One Platform. All Applications. Zero Compromise.
As substations evolve toward fully digital, IEC 61850-based architectures, the number of station-level applications continues to grow: SCADA servers, HMI systems, gateways, engineering tools, cybersecurity components, historians, and analytics workloads. Traditionally, each of these functions required its own dedicated physical device – creating a fragmented, complex, and costly stack.
The Welotec RSAVP changes this completely.
With high-performance compute, large memory capacity, and full substation hardening, the RSAVP consolidates the entire station-level environment into a single virtualization platform, reducing complexity while increasing availability and security.
All Station-Level Applications, One Virtualized Platform
On the RSAVP, utilities and system integrators can virtualize:
- SCADA servers
- Hot-standby control servers & redundant HMI systems
- Gateways & protocol converters (IEC 60870-5-104, DNP3, ICCP)
- Engineering tools (SICAM PAS, PCM600, DIGSI, OpenSCD)
- Historian and analytics databases
- Domain controllers, jump servers, cybersecurity components
Each application runs securely in its own VM — easier to manage, update, and replicate.
Why the RSAVP Is the Ideal Virtualization Platform
- Up to 64 cores → plenty of headroom for parallel SCADA and gateway workloads
- Up to 512 GB RAM → supports dozens of virtual machines
- IEC 61850-3 & IEEE 1613 certified → purpose-built for harsh substation environments
- Hardware-level PRP/HSR redundancy → uninterrupted station communication
- Active cooling & rugged design → reliable 24/7 operation
The result: a stable, powerful compute layer that handles SCADA spikes, historian loads, and engineering sessions without interruptions.
The Benefits for Utilities and Integrators
- Up to 10 SCADA/HMI/engineering PCs
- Dedicated gateway hardware
- External compute nodes for analytics
This lowers CAPEX, simplifies maintenance, and reduces space in control cabinets.
- Cloned
- Snapshotted
- Rolled back instantly
- Pre-configured for new substations
This makes multi-site rollouts dramatically faster.
- One hardened platform to patch
- Controlled and isolated VMs
- Unified access management
- Easier compliance with NIS2, IEC 62443, NERC CIP
-
High Availability
With redundant RSAVPs, SCADA and HMI applications switch over automatically — no downtime, no data loss.
A Foundation for the Software-Defined Substation
Virtualizing the station-level environment is a crucial step toward fully software-defined substation automation. The RSAVP offers the performance and reliability to support every station-level application today — and the scalability to host the advanced digital services of tomorrow.
With Welotec RSAVP, utilities can standardize their architecture, simplify their engineering workflows, strengthen security, and ensure the stability of critical grid infrastructure.
