Challenge	Mohegan Sun, a renowned gaming and entertainment destination, needed a system to monitor and control the various aspects of their facility. This included the status of chillers, boilers, and other behind-the-scene systems, as well as approximately 250 VAV boxes, about 60 air handling units (AHUs), 30 exhaust fans, a dozen fan coil units, and a host of temperature and humidity readings. An interesting aspect of this project is the AHUs deployed for the arena. There are four fans moving 200,000 cubic feet per minute of air. Normally these are used to air condition the facility for spectators. However, in case of a fire, the smoke detector system puts these AHUs into “Smoke Mode”. Instead of bringing air into the arena, dampers change and these pull the smoke out of the area, making it easier for firefighters to enter the building. Read More
About Customer	Mohegan Sun is a legendary gaming and entertainment destination created by the Mohegan Tribe of Indians of Connecticut. The facility is renowned for its exceptional service, hospitality, and excitement. It features an extraordinary Mohegan-themed design, making it one of the most unique casinos in the world. The grounds of Mohegan Sun include a 34-story hotel with 1,176 luxury guest rooms, 300,000 square feet of gaming excitement, thirty-two different dining options, over thirty fine shops and boutiques, a performance theatre and arena, and the Sky Dome - the world’s largest, most spectacular planetarium dome, which bathes the casino in an ever-changing display of sparkling constellations.

Solution	Mohegan Sun selected ICONICS GENESIS32™ Web-enabled, OPC-integrated HMI/SCADA suite featuring the GraphWorX™ HMI Graphical Display Package, AlarmWorX™ Alarm Management System and TrendWorX™ Live and Historical Data Logging, Charting and Reporting components. GraphWorX32, a component of GENESIS32, monitors the status of these areas, as well as the chillers, boilers, and other behind-the-scene systems. The custom graphic interface that can be developed by using GraphWorX32 gives more knowledge to the user/operator, thus creating an environment for success. Using this powerful visualization, based on GENESIS32, operators can now visualize the equipment and its operating conditions. The system follows a “Web-based” look and feel, providing users with an instant understanding of how to navigate through the system. Read More Log in to view content
