Flexible Device Integration with SIMATIC CFU CIO HART
Use Case in a Chinese Chemical Plant
Usually, the DCS
system will put I/O cabinets in centralized control room to collect on-site
signals centrally. But in this project, the distance between the on-site
devices and the DCS control room is very far. The size of a single tank is more
than 10 meters, and more than 40 tanks cause inconvenient wiring. Therefore a
simplified wiring construction is required.
Automation solutions
for the process industry with Siemens PCS 7
Efficient
acquisition and data forwarding for third-party communication
Motor drives, field
instruments via fieldbus control network
Integration of core
devices to DCS integrated control
Simplified wiring
construction by applying Compact Field Units (SIMATIC CFU CIO HART)
Process near installation of the SIMATIC CFU CIO HART significantly reduces nearly 70% of the terminals and more than 30% of the wiring
Quick installation of field devices (temperature, level, pressure, etc.) via plug-and-play
Direct connection of the compact field unit to the process control system via PROFINET
Integrating and replacing equipment has never been easier
