【HaiChuan Discussion】This fancy control room doesn’t even come equipped with the walkie-talkies that are common everywhere – is it about to fade into history...
Thread Content
This is Hengli Petrochemical’s sophisticated control room, which has just started undergoing testing. An experienced professional could immediately tell that walkie-talkies are not standard equipment here. Could it be that the intercom system is being upgraded? Are walkie-talkies about to be phased out? Let’s all talk about this. These are the second phase of Huizhou Refining and Chemical Plant, which came online last year; walkie-talkies can also be seen on the table

Personally, I think it’s a staged photo for promotional purposes”
If remote operation can be fully achieved with no one on site, then walkie-talkies might not be necessary; or direct communication between the control center and the site could also eliminate the need for walkie-talkies
Do you mean that they actually exist, but the walkie-talkies used for taking photos were hidden?
But I didn’t see any microphones either\ud83c\udfa4 Could it be…
It was probably taken before it started operating, or all unnecessary items were placed on other storage tables in order to keep the operation desk tidy; this is quite normal
It’s probably still hidden, to keep the desktop tidy and organized
It’s not right to hide it. Shouldn’t there be a charger holder with positioning for normal use? I don’t see one either
I guess this place might not be an operation center; it’s probably used for data storage or as an engineer’s station； But there are quite a few computers; this other function could be used as a showcase for leaders to visit and see as a form of publicity! The control station may be separately located in an area not far from the device. No matter how automated the equipment is, personnel are still needed to conduct inspections on site; therefore, communication tools are necessary, one of which is explosion-proof walkie-talkies and the other is explosion-proof telephones. If either of these two devices is missing in the control room, it may not be intended for operation. Furthermore, no video surveillance monitor was seen near the computer, so the functions of this control room still need to be confirmed.
To fully achieve remote operation of the site, regular inspections are still necessary to prevent accidents, which requires communication between parties. If there is direct communication between the control room and the site, the operators should also be equipped with headphones, right?
