SCADA and Industrial IoT: frequently asked questions

SCADA stands for Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition: a system that gathers readings from equipment on site, shows them on central monitoring and control screens, records alarms and events, and lets the operator control equipment remotely.

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) connects industrial sensors and equipment to a secure cloud platform, so you can see, analyse and get alarms from all your sites from anywhere, on a computer or a phone.

A device on site that gathers the readings of sensors and devices and sends them, encrypted, to the cloud platform. The HS-IIoT gateway stores readings on a memory card while the internet is down and sends them when it is back.

The cost depends on the number of lines, generators, tanks and sites. We survey the site or talk with you, then send a free quote with an estimate of what the system saves in your facility.

Yes. The Iraqi HS-IIoT engineering team designs the hardware and the software itself, from the gateway and sensors on site to the cloud platform and the app, then installs, commissions and stays responsible for them.

Both: monitoring for all equipment, and control where it is needed, such as running pumps by hand or automatically, according to each user's rights.

Instantly on Telegram and as phone notifications, with the value, the duration and what to do, and with clear priorities following ISA-18.2 so repeated alarms do not flood you.

ISA-101 for operator interface design, ISA-18.2 for alarm management, and IEC 62443 for industrial cybersecurity.

Yes, for any source and any period, as CSV, Excel or PDF, with daily and monthly reports ready for management.

HS-IIoT is an Iraqi company that designs and delivers SCADA and Industrial IoT (IIoT) systems: from the survey and installation on site to the platform, reports and support after commissioning, in Baghdad, Basra, Erbil and every governorate of Iraq.

SCADA monitors and controls a site or a station through central screens; IIoT connects equipment and sensors to the cloud so you can see and analyse every site from anywhere. HS-IIoT brings both together: industrial monitoring screens, a cloud platform and alarms on your phone.

Yes. We deliver projects and support in every governorate of Iraq, including Baghdad, Basra, Nineveh, Najaf and Karbala, and in the Kurdistan Region: Erbil, Sulaymaniyah and Duhok.

The gateway keeps recording and stores the readings on a memory card, then sends them all when the link is back. No reading is deleted before the server confirms it arrived.

Yes. The sensors fit your existing equipment without modifying it and without stopping work.

The link is encrypted over a private network, every user has defined rights, and keys and passwords are never shown once entered.

Usually one to a few days depending on the site, and monitoring starts as soon as it is installed.

Often from the first breakdown prevented or the first fuel loss found. We give you an estimate for your site in the quote.

Yes, all your sites on one map, with rights per branch and per employee.
