From single pump stations to distributed utility networks, we deliver the control, monitoring and telemetry systems that keep Nigerian water and utility operations running reliably — often across wide geographic areas with intermittent connectivity.
Water and utility operations in Nigeria face a specific set of constraints: geographically distributed assets, unreliable grid power at remote sites, the need for local autonomy when communications fail, and operational teams stretched across many locations.
Light Automations delivers the PLC, SCADA and telemetry systems that address this. Our architectures emphasise local autonomy — each pump station, treatment plant or reservoir can operate on its own — with a central SCADA layer that provides visibility, analytics, and operator control when communications are available.
Key capabilities include water treatment process control, pump sequencing and cascade control, level and flow instrumentation, and distributed telemetry infrastructure.
The operational realities that shape every automation decision in this sector.
Remote pump stations, treatment plants, and reservoirs need local autonomy. Our PLC-based architectures let each site operate standalone with central SCADA visibility.
GSM, radio, and fibre options engineered to site conditions. Graceful degradation when comms are down; automatic reconnection when restored.
Full field instrumentation selection and calibration — ultrasonic, radar, differential pressure, and magnetic flow meters. Lifecycle calibration programmes.
Duty/standby, lead/lag, cascade and flow-tracking control strategies — engineered to reduce pump wear and optimise energy consumption.
Dosing, filtration, and quality monitoring automation. Recipe management, compliance reporting, and audit-ready data logging.
Because utility teams are often lean, our commissioning includes structured operator training and clear HMI design — so local teams can operate confidently without vendor handholding.
The capabilities most commonly requested by Nigerian water and utility operators.
PLC-based pump station control with local autonomy and remote telemetry. Supports duty/standby, lead/lag, and cascade operation with integrated protection.
Centralised SCADA spanning multiple remote sites — giving operators real-time visibility, historical trends, alarm management, and performance reporting.
Field instrumentation selection, installation, and calibration. Lifecycle calibration programmes with documented traceability.
Process automation for water treatment: dosing control, filtration, quality monitoring, and compliance reporting. Integration with laboratory data systems.
