Which of the following is not the component of a SCADA system?

Database server
I/O system
PLC controller
Sparger controller

The correct answer is D. Sparger controller.

A SCADA system is a supervisory control and data acquisition system. It is a computer-based system that collects and monitors data from remote locations and then uses that data to control devices at those locations.

The main components of a SCADA system are:

  • A database server: This stores the data collected by the SCADA system.
  • An I/O system: This is the hardware that is used to connect the SCADA system to the devices that 288 64S117.2 64 74.6 75.5c-23.5 6.3-42 24.9-48.3 48.6-11.4 42.9-11.4 132.3-11.4 132.3s0 89.4 11.4 132.3c6.3 23.7 24.8 41.5 48.3 47.8C117.2 448 288 448 288 448s170.8 0 213.4-11.5c23.5-6.3 42-24.2 48.3-47.8 11.4-42.9 11.4-132.3 11.4-132.3s0-89.4-11.4-132.3zm-317.5 213.5V175.2l142.7 81.2-142.7 81.2z"/> Subscribe on YouTube
it is monitoring and controlling.
  • A PLC controller: This is a computer that is used to control the devices that the SCADA system is monitoring.
  • A HMI (human-machine interface): This is a software application that allows operators to view the data collected by the SCADA system and to control the devices that it is monitoring.
  • A sparger controller is a device that is used to control the flow of gas into a sparger. A sparger is a device that is used to add gas to a liquid. The gas is added through small holes in the sparger, and the bubbles of gas help to mix the liquid.

    A sparger controller is not a component of a SCADA system because it is not used to collect or monitor data, nor is it used to control devices.
