The customer plant has been expanded by various service providers and has difficulties to maintain the software structure in the system parts. The replacement of the outdated,
non-future-proof PTE400 library and various customer-specific blocks in a SIMATIC PCS 7
V6 version that is no longer supported was needed. In addition, the creation of up-to-date security standards for critical infrastructure was required. Siemens was commissioned as a trusted partner to provide DCS Library Services to ensure service upgradeability and optimize system availability.
DCS
Library Services as an important part of the system modernization of the
central control technology:
Standardized library exchange of the
PTE400 library and various customer-specific blocks according to APL in 54
automation systems
Automated revision of the user interface
according to customer specifications for 6 pairs of SIMATIC PCS 7 OS servers
Standardization of the plant parts by
creating and using typical library
exchange on APL using MLFB based standard packages
Optimization
of plant availability / ensuring service and upgradeability
The use of standard libraries, the
implemented standardization, reduces maintenance costs, increases
serviceability and enables the use of current SIMATIC PCS 7 features and future DCS
innovations.
