Notice Title

Supply of OMRON NX Series PLC Equipment for System control, interlocking and automation for Diamond II Project

Notice Description

Located on the Harwell Science and Innovation Campus in Oxfordshire, Diamond Light Source (DLS) is a leading-edge facility for science, engineering and innovation. DLS allows researchers from academia and industry to investigate the structure and behaviour of the world around us at the atomic and molecular level. The facility is about to undergo a major upgrade to its main accelerator system which requires the upgrade of its associated control hardware, this tender is prepared with the intention of procuring the supply of PLC hardware to be used in this upcoming upgrade and for a framework for supply of PLC hardware for other projects following the upgrade of the Diamond facility. The contract is for the supply of Omron NX series PLC equipment to be integrated into all areas of the control system alongside our existing installed Omron PLC equipment. Diamond currently has a large installed base of PLC systems managing Vacuum protection, Interlocking and Automation across all disciplines. Diamond has invested large amounts of time & effort into delivering the infrastructure to support this platform. Device drivers for the EPICS platform as the top-level SCADA, revision control system for back up and version control, 'Best Practice' and 'Code Creation' guidance documentation for third party vendors of turn-key equipment to follow have all been set up to ensure consistency. DLS also has a large amount of pre-configured templated programming structures for all commonly used devices found on Diamond to ensure quick and simple configuration & deployment. The Omron Programming software is commonly understood and integrates well with our chosen drawing office package for the generation of EPICS identification & Global variables in the form of publishable TAGS. It also uses a single software platform for all PLC, HMI, Vision & Networking equipment which makes firmware & software upgrades and patching simple.
