SNOLAB: Monitoring the world's leading deep underground laboratory with AVEVA PI System

Operating the world's deepest and cleanest underground research facility, SNOLAB uses AVEVA PI System to remotely monitor critical infrastructure and Nobel Prize-winning experiments. The facility's unique, low-radiation environment supports a world-class astroparticle physics research program and helps researchers explore important questions about the evolution of the universe. SNOLAB will use a recent weather event to discuss how it uses AVEVA PI System for monitoring and performing root cause analysis on its 3 megawatt backup generators and 1 megawatt chiller infrastructure. The session also covers SNOLAB's goals to use advanced analytics to predict condition-based maintenance requirements.
