SCADA Systems & Integration – Bristol, UK
DelaControl designs, builds and upgrades SCADA systems for industrial plants and machine builders across the UK and worldwide. We write the SCADA alongside the PLC software, so the screens, alarms and data match how your plant actually runs. From our Bristol base we handle the full job: design, software, factory testing, site commissioning and operator training. We work to ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001.
What we deliver
-
New SCADA systems: plant overviews, process screens, trends, reports, logs and alarm handling, designed around your functional description.
-
SCADA upgrades and migrations: moving ageing systems onto current, supported platforms, for example rebuilding a Wonderware InTouch system in Siemens WinCC.
-
PLC and SCADA together: we migrate or write the PLC software at the same time, so the whole control system is upgraded in one project with one point of responsibility.
-
Integration with your existing equipment: connecting SCADA to the PLCs, drives and remote I/O already on site, without changing how your plant is controlled.
-
Commissioning and training: on-site commissioning by our controls engineers, with operator training at your site or our Bristol facility.
Upgrades, platforms and sectors
Old SCADA often runs on unsupported PCs, outdated software and PLCs you can no longer buy parts for. We upgrade the PLC and the SCADA together. The PLC code moves to a current platform such as Siemens TIA Portal, and the SCADA is rebuilt on a supported system like Siemens WinCC.
We also work with existing systems such as Wonderware InTouch when we upgrade or migrate them. Your control philosophy stays the same, we record any logic changes in a migration report, and we test everything at our factory before it goes to site.
As a Siemens Solution Partner, we deliver SCADA for waste and energy plants, process industries and manufacturing. DelaControl is trusted in demanding sectors including defence, nuclear, aerospace, marine and high-speed manufacturing, where uptime and documentation matter as much as the software.
SCADA FAQs
Can you upgrade our SCADA without changing how the plant runs?
Yes. We work from your existing functional description and keep the control philosophy the same. Any logic changes that come out of the migration are documented so you know exactly what changed.
Can you upgrade the PLC at the same time?
Yes, and it’s often the best approach. On a recent waste incineration project we migrated an S7-300 to an S7-1500 F-CPU on TIA Portal and rebuilt the SCADA in WinCC as one project.
Do you test before going to site?
Yes. Systems are factory acceptance tested against a test schedule agreed with you, so you see it working before it reaches site.
Do you provide training?
Yes. We run operator training sessions on site or at our Bristol facility.
Do you work outside the UK?
Yes. We deliver projects across the UK and worldwide.
