PlantWeb is a proven digital plant architecture that uses the power of predictive intelligence to improve plant performance. Lowering capital and engineering costs (compared to traditional DCS-centred architectures) it provides greater operational benefits by enabling the user to improve throughput, availability, and quality, reduce conversion costs, and sustain the resulting performance gains. Users typically report at least 2% improvements in plant efficiency.
Digital intelligence offers diagnostics that enable the user to predict and prevent problems before they affect the process. Open communication standards link devices, systems, and applications in a plant wide network to ensure process and equipment information is available wherever it's needed. The more that is known about the process and equipment, the easier it is to improve production and keep the operation running smoothly. New technologies and services tap the architecture's information flow to increase uptime, optimise performance, and reduce maintenance costs.
PlantWeb digital plant architecture has proven success in thousands of projects. Predictive intelligence enables the user to detect and avoid conditions that could cause problems. It is networked, not centralised, and engineered to efficiently gather and manage information from intelligent field devices, using standards at every level of the architecture - including taking full advantage of Foundation Fieldbus. This means that it provides process control, asset optimisation and integration with other plant and business systems.
