We have teamed with Powell Industries, our parent company, to deliver the PowlSmart ® Substation Automation System (SAS), a fully integrated hardware and software solution providing enhanced process visualization and real-time control for rail transit and automated people mover operations.
Through open-source technology and a modern network based distributed architecture, the PowlSmart® substation offers improved system performance, reliability and maintainability with a lower total cost of ownership.
