fully redundant Ovation PC-based controllers with embedded
advanced control algorithms |
|
Industry
standard 100 Mbs Fast Ethernet control and information
network |
|
Easy
connectivity to plant WANs, LANs and third-party devices |
|
Fully
integrated engineering tools including a user-friendly,

|
The
ability to seamlessly incorporate fieldbus networks
in Emerson's PlantWeb digital plant architecture |
A key component of
Emerson's Plantweb digital architecture, the Ovation expert
control system embodies Emerson's four decades of unsurpassed
expertise by giving users higher levels of plant availability,
reliability, and environmental compliance.
From basic control and monitoring to fleet
or district-wide integration, Ovation offers seamless communication
with fieldbus networks, intelligent field devices and integrated
asset management solutions to deliver the power of predictive
intelligence.
By incorporating industry standard hardware
platforms, operating systems and network architectures, only
the Ovation expert control system stays new in the face of
rapidly advancing technology. Over time, your Ovation system
can evolve incrementally, incorporating new technologies while
preserving your investment in control logic, process graphics
and operator training.
|
|
The
precision of the Ovation expert control system
begins with the Ovation Controller. With
an Intel Pentium® PC
at its heart, the Ovation controller provides
full redundancy to assure the reliability and
security necessary for even the most demanding
application.
Through
the WDPF-to-Ovation migration process, your existing
control logic is converted to equivalent Ovation
algorithms that provide either identical or enhanced
functionality over their WDPF counterparts.
|
In
addition, you get Ovation's Advanced Process
Control (APC) Toolkit, a set of specialty algorithms
and pre-defined control routines that leverage
the ever-expanding computing power of the Ovation
controller. The APC Toolkit takes control to
a higher level by incorporating fuzzy logic,
neural networks, model predictive control and
industry specific applications to reduce process
variability and optimize process performance
over the full range of plant operating conditions.
|
The
Ovation expert control system allows you to incorporate
advanced, intelligent field devices to create
a PlantWeb digital plant architecture by providing
seamless integration with widely adopted bus
standards such as HART, FOUNDATION™ Fieldbus,
Profibus DP and DeviceNet™. These digital
bus technologies deliver rich diagnostic information
from the field to the Ovation control system,
providing valuable, new insight into plant operations.
|
|
AMS™ Suite:
Intelligent Device Manager™, an integrated
component of Ovation, puts this information at
the fingertips of plant personnel by offering
them an integrated window into the health of
HART, Foundation fieldbus and traditional field
devices as well as the surrounding processes.
|
 |
With Ovation, you get the
latest technology, improved performance, increased
functionality, and so much more.
