WOIS is Wartsila’s Operators’ Interface System – a control and monitoring system for power plants. It’s essentially a human-machine interface (HMI) system that helps operate and manage power plants.
The system has several key modules
- Plant operation – the main interface for operators to control the power plant
- Device integration – connects to the power plant’s control network
- Data storage – for long-term process data storage
- Reports – handles the power plant’s reporting system
- Remote connectivity – enables remote monitoring and data sharing
- Management system – handles system monitoring, backup, and restoration
Key features and benefits include:
- Built on industrial-grade server hardware with virtualized operating systems
- Follows cyber security standards (IEC 62443 and NERC CIP)
- Enables remote monitoring with built-in security controls
- Provides automatic data collection and storage
- Includes backup and disaster recovery capabilities
- Helps monitor and control power production, distribution, and other power plant assets in real time
The system is specifically designed for Wärtsilä power plants and can be customized to meet specific needs and requirements.
