AES Systems designed, built and installed the process CCTV system in the disposal facility. The plant operators use the CCTV system to perform all the chemical processing operations. Working with Washington Demilitarization Company, AES Systems continues to support the facility. The system provides the plant operators with the ability to control processes and view operations remotely, from safely located work stations.

System

The process monitoring system consists of a matrix switching and control system, utilizing over 30 control stations. AES Systems provided more than 60 nitrogen purged/pressurized stainless steel cameras built to the Chemical Stockpile Disposal Program (CSDP) specifications, including heavy duty pan/tilt units. The Umatilla site is the beneficiary of the same advancements in video technology which AES Systems has developed while working with other disposal sites. The unique video issues involved with the chemical environment were overcome by utilizing the previous technology, as well as by developing new products. Interior monitoring of the incinerators and other high temperature environments has required the need for custom engineered video products, some of which are unique to the Umatilla site.

AES Solutions

• Incinerator Monitoring - AES Systems engineered and fabricated cameras capable of direct insertion to the incinerators, providing the operators with the ability to view the actual incineration process, and allowing them to ensure complete destruction of the contaminated materials.

• IPS20 Air Cooling – The IPS20 camera has revolutionized process monitoring. To fill a growing need for the customer, AES Systems developed an air conditioned model for use in high temperature environments. The air cooling modification has no moving parts, providing the customer with a durable and dependable solution which does not require continual servicing. The Umatilla site was the first to benefit from this advancement.
