“Information instead of data!“
In many cases, complex process machines are equipped
with inadequate protection devices, which are designed to
trigger an alert or emergency shutdown of the machine. In
this case, the operator receives no information about the
location and cause of the problem.
PROGNOST® goes a step further by and provides users clear
diagnostic information with the cause for the alarm or shut-
down as a basis for effi cient maintenance actions.
This is “Information instead of data”.
