Should I Choose DeltaV ?
Monday, 24 November 2008Yes, if you want an automation system for applications of any size. Since 1996, the DeltaV system has been commissioned in automation applications across the globe in projects ranging from 8 I/O up to 30,000 I/O. Industries like Life Sciences and Biotechs, Oil, Gas, & Hydrocarbons, Chemicals and Specialty Chemicals, Pulp & Paper, Food & Beverage, and Metals, Mining, & Minerals have increased the return on their automation investment with the DeltaV system. Yes, if you want to join others who have dramatically reduced their automation capital project costs and ongoing operations and maintenance costs with open, interoperable bus technologies like FOUNDATION fieldbus, AS-i bus, Profibus DP, and DeviceNet. Only the DeltaV system is "built for busses" and a key component of the proven PlantWeb architecture, which delivers revolutionary results. Yes, if you want to take advantage of predictive technologies to avoid unplanned shutdowns and eliminate mundane practices that chip away at profits. You can make the most of your intelligent HART and FOUNDATION fieldbus devices by using AMSinside DeltaV predictive maintenance software. Only the DeltaV system is built with AMSinside so all of the device diagnostics are right at your fingertips in the control room and the maintenance shop. Yes, if you want your automation system to easily integrate with your enterprise planning systems and personal communications devices like wireless phones, pagers, and PDAs. The DeltaV system incorporates open, interoperable standards like OLE for Process Control (OPC), XML, and ODBC. Yes, if you want to improve the performance of your plant with embedded advanced control applications, which can be applied by a typical process engineer, not an expert consultant. Reducing process variability, reducing switchover times between product runs, predicting upsets, and avoiding downtime are easily achieved when advanced control is embedded with traditional plant automation. Yes, if you need the most integrated batch capabilities available today, like all of the top 24 life sciences companies around the globe that are currently using DeltaV Batch, in one of the most highly regulated industries today. DeltaV Batch simplifies regulatory compliance with the FDA's 21 CFR Part 11, OSHA, and ISO 9000 by automating the change management process and reduces the time and energy required to meet these demands. Yes, if you want the peace of mind you get from controlling your plant with a system surpassing 6 sigma quality standards. The DeltaV system not only surpasses this level of quality from its introduction in 1996, it's controlling some of the most challenging processes around the globe, from oil and gas production on the frigid North Slope of Alaska, to refinery Cat Crackers in China, to sterile, clean life sciences processes. Yes, if you want to take advantage of SureService support services which lead the industry year after year as voted by the readers of Control magazine. DeltaV technology coupled with world-class SureService support helps you to reduce lifecycle costs and increase plant availability, efficiency and performance.
