Challenges:

  • The existing documentation (wiring diagram, loop drawing, Cause & Effect) did not fully match the conditions in the field.

  • Integrating the new system with the existing system could disturb pump operation.

  • The Fault indicator stayed active even when a pump had stopped normally, because the fault status comes from the existing VSD.

Solutions:

  • Point-to-point verification, and updating the documentation to the actual (as-built) condition.

  • Running logic simulation and offline testing, and implementing during a scheduled shutdown.
