Delivering the power of PlantWeb to every installation.

The DeltaV system has thecommissioning and monitoringpower of AMS Device Managerincluded. This combinationconnects your operations with thepredictive intelligence in smartdevices and creates PlantWeb–forgreater availability.

The inherent integration of theDeltaV system extends to batch,advanced control, changemanagement, engineering tools,diagnostics, simulation, and eventand continuous historian.

Emerson provides solutions thatintegrate with your plant systemsabove, below, and in parallel with

the DeltaV system. And, it is tightlyintegrated with: � SyncadeTM suite which provides

operations management�AMSTM Suite which provides

predictive maintenance�DeltaV SISTM system which

provides integrated yetseparate safety

� Integrated machinerymonitoring.

Designed specifically for your process control applications.

Over the last ten years, commercial off-the-shelf technologies (COTS) haveprovided tremendous increases infunctionality and cost advantages toend-users of today’s automationsystems. The DeltaV system was the firstsuch system on the market, andcontinues to provide open, provenproducts to its process manufacturers.

However, while COTS has given manyadvantages, it has also come withexpensive administration and life-cyclecosts requirements. A better approach isto take advantage of the cost benefitsand open standards of COTS, but to addfunctionality that allows the equipmentto function much more like other partsof the system–plug-and-play, full

lifecycle support without upgrades,built-in security, etc. We call this balance“Built for Purpose”, and the DeltaVsystem is the first automation system toaddress this critical need in many of themost important facets of the system.

The DeltaV system’s uniqueflexible field architecture deliversI/O on demand–providing the I/Oyou want, when you want it, whereyou want it. It is flexible becauseyou can now decouple the processdesign from the I/O infrastructuredesign, to easily incorporate lateprocess changes into theautomation system.

Electronic Marshalling Tight project schedules withchanging requirements duringdesign and implementation are away of life. DeltaV ElectronicMarshalling lets you land fieldcabling wherever you want,

regardless of signal type or controlstrategy.

With Electronic Marshalling, eachterminal block has a channelcharacterization module, orCHARM, which includes an A/Dconverter and associated signalcharacterization for different typesanalog and digital I/O. Field wiringof any signal type can be termin-ated anywhere and characterizedby the various CHARMS. A digitalcommunication bus runs along theterminal strip to send device signalinformation to the top of theredundant CHARM I/O card whereI/O conditioning is completed.

� Insertable/removable underpower in a Zone 2 environment

� Signal fault protection andcircuit protection built in

� Fault isolation built in to CHARM.

Process design changes often occur

throughout the life of a project. For example,

after the process hazard analysis is completed,

new temperature measurements might need

to be added to a process vessel. This can create

significant hardware design challenges if the

correct I/O channel type isn’t available, or if

there is no room for new I/O to be added. In

most control systems this would require

substantial re-work to move some or all of the

control strategy to another controller.

With the unique DeltaV Electronic Marshalling

solution, implementing this change can be as

simple as adding a few new CHARMS to any

existing terminal strip, regardless of which

controller will use the input data.

Marshalling made easyElectronic Marshalling makesdesign easier and more forgiving,because any input value can beread by any DeltaV controllerregardless of where the wiring islanded.

DeltaV Electronic Marshallingeliminates the complexityassociated with marshalling fieldwiring in a control system.

Electricians can terminate the fieldwires on terminal strips in thesame way they have in the past,but the cross-wiring from themarshalling panel to I/O cards hasbeen eliminated. This greatlysimplifies control cabinet design, installation, and maintenance.

Installation of ElectronicMarshalling is intuitive and easy,because it is similar to existingmethods for terminating field wiring. No special training or expertise is needed to terminate wiring on the terminal blocks. Anintegrated “knife-edge” disconnect eliminates the worryover accidentally induced faultsduring hot cutovers andmaintenance.

Increased robustness Troubleshooting of installationissues can be done on a channel-by-channel basis, becauseproblems are isolated to a singlechannel–providing increasedrobustness.

Because each CHARM comes fullyequipped with the ability to readHART v7 data, intelligent fielddevices can be monitored andquickly diagnosed around the clock.

Redundancy ensures reliability:�Redundant CHARM I/O card�Redundant communications

between CHARMS and theCHARM I/O card

�Redundant power betweenCHARM I/O card to each CHARM

�Redundant network com-munications between CHARMI/O cards and controllers.

Late changes? NoproblemEvery project has late changes thatcan have significant impact on costand schedule. Making these latechanges is now easier, becausenew field wiring can be added tocabinets at any time with noimpact on the system architecture.

When used with Emerson’sSyncade Smart OperationsManagement suite, DeltaV Batchoffers a comprehensive operationsmanagement solution to optimizework processes plant-wide.

Reliability is built inEvery batch is run as a separateprocess in the Batch Executive. Abatch failure is isolated fromimpacting other batches.

DeltaV Batch provides redundancyat all levels of execution–reducingprocess shutdowns andeliminating risk of lost batches.Online upgrades are supported forsystems with redundancy, thusminimizing the impact onproduction, and making it easy tostay current with the latesttechnology available.

Redundancy is available for theDeltaV controller, Batch Executive,and Campaign Manager, providingrobustness for unit, process, andrecipe execution.

Flexibility for agilemanufacturingDuring recipe execution, DeltaVBatch provides flexibility for agilemanufacturing to meet real-timedemands and capturescomprehensive records forregulatory compliance. Class-based configuration and recipemanagement deliver repeatability.

DeltaV Batch enables recipechanges and equipment selectionson-the-fly. Support for dynamicunit selection, automatic unitselection, unit aliasing, andequipment trains delivers:�better support for flexible

manufacturing� improved process equipment

failure handling� reduced risk of equipment

selection errors.

Know when, where andwhy changes are madeTo meet your regulatorycompliance requirements, theDeltaV system integrates changemanagement into your processautomation. This ConfigurationAudit Trail provides a completeversion-to-version comparison,including not only what changed,but who made the change, when,where and why.

DeltaV function-based securityprovides you control over who canperform Batch tasks in the system.Examples include restrictingoperator access to batch abortcommands and starting/stoppingbatches and recipes.

DeltaV Batch incorporateselectronic signatures into yourbatch processing to supportregulatory compliancerequirements, including FDA 21CFR Part 11. Any and all actionstaken can be configured to requirea confirm mechanism. A user’sname and password, along with averifying user’s name andpassword, if required, are neededto execute the action.

A large life science manufacturer needs to

expand an existing facility to meet the urgent

demand for a vaccine. By adding onto the

existing DeltaV system the reusable, standards-

based software modules of DeltaV Batch, the

engineers can easily configure the added

equipment–saving precious time. Additionally,

complete redundancy of the system, from

control to recipe level, gives the manufacturer a

robust system that will not cause process

shutdowns. End result: Faster product to market;

more lives saved.

An integrated engineering and operations environmentmakes it easy to control your batch processes.

Larry is pulling his hair out. After the batch is complete and records are collected, it

becomes obvious that data is missing from the batch record. If only operations

became aware of this omission before the batch progressed to the next step!

Syncade suite enables comprehensive production records to be generated in real-

time–flagging omissions or inaccurate data during processing, as well as enabling

review by exception. This functionality speeds batch release time and improves

manufacturing performance.

At the heart of your productionprocess is your processautomation system. Its ability toeasily connect up, down, andsideways with other systems andapplications is critical for providingan information-sharing,collaborative environment.The DeltaV system provides manydata integration options with itsopen, interoperable standards-based technologies such as serial,OPC, OPC Xi, high-speed Ethernet,SQL, XML and web services.

Ethernet and serialdevice connectivitySimplifying integration with yourplant subsystems, the DeltaVEthernet I/O card (E/OC) connectsthrough Ethernet using ModbusTCP and Ethernet/IP protocols.With redundancy, this externaldata can be robustly integratedinto your control strategies.Making integration easy, Ethernetdevice configuration may be bulkloaded into DeltaV controlstrategies to reduce engineeringefforts.

Serial communications usingMODBUS RTU/ASCII protocols alsomakes integration with othersystems easy, by connecting yourlegacy DCSs and PLCs to theDeltaV system.

OPC and OPC XiOpen and interoperable OPCcommunications have served theprocess industries well for over adecade as a way to connect serversof data with a multitude ofvaluable clients. This standardsupports real-time and historicaldata access as well as alarm/eventdata access. Cyber-securityconcerns and increased use offirewalls around the automationsystem’s perimeter have createdproblems with network distributedOPC communications –until now.

OPC Express Interface (OPC Xi) is anew data communicationsinterface developed by manydiverse, process automationsuppliers to meet customer needsfor a secure, reliable and standardway to exchange data between theautomation system and theenterprise. OPC Xi connectivityprovides secure, robust, firewall-friendly data access to real-timeand historical process data as wellas real-time alarm and event data.To ease migration to OPC Xi fromcurrent OPC systems, OPC Xi candirectly interface to existing OPCData Access, OPC Historical DataAccess and OPC Alarms & Eventsclients and servers to deliver asecure data communication patheven on legacy systems. Inaddition, OPC Xi provides process

manufacturers a migration path tothe OPC Unified Architecture (UA)as needed. OPC Xi is based onWindows CommunicationFoundation (WCF), the latestcommunications technology fromMicrosoft, enabling both fast andefficient data communicationsbetween Windows-based clientsand servers and secure and reliable

Streamlining collaboration for greater production efficiency.

Your EPC is using Intergraph’s SmartPlant

Instrumentation (SPI) software to design your

large projects. This software enables the

instrumentation and wiring database to drive the

physical layout of control system I/O and

cabinetry. In the past you have been able to

import the I/O configuration from the SPI tool,

automatically configuring your DCS with the

same I/O layout. This eliminates a lot of duplicate

engineering effort. However, without bi-

directional communication, any changes made to

the I/O design on the DCS side cannot be re-

incorporated into the SPI database without

manual effort.

Synchronizing the configuration after changes

are made to the DCS configuration means that

two tasks must be performed , one in each

system, likely by two different people. This

creates significant coordination costs and often

results is quality problems when errors are made

or changes are lost.

Now with DeltaV XML-based bi-directional SPI-

integration, data exchange and synchronization

in both directions is accomplished with only a few

clicks of the mouse. You can enter it once and be

done. It’s that easy!

OPC Xi also facilitates thedevelopment of visually stunningclient applications using WindowsPresentation Foundation (WPF),Microsoft’s next generation user-interface development platform.

SQLConnecting upwards withtransactional, planning-basedsystems often requires SQLdatabase connectivity. DeltaValarms, events, and batch historydata are stored in anSQL-server databaseand available toapplications likeoperationsmanagement systems,enterprise planningsystems and otherdecision supportsystems requiringaccess to informationfrom the process.

This well-known, well-proven, easily-adaptable standardsupports the datarequirements for yourworkflow processes.

Web ServicesMany process manufacturers wantto integrate their control andbusiness systems to moreefficiently run their organization,but existing solutions may not beflexible or secure enough to meetthe demands of these systems.Service Oriented Architecture(SOA) provides a way to addressthese requirements. It’s astandards-based design approachto create an integrated ITinfrastructure and agile, looselycoupled dynamic applicationscapable of rapidly responding tochanging business needs.

Web services use specificstandards and language protocolsto execute an SOA approach. TheDeltaV system provides an SOAapproach to Level 3 and Level 4data integration with DeltaV WebServices for batch recipe creationand batch execution schedulingdata. The DeltaV SOA Gatewaywith DeltaV Web Services providesa highly-secure, authenticatedmeans of communicationsbetween the DeltaV system andplant planning and executionapplications.

The DeltaV OPC Xi interface provides a secure, firewall-friendly data communicationspath between the DeltaV system and the enterprise.

Over the last ten years, commercialoff-the-shelf (COTS) technologieshave provided tremendousincreases in functionality and costadvantages to end-users of today’sautomation systems. The DeltaVsystem was the first of this kindand continues to provide openproven products to its user base.

However, while COTS has providedmany advantages, it has also comewith a price–increased adminis-tration and life-cycle costsrequirements. A better approach isto take advantage of the costbenefits and open standards ofCOTS, but to add on top of thisfunctionality that allows theequipment to function much morelike other parts of the system(plug-and-play capability, full life-cycle support without upgrades,security built in, etc.) We call thisbalance “Built for Purpose”, andthe DeltaV system is the firstautomation system to address thiscritical need in many of the mostimportant facets of the system.

Built for securityTo help you address challengescreated by using COTS, security isintegrated throughout the DeltaVsystem architecture. Ethernetnetwork switches and securitydevices are treated as DeltaVdevices and are fully preconfiguredfor purpose. Alerts and diagnosticsfrom these devices are integratedwith other maintenance alerts soyour maintenance staff, not your ITstaff, can quickly address any issues.

AMS Device Managerintegrates with the DeltaVsoftware to provide commonsecurity and confidence in theoperation of your field assets.

DeltaV Smart Switches comecompletely preconfigured toplug and play in the DeltaVnetwork with no additionalconfiguration or trouble-shooting required. To preventphysical intrusion on thecontrol network, you canautomatically lock down unusedswitch ports with a single mouse click.

A perimeter firewall protects yourcontrol system from security risksfrom outside the control network. On your control network, DeltaVcontroller firewalls further protectyour control hardware.

Security extends up to theenterprise applications through Xiand web services providing two-way, authenticatedcommunications for historicalprocess data control, andadvanced control data, alarms andevents, and batch-basedinformation. Unlike otherautomation systems, the dataincludes status information fromthe intelligent field devices.Instead of wondering if critical business decision-makinginformation coming from the automation system is accurate–the quality of the data comesalong with the data.

Built for humansDeltaV engineering applicationsorganize the functions in ribbonbars, which consolidate functionsby logical task and are fullycustomizable. Productivityenhancing tooltips and fast keysstreamline your configurationefforts. Because time is precious,this technology helps focusprocess engineers on high-valueactivities like control strategyimprovements instead of keyboarddata entry.

The DeltaV system has led the wayin easy-to-use engineeringapplications to simplify projectexecution and ongoingmaintenance. Whether yourapplication is continuous, batch, orprocess safety-related, thiscommon set of engineeringapplications provides thesimplicity and flexibility for yourmost demanding applications.

Designed for ease-of-use in your most demanding applications.

Once a control system is up and running, you

want to avoid making changes as much as

possible–especially in cases where a change

might have unknown consequences. Your

company’s IT department has mandated that

all “SwitchCo” network devices must be

managed by them even though some reside on

your control network. However, they don’t

understand the difference between a business

network and a control network. The IT

department updates the network firmware on

a Friday evening, at the same time that they do

it for the business network so that office

workers are not affected. Unfortunately, this

causes loss of communications and your plant

shuts down. Who gets the call in the middle of

the night? How do you troubleshoot the

problem? Who can you reach in IT for support?
