. The main HMI screen presents core data such as dose setpoint, actual dose, UV intensity, UV transmission, flow, pressure, temperature, lamp power and system status in one operational view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This reflects DESMI\u2019s innovation approach: not innovation for the sake of adding features, but innovation focused on making advanced UV treatment easier, safer and more reliable for the customer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The software continuously manages the relationship between UV dose, flow, UV intensity and lamp power. Depending on the operator\u2019s chosen UV dose and the water\u2019s UV-Transmission, the AquaShield unit can optimize energy consumption by dimming the lamps to reach the requested UV-dose setpoint. This allows the system to deliver carefully dosed UV treatment while supporting efficient power use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Built-in compliance and easy system integration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A key customer expectation in aquaculture is documented and reliable compliance. The software has therefore been developed with NVI requirements built into the control philosophy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if an operator accidentally enters a dose setpoint that would otherwise take the system outside compliance, the system will not regulate below the minimum NVI requirement. In other words, compliance is not left solely to the operator; it is supported by the software logic itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another important part of the development was integration. Aquaculture sites often already have their own site control systems, and customers expect equipment to fit into their existing operational setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AquaShield was therefore designed to integrate easily with the customer\u2019s Site Control System, allowing the UV units to be monitored and controlled through the customer\u2019s own interface. The manual also describes how the UV system can exchange start, run and flow-related signals with the site control system through analog signals or digital communication.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The result is a software platform that combines DESMI\u2019s proven UV control experience with a purpose-built aquaculture interface. It supports simpler commissioning, easier operation, customer control system integration, energy-conscious dose regulation and built-in compliance logic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AquaShield is therefore more than a control system \u2014 it is a customer-driven software development created to make advanced UV treatment practical, reliable and easy to operate in modern aquaculture installations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information visit: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.desmi.com\/\">desmi.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When DESMI began developing the AquaShield UV Control Software for aquaculture UV systems, the ambition was clear: create one intelligent software platform that could operate across the full Aquaculture UV range, including [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":58609,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[682],"tags":[3255,2858,1110,3257,3256],"class_list":["post-58572","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-process-industry","tag-alternative-fuel-pumps","tag-cargo-pump","tag-centrifugal-pumps","tag-scrubber-pumps","tag-triple-screw-pumps"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.8.1 -
