Software-Defined Automation for Water & Wastewater
Your SCADA stays. WaterWorksX Edge does the rest.
WaterWorksX Edge reads your site data into one live tag database and serves it back to your control room like any other outstation. Add WX Central later if you want every site on one screen.
How It Works
One Shared Tag Database
Connectors write tags directly to a central local tag database. Every app and protocol reads from the same live source, so you can add new devices or services later without touching what is already running.
- Ingest
- Unified Data Points
- Consume & Analyze
- Pass Back to SCADA
- WX Central
- HydroFlow
Why WaterWorksX Edge?
Built to run unattended at a pump station for years.
Your SCADA Stays As It Is
Your SCADA polls it like a standard RTU.
The Same Setup at Every Site
One schema for every site, and HydroFlow shares tags between sites over your radio links.
Robust Data Plane
Lose the WAN and the site carries on.
Built-In Data Historian
One click turns on logging. No separate historian to buy.
One Login
One login for every app on the box, with no browser warnings.
Stale Data Is Flagged
Every value carries its status and age, all the way to SCADA and reports.
Connectivity
Everything below ships in the box.
| Protocol | Capabilities & Features |
|---|---|
| DNP3 | Master, outstation, router and concentrator. SAv5 per outstation. WITS PSA member, tested against IEEE 1815. |
| HydroFlow | Site-to-site tag sharing over existing radio links. Event driven, and survives a restart. |
| EtherNet/IP | Logix tag browsing, L5X import, and write-back with read-back. |
| Modbus TCP | Polls meters and drives, and serves register maps to SCADA. |
| OPC UA | Client and server, including FactoryTalk Optix. |
| S7 Comms | Siemens S7-300, 400, 1200 and 1500. On 1200 and 1500, enable PUT/GET and use non-optimized data blocks. |
| HCC2 | Reads the HCC2 tag database. No firmware change. |
| Sparkplug B | One outbound mutual-TLS link, buffered through WAN outages. |
The Modular Application Suite
Each app runs on its own, so one can be updated or restarted without touching the rest.
Device Manager
Setup, logging and alarms.
- Configurator: apps, network, licensing and updates.
- Data Points: the shared tag database.
- Data Logger: trends and CSV export.
- Alarms & Events: ISA-18.2 alarms with SMS and on-call escalation.
- Network Diagnostics: traffic and data use.
Field Connectors
Each connector polls on its own, so one slow device never holds up the rest.
- DNP3
- EtherNet/IP
- Modbus TCP
- OPC UA
- Siemens S7
- HCC2
Operations & Analytics
Compliance, efficiency and answers, on the box.
- Water Compliance: daily checks and a 12-month audit register.
- Pump Efficiency: live efficiency against the pump curve.
- Hydro: ask your plant questions in plain English, answered on the box.
Cloud Connection
What runs on the box for WX Central.
- Fleet Bridge: buffered telemetry over one outbound connection.
- Atlas Site Map: the site's comms map.
Optional
WX Central
The multi-site tier of WaterWorksX Edge: one place to see every site. Hosted by us, in your Azure tenancy, on your premises, or a mix.
One Platform
Runs on Your Hardware
The same software package runs on every supported platform, and each service updates on its own. The device is a site decision, not a software one.
One package, any supported device.
Live and operational in Australia and New Zealand. Real sites, real data, 24/7.
Built to the Margo specification (Preview Release 2) for orchestrated deployment. Built for LogixEdge, on the same package.
Secure by Construction
Security that is part of the build, not a project after it.
- Every site has its own certificate, and the broker admits it to its own topics only.
- DNP3 Secure Authentication on the SCADA link.
- A control write needs an allow-listed mapping and the PLC's Local/Remote permission, and is read back.
- Signed releases with a software bill of materials.
Data Quality & Status
What each status means, and where it goes.
| Status | Definition |
|---|---|
| Good | Telemetry is live and within poll window. |
| Bad | Field communications failure. |
| Stale | Data point exceeded expected update interval and was flagged automatically. |
Deployment
Runs on standard industrial edge hardware (Edge Compute, HCC2,
OptixEdge).
The same package on every platform, with each service updated on its own.
Select Hardware
Edge Compute, HCC2 or OptixEdge.
Connect Field Devices
Browse PLCs and pick the tags you need.
Map & Export
Map tags to outstations. Profiles build themselves.
Join WX Central
Scan the label and the box appears in your Client Area.
Software updates are managed centrally and deployed only when you approve them.
