New panel for a chilled water system using the Weintek CMT3218XP 21.5" HMI - Great looking piece of kit. Looking forward to getting this one installed on site ๐ Graphics to follow when commissioning is underway!
We'll be using this as part of an IO link system to display temperature, pressure and flow rate for 14 machines. For systems like this I always opt for IO link as it provides us quick and easy expansion to the system.
The systems we design are very versatile and can be used in a range of applications, using only the best equipment we can provide solutions for any industry.

๐ง COD Water Monitoring โ Integrating Weintek HMI & Schneider PLC
In wastewater treatment systems, the Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) value is a crucial parameter that must be reported to the Ministry of Environment (KLHK) to ensure that wastewater is properly managed and does not harm the environment.
Recently, I completed a COD Water Monitoring project where the COD values are displayed in real-time on a Weintek HMI and automatically control valves through a Schneider PLC.
I developed both the PLC program and the HMI interface myself, using Modbus TCP for seamless two-way communication between the devices.
To prevent corrosion in humid environments, I used a polycarbonate panel enclosure. This material provides better resistance to moisture and mild chemicals, making it an ideal choice for automation systems in water treatment areas.
๐ก Lesson learned:
Through this project, I realized that simplicity in HMI design plays a vital role โ a clear and informative interface allows operators to quickly understand the system condition and operate it efficiently without confusion.
Industrial automation is not only about efficiency but also a commitment to protecting our environment ๐.

Control panel for the equipment upgrade of an existing waterplay area at a riverside park in regional QLD. IT features Schneider Electric switchgear and a Weintek HMI. The board provided control and water treatment to 3 key areas:
- The "Water Stream" region, where water is pumped into a boat feature and trickling down through a concrete stream.
- "Splashpad" region, where water is pumped into a series of jumping and cascade jets, draining to a perimeter strip drain.
- "Wreck Pool" region, where water is pumped into a shallow pool through eyeballs in one wall, draining through to an overflow grate.
All water then drains to a balance tank where it is then treated and returned to the other end of the tank.
