Christies AV solutions power Mexicos largest refinery
Summary
Video walls were critical for displaying scalable content from multiple sources simultaneously, including a wide range of camera feeds, SCADA systems from remote sites, and productivity KPIs. "Christie video walls were chosen for their high quality and brightness, and we saw a real advantage of having a complete control room portfolio with a single brand," says Dimas Lopez, general manager of Soluciones en Tecnologia de Mexico (STM), the Christie partner that acted as the project integrator. Eight 1.4 mm pixel pitch Christie Core Series LED video walls, each measuring 8.5 x 3.2 meters, were installed in the main control room. In the tactical room, two Christie LCD video walls were installed in a 4x2 configuration with HD resolution (1920x1080) and sub-1 mm bezels. "The video walls allow the different teams in the refinery to share critical information in different control rooms by combining several sources simultaneously to obtain an accurate view of what is happening at any given moment, and make the best decision in the shortest possible time," explains Dimas Lopez.
