OPERATORS AND USERS

Efficiency meets performance and designSnowvisual is the product of many years’ experience and expertise covering everything to do with snowmaking technology and automation. Snowvisual minimizes the amount of resources used while maximizing snow volumes and without compromising the supreme quality of the snow produced. This has been done by enhancing and fine-tuning its efficiency and its automatic system over many years.

AN IDEAL WIN-WIN SCENARIO:

Fully automatic system controlFull automation allows snow gun operators to make efficient use of the increasingly short windows offering suitable weather conditions. As soon as the operating conditions required for snowmaking are fulfilled, Snowvisual uses its activated automatic system to start up the snowmaking system efficiently and in the blink of an eye.

WEATHER, TEMPERATURE, & HUMIDITY

Accurate weather data recording optimizes

control over the entire system

EVENT & ALARM MANAGEMENT

Key operating information such as starts/stops,

operating states and faults is provided in real

time by text message or e-mail according

to the desired settings

AUTOMATION

The system components installed are utilized efficiently,

with pumping and compressor stations interacting

with snow guns and weather stations

CompatibilitySNOWVISUAL: ONE PLATFORM, VARIOUS MODULESSnowvisual is the core element in our snowmaking system. Thanks to its modules, which are the result of many years’ ongoing development, it can be aligned precisely with the requirements and circumstances of the mountain and its existing systems. With Snowvisual it is possible to integrate existing snowmaking equipment and combine it all in one compact system.

COMMUNICATIONSnowvisual comes with a variety of communication drivers for use with standard industrial protocols (Modbus, TCP/IP, Modbus RTU, Profibus DP, etc. are standard interfaces), enabling external systems and devices to be integrated easily.

OPTIMIZED COMMUNICATION VIA OPTICAL FIBER/ETHERNET, COPPER CABLES, AND WIRELESS TECHNOLOGYTo guarantee maximum reliability and ultra-fast communication, serial field communications (optical fiber, cable, or wireless technology) are spread across multiple communications servers. Large data transmissions are mainly made via optical fiber/Ethernet, while special copper cables are primarily used to communicate along new field lines for snow guns. Existing or other large areas can be connected using wireless or radio technology. Our technicians produce the ideal design and configuration for this process even before the planning stage is complete

Charts & StatisticsData analysis allows snowmaking system operators to access the right information at the right time and is the main prerequisite for increasing productivity and for identifying any irregularities quickly.

SNOWVISUAL DELIVERS A RANGE OF HIGHLY INFORMATIVE STATISTICS:

TEMPERATURE | HUMIDITY | WET BULB TEMPERATURE | WATER TEMPERATURE WATER PRESSURE | PERFORMANCE | FLOW RATE | ENERGY

SNOW VOLUME AND MUCH MORE

PRODUCTION REPORT: Even in the standard version of Snowvisual, customers are able to calculate consumption data for all their snow guns and pits over any desired period of time. Automatic daily reports can also be generated (and exported as CSV or PDF files).

NEW! MEASURING SNOW HEIGHT: The latest version allows customers to set up an interface with their snow height measuring system and display the corresponding data. The XML import tool prepares the XML export data from the snow height measuring system and makes them available in numerical and chart form.

Resource ManagementHandling resources correctly is extremely important for both operators and company management. Using water, air, and electricity in the best possible way helps to cut costs and optimize snow volumes.

Key to all this is resource management, which is largely provided by the following functions: reporting, rate of water consumption, measuring snow height and priority control. The targeted use of these resources enables an extremely cost-effective snowmaking setup without compromising on the customary quality.

SNOW PRODUCTION VOLUME: In detailed mode, the current rate of water supply to the pit is displayed. This function allows operators to identify where more snow needs to be produced and where minimum coverage or the target has already been achieved.

Diagnostics The diagnostics function enables various system operating states and potentialfaults to be displayed, analyzed, and rectified:

COMMUNICATION FAULTS Communication faults are

logged, saved, and displayed in order of priority

ALARM TRANSMISSION Notification of faults and operating states is sent in real time by text message or e-mail depending

on the settings

ALARM LOG All operating states and faults

affecting all system components are listed

STARTUP SIMULATORCustomers can set the temperatures

and simulate the startup of their snow guns before the snowmaking

season gets under way

User-friendly interface The control software is simple to operate and has a user-friendly interface. With its intuitive and ergonomically designed graphic display, the system provides easy access to all relevant details and holds all the information required for snow production. The software can essentially be operated in one of two ways. The first is the general operating mode, which features fully automatic system startup. The second is semiautomatic mode, in which the snow guns and pumps can be started up and monitored separately.

Service SnowvisualDemaclenko’s service center provides support in the shape of Service Snowvisual. Targeted specifi-cally at customers new to the Snowvisual control software, this round-the-clock support service helps to support the user especially during the initial start up and operation of the system. Our technicians can do any necessary fine-tuning online themselves, providing the customer with the assistance of an expert team at any time of the day or night.

Should any complex problems or deviations arise, the relevant area service technician will be notified. He or she will liaise with the service center and inspect the system in person in order to get it running smoothly again.

In other words, our control software offers a comprehensive package that makes life easier for snow gun operators, while our team provides round-the-clock assurance of efficient system operation in consultation with the customer through either remote maintenance or onsite service.

CUSTOMER-FOCUSED SOLUTIONSJust as when planning, constructing and starting up snowmaking systems, we also provide a customer-focused solution with our Snowvisual control software and one that meets all the current requirements. When devising the concept and creating our Snowvisual control software, we take account of every tiny detail of a ski resort, focusing especially on the exact conditions on the ground.

SYSTEM FLEXIBILITY Snowvisual allows you to integrate all your snow guns into the control system, connecting them up to form a single unit. Demaclenko’s control software also enables the integration of external pump houses, hydrants, snow guns, and weather stations into the system.
