By the way, those units you see around 6:50 are Avocent AMX5121 KVM User Stations. They connect to computers but aren't the actual computers themselves- just a remote display and keyboard for them. It's possible the computers they found would have been the actual computers they were controlling. They also could have been servers that monitored or interfaced with the SCADA control systems you see just before them Either way, a lot of that equipment is fairly new. Was definitely decomm'd recently and not many years ago Edit: I played the video a little bit further and saw the other end of the KVM system in the rack with the Fujitsu systems. Can see it clearly at 7:30. The system however is a matrix system (any computer monitor to any computer tower) so it's possible those weren't the actual user stations. Also interesting you can see 2 different models of AMX KVM systems- they probably have some more modern ones elsewhere in the plant Edit 2: And there's newer KVM user terminals at 10:05

I'm an apprentice electrician and it's crazy how some stuff like valves, motors, pumps, etc are pretty universal and recognizable but big industrial facilities can become so baffling with just the sheer volume of stuff all connected together. Obviously a lot of different facilities have specific and/or proprietary equipment that you'd really have to look over to figure out, and a lot of basic stuff like phones, alarms, and switches can start to look funky when explosion-proof equipment is used. Everything is so expensive (before you even get into the labor to install and maintenance) it's kind of profound to see it all just sitting around doing nothing.

I think I actually know that power plant; planned to go there once too but never got to do that. If it’s the one I’m assuming, it was built in the early 70s (generator 1 & 2) and early to mid 80s (generator 3 & 4). The four generators had a combined power output of 2,23 GWh and it was one of the largest of its operating company. It was closed in 2017.

I've also used on old LGA 1366 Workstation with Xeon CPUs for a gaming rig back in the day. Old Workstations/Servers are a great base for a gaming rig, because they tend to feature beefy PSUs and high quality casings. Heck, if the ones shown in this video have got multiple processor sockets, they probably could still handle todays games well.

@martinm6368

@@provisionalhypothesis yeah, that'd almost certainly be the bottle-neck for those systems. Odds are you simply install a decent GPU and you're good to go. For the workstations/servers featured there, you'd have to pick one with at least 2 CPU-sockets to enjoy modern games. They're older than a decade after all. A single quadcore at 3.2-3.7 GHz won't make the cut anymore. Two of them may perform on par with a good LGA1151-V2 CPU which is still enough for modern games.

It's fascinsting to watch you two navigate the plant. I work in a power plant as well, not a coal fired one like this is but it's amazing how similar it is to the one I'm employed at. Seems no matter which country you're in there is a pretty standard construction template for these plants.

Oh, this is Schwedt ! I remember this place, my dad worked here in the 90's as a Tech refinery engineer and used to brought me at work sometimes on wednesdays. Computers and generators are linked to a crude oil processing system, they process petroleum in this refinery. Workers here used to separate the crude oil into lighter and heavier fractions such as propane, gasoline, diesel. There are several different units to make these tasks automatic here. To make it short, they are mainly a mixture of propane and butane (C3+C4). These gases separated from the top of Atmospheric Distillation Unit (or Crude Distillation Unit - CDU) are liquefied under pressure and sold as cooking fuel in the end. Also, I have absolutely no idea what I'm talking about and thanks for reading my BS until this line and losing five minutes of your time. This is how it works.

Brown, Boveri & Cie. (Brown, Boveri & Company; BBC) was a Swiss group of electrical engineering companies. It was founded in Zürich, in 1891 by Charles Eugene Lancelot Brown and Walter Boveri who worked at the Maschinenfabrik Oerlikon. In 1970 BBC took over the Maschinenfabrik Oerlikon. In 1988 it merged with ASEA to form ABB. These generators predate 1988, how incredible.
