Parijat Distributed Control System

Parijat Distributed Control System (PDCS) is very versatile and scalable embedded system. It is a newly developed product that uses the latest technology to provide the control and monitoring for your application. It employs the latest Single Board Computer (SBC) as the controller and various peripheral interface cards (PIC) for monitoring and controlling the field devices. The salient key features of the system are:

Features

Overall Features:

  • Suitable for distributed control application
