Power plants
Thermal energy is a segment engaged in the production of energy (electric, thermal) by burning fossil fuels, biomass or waste, where customers require the ecological operation of production technology with maximum efficiency. The technology is designed for stable and long-term operation without frequent shutdowns.
We offer partial and comprehensive solutions for the management of technological operating sets for the control of boilers, engine rooms and auxiliary non-block operations.
We provide detailed design of solutions according to customer requirements. We process projects from solution design, through production, testing, assembly to commissioning. We also offer the preparation of production documentation.
Advantages of our supplies
- Our own platform SandRA Synergy with a long life cycle
- Openness of the control system
- Use of IoT technology for remote access and operation diagnostics
- Our own development and adaptation to technology requirements
- Gradual replacement or migration of control systems throughout the life cycle
- Optimization of operation and reduction of operating costs
- Interconnection of information systems (unified repository for data sharing and management)
- Ability to ensure compliance with cyber security requirements
Heating plants
We supply control and management systems to operated and new heating plants in the Czech Republic and abroad. We develop, design and manufacture control systems for various types of boilers and for the control of entire technological blocks. We focus on the control of so-called block and non-block operating files. We supply control technologies to reduce emissions of sulfur, nitrogen, mercury and dust particles.
We provide design and supply of control systems for heating plants using any combustion technology. We offer customers comprehensive services in the modernization of control and management systems. In all activities, we adhere to strict operating conditions, including cyber security.

Product portfolio for thermal power engeneering
DCS (Distributed Control System) - To ensure high reliability and security of controlled large-scale technological operations, we design and supply a distributed control system on our own SandRA Synergy platform. DCS also includes HMI (visualization) at the level of engineering and operator stations. Functions such as data archiving, simulation, etc. are a matter of course.
Our company has long-term experience with the management of power blocks at thermal power plants of various outputs. The ZAT control system is ready for data processing and control of individual operational files, including comfortable handling and visualization. We use the SandRA Synergy product on the Z200 platform for the control and diagnostics of power blocks.
We provide monitoring and visualization with the help of products from Czech and foreign manufacturers. Geovap (Reliance) and Moravské přístroje a.s. (ControlWeb) are the Czech manufacturers of software applications. Of the foreign manufacturers, these are mainly Aveva (InTouch) and Siemens (WinCC) applications. If necessary, we can implement a project with SW Cimplicity.
We provide complete delivery, including field instrumentation and cabling.
