What is Pristine™

Pristine is a Supervisory Control & Data Acquisition (SCADA) Software. It is a 1

multi package or applications running under common sphere. Pristine is multi-station configuration software. Hence, as number of stations increases, they can be easily configured in an existing setup, without adding any extra cost.

Pristine can be used for any Data Acquisition and Control Application as it can be configured for specialised applications.

However, there are predefined modules for specific applications where the configuration becomes negligible or eliminated. Some of the examples are Solar Power Generation, Wind Power Generation; Gas based generation, Pollution Control application, weather monitoring application, Plant Automation, Process Control / Automation, Fermentor applications and many more.

Pristine has web connectivity and web based modules. The data generated at the plant level can be uploaded on the web server or at cloud computing. so that it can be viewed from anywhere. It also has Short Messaging Service (SMS) channel. This enables alarms and other crucial information to be passed on to important decision makers on the fly.

Pristine package also consist of mobile application. It works on Android™ or iPOS™ devices.

Pristine is multilingual software. The menus, messages & reports can be configured in any language supported by operating system.

Pristine has built in OPC (Object Linking and Embedding for Process Control) server. The server can pick up data from virtually any machine including analogue signals like 4 to 20 mA. This makes it extremely versatile OPC server and enhances capabilities of Pristine.

Pristine can interact with the field with PLC (Programmable Logic Controllers) or with just field I/O (Input/Output) controls. This gives the same flexibility at a cheaper cost for various slow resource loading applications.

Pristine is Personal Computer based data collection and analysis software. It has a controlling feature making it as a very powerful SCADA system.

!Features of Pristine for Solar & Storage Industry

Pristine has been tuned for Solar and Storage Industry. Following features of Pristine makes it one of the best software packages.

Multi-thread OPC server to acquire data - Pristine has a built in OPC server that can interact with any available inverter, string box, energy meter. Most of these devices work with MODBUS™ protocol or IEC 1106 protocol. As it is own developed OPC, any proprietary communication protocol can also be integrated. Apart from standard OPC feature, there is analogue channel in OPC as well. This makes it possible to collect the data from weather sensors like pyranometer, PT100 etc. The field inputs from substation can be integrated with Digital I/O channels. OPC server has multi thread channels hence data that is required to be acquired at faster speeds separated on a different thread. Each thread has a different read out cycle.

Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) - Pristine has robust, strong RDBMS, Microsoft™ MS SQL. The data security, redundancy, roll backs are all managed with professional speed and ease.

Real Time Display of Data. The acquired data by OPC can be displayed in graphical or statistical format.

Historical and Statistical Analysis. The data that is collected in data base is a strong collection of information to analyse, losses, events and performance.

Predictions. Pristine has a strong prediction module that computes the expected mathematical energy generation based on weather satellite and real time data. This is specially useful to compute the losses based on external factors like loss of grid or to give forecasting report to Grid.

Alarm, history, statistics & notification - Pristine has a strong configurable alarm module. A user can set up audio video alarm at local level or a trigger a process at local level or can send an alarm condition via SMS or email to selected operators.

Reports, Auto Reports, Customised Reports. Pristine has a reporting tool. The reports can be fully customised. They can be manually triggered or can be sent automatically at predefined time or even based on local sun rise, sun set time.

FTP, Cloud, Web and Mobile App for Remote Control. Pristine is mainly plant control and monitoring software. However, it has a strong communication channel for external monitoring. Any local parameter can be sent on cloud on real time basis or on FTP server on fix interval or

!Pristine Web Portal. Pristine also has a mobile Application for Android and iOS.

Plant Control, Active/Reactive Power & Phase. Auto / Manual. Most of the recent plants has a requirement from Electricity Grid to Automatically Adjust plant Active, Reactive power and phase based on grid command. Pristine has this feature. It has been successfully working in Germany and in Republic of Senegal.

EMS (Energy Management System) It is needed in battery and storage systems to manage critical and non critical load dynamically based on battery condition and grid availability statistics. Pristine has a feature to do the same.

BMS (Battery Management System) In case of battery system, continuous monitoring of battery health is an essential task. The charging and discharging currents, depth of discharge, counting charging cycles are essential task for Battery Management System. Pristine Undertakes the same.

Multilingual - Pristine is a multilingual software. Reports and the Screens are interfaces with local needs.

Flexibility - Software is essentially a service. A good service needs flexibility as every use & every location is different. Pristine software is completely flexible and modifications and customisations are possible. Pristine understands that every customer has different method of calculation of Plant Performance Ratio (PR), Calculations of some specific parameters, colour scheme and dash board requirements, specific non standard instruments. Many a site reliable internet connection is not available. Pristine takes care of all these situations.

Fix Pricing and Licensing Policy - Pristine is not charged on yearly subscription basis. It is one time fixed cost. Once paid the license is life time. There is an optional annual maintenance contract but it is basically to get free updates.

Plant Monitoring 24 X 7 - Our plant monitoring centre in India, can monitor the plant, (if permitted by customer), 24 X 7 from our plant monitoring centre. This is a separately chargeable service.

Pristine has web connectivity and web based modules. The data generated at the plant level can be uploaded on the web server so that it can be viewed from anywhere. It also has Short Messaging Service (SMS) channel. This enables alarms and other crucial information to be passed on to important decision makers on the fly.

What is a Plant Control

Most important information any plant owner would need is, what is the efficiency at which the plant is running. This information may be needed by the top management but on field, plant in-charge would need information about process flow, consumption pattern, critical parameters like load, generation level, temperature, failures, maintenance cycles etc. This is information only but based on this information some decisions have to be made. Pristine can handle all these situations. It can analyse data at the same time when it acquires it. Pristine can take necessary action based on that data and process logic, that is pre programmed.

Pristine can use any of the controlling inverters or string boxes depending on transformer temperature.

Many electricity companies like to control Active Power, Reactive Power, Power Factor depending on the grid status. Pristine allows to do that.

What is Industry specific Need

The specific needs for the solar power plants are:

1. Interface with weather data on real time basis. This includes solar radiation, solar duration, wind speed, wind direction, ambient temperature etc. Based on this data, real plant efficiency (PE),


Page ! / !5 20


!Performance Ratio (PR), Plant Load Factor (PLF) or Capacity Utilisation Factor (CUF) can be calculated.

2. Interface with mathematical solar expected radiations. Based on the plant latitude and longitude, expected solar radiations can be computed. This gives the trend of power generation in advance. This is very important to determine the cash flow. Needless to say, this is only an expected trend and weather variations can affect the same but at same time, it gives certain indication. If plant has proper Internet connectivity, this trend will automatically get adjusted with the use of Internet based weather satellite data.

3. Solar PV plant has many modular units while photovoltaic plant has multiple modules. Normally, they need not to be individually monitored. But they need to be periodically scanned for efficiency. If the problem is detected then it should indicate which module has failed or needs cleaning. In Pristine, alarm on System or SMS with X & Y coordinated of the module, indicates the plant maintenance team to locate and attend only the specific module.

4. Solar Power Plants are initially working on some kind of Government help either in form of subsidy or special feed in tariff. Government need certain mandatory, periodic reports. Most of the times reports are in specific format and in specific regional languages. Also their format and computation method changes. Pristine can achieve this.

5. Efficiency of solar modules is three functions analysis. Efficiency depends on temperature, radiation and load. For effective analysis, the software needs three dimensional graphs as well as polar graphs. Pristine can support both these graphs.

All these specific needs are addressed in solar module. The technical idea for the same is that on broad data acquisition and control software, we have piggybacked some special modules. These modules give entire necessary user interface and reduce time for customisation and implementation.

Why Pristine Software

There are various reasons. They are:

1. Pristine is not a bought out item. It is completely developed by Kaihatsu. Hence, specific needs, specific customisation is encouraged and we have an ability to do it.

2. Software needs keep on changing. As the software is completely developed by us, the change and development is under our control. Hence it will be supported for now and years to come.

!3. Pristine has strong web module. The data is transferred on web. Hence

plant operation can be viewed from any part of the world.

4. Pristine has inter-link with other external information e.g. weather analysers, Internet weather data as well as mathematical expected values. This makes it easy to predict plant output, cash flow and realistically check plant efficiency.

5. Pristine can diagnose module level and give alarm based on individual fault. This becomes very easy for maintenance team to identify and rectify the problem. This reduces the losses.

6. Pristine can be configured for any regional language. This makes it convenient to operate by local staff as well as the report can be generated in local language for Government submission.

7. Pristine works with strong Data base Microsoft® SQL. Pristine also has auto back up facility. The data is protected.

8. Pristine is multi-station software. Hence, it can be expanded based on plant size any time without adding any cost. The speed and capacity is only restricted by hardware and not by software.

9. Pristine has a library of drivers. The drivers are available and can be downloaded from our website. Hence, adding more instruments will have no effect on software. For a specific instrument, Kaihatsu can undertake driver development.

10.The interface is very similar to any Microsoft Windows® product. With the on line help, it is very easy to install and configure the software. Keys, styles and functions are similar to any standard products. This decreases the learning time.

11. Web module supports mobile devices and mobile browsers. Hence plant can be monitored even by mobile device. The historical data on web is projected by password.

12.Double Data base system. Specially tuned for remote Conditions. Most of the SCADA software calls for fix IP to monitor the plant. Pristine uses a standard modem. Hence, data is stored locally as well as at remote location like web server, cloud server etc. Both data bases are synced as and when internet is available.

13.Last but not the least is Pristine cost is not dependent on tags. Hence you can free to add any amount of tags, your operating system can support without ever to worry on the cost.

Limitations of Pristine Software

Before you order Pristine Software, please understand limitations of this software.

1. Pristine is not an un-attended automatic software. It is not in the category of “life supporting software”

2. An attended with fairly good computer skill is needed on site. The person can be trained free of cost by Kaihatsu.

3. Pristine is a PC based software. The same PC should not be used for multi-tasking other applications like office work, playing games or watching multimedia etc. Performance of either application will get affected.

4. PCs do get “hanged” or “in-active mode” This happens with all softwares. This has nothing to do with Pristine. The Operating System, Hardware, Over Temperature etc can be a cause for this phenomena.

5. Quality and configuration of SCADA PC does affect performance of SCADA system.

6. Pristine is “Data Collection and Analysis” software. It is not a “data correction” software. It just uses the data given by instrument or sensor. It does not “adjusts” the data.

7. Pristine as software can give high performance, with high speed scanning, redundancy of all data. For this, hardware must be of that grade. One cannot expect to get all these features with ordinary office PC.

8. Communication failures do happen because of wiring, sensors or hardware. Pristine does not contribute to communication failures. They need to be manually repaired.

9. Decreasing the polling interval increases data and reduces storage capacity. This also increases, searching time as well as report generation time. Hence, please select polling interval wisely and optimum to necessity.

10. Sensor hardware need to be properly selected. Analogue Sensors (4 to 20 mA) with long wiring loop in high voltage field does cause a communication problem. Long wiring length of RS 485 or LAN network, reduces communication baud rate and increases the data collection time.

11. Web module and email Alarm module does need internet connection. SMS alarm module does need GPRS modem with network connectivity. Pristine cannot correct internet or network issues.
