Remote Process Control

A self-contained PID controller that provides remote indication, configuration, and automatic control for SC2200 and SC4200.

Automated Coagulation Optimization

Automatically adjusts chemical dosing to maintain the desired water quality based on a user-defined Streaming Current setpoint.

Closed-Loop Control Performance

Uses a 4–20 mA communication signal to enable reliable closed-loop control of the coagulation process.

Flexible Chemical Dosing Integration

Provides a 4–20 mA control output for metering pumps, control valves, and chemical dosing equipment, with built-in signal and alarm connections.

Intelligent Auto-Tuning

Auto-tune technology that automatically analyzes process changes and optimizes PID settings without manual parameter adjustments.

Flexible Installation Options

Wall-mount and panel-mount configurations, allowing convenient installation anywhere, with up to 3,000 feet of separation from connected equipment.

Applications

Water Treatment

Close control of coagulants is necessary to meet drinking water standards. The Milton Roy SCD optimizes the dosing of Alum, Ferric Chloride, Polymer, and other coagulants. This assures efficient control of turbidity, consistent production of high quality water, and maximum removal of giardia and cryptosporidium. With ever increasing water quality standards, the SCD makes sense as the best available technology.

Wastewater Treatment

The Milton Roy SCD is beneficial in applications such as belt press, centrifuge, and dissolved air flotation. The SCD constantly monitors polymer feed, permitting optimal dewatering while reducing chemical usage.

High Purity Water

Pretreatment systems for high purity water that require the addition of a coagulant benefit greatly from a Milton Roy SCD in the process loop. Overdosing or underdosing of polymers can cause fouling of ion exchange resins or membranes. The SCD maintains optimal dosage, eliminating this potential expensive upset.

Industrial Processes

Any process where cationic or anionic chemicals are added are potential SCD applications. The food, petrochemical, and paper industries are finding the Milton Roy SCD to be a valuable tool for optimizing the product quality.
