Control and Safety Systems

Extending the utility of the control system across the entire manufacturing operation is one of the key value propositions Emerson provides.

Working with the local Impact Partner brings deep project execution expertise and process control insight to you, to solve unique challenges you may face in start-up, shut-down, and steady state operations.

I/O ON DEMAND, ELECTRONIC MARSHALLING

I/O on Demand increases operational flexibility by using a single channel component that allows field wiring of any signal type to be terminated anywhere. With I/O on Demand, no marshalling cabinet or cross-wiring is needed, which results in less work and fewer contact points for potential failures. Meanwhile, Electronic Marshalling makes plants more flexible, empowering users to add I/O anywhere without affecting control room cabinets.

SCALABLE

When selecting process control applications, it is essential to choose an architecture built to handle all possible sizes and levels of complexity. Scalability needs to be incorporated from Day One to avoid a future tangle of isolated, difficult-to-integrate solutions. The DeltaV architecture uses DeltaV Zones that segment the systems, allowing scaling in size from 25 I/O to over 1 million I/O and ensuring flexible operation and expansion with enhanced system performance.

EASY

DeltaV’s easy and flexible modern automation systems eliminate operational complexity and minimize project risk, boosting plant performance with easy-to-use intelligent control. Smartphone apps offered through DeltaV Mobile allow managers to view real-time data from anywhere, while intuitive interfaces integrate with modern technologies to make the system simple to learn and operate.

You need a modern approach to increasing safety integrity that also improves process availability, and DeltaV safety instrumented systems (SIS) is your answer. DeltaV SIS™ continuously monitors the status of your plant’s safety devices and runs diagnostics on the entire safety loop, dramatically reducing risk. Certified to safety integrity level (SIL) 3, the logic solver uses electronic marshalling technology to lower your installation, commissioning and maintenance costs while substantially decreasing your equipment footprint. DeltaV SIS™ is designed to help users implement SIS across a broad range of safety applications, maximizing project efficiency and third-party connectivity to facilitate implementation regardless of distributed control system (DCS) vendor.

Applications

DeltaV SIS™ applications are designed to protect the plant and its personnel from hazardous conditions as well as to provide a rapid and coordinated operational response to emergency situations, thereby ensuring maximum uptime. High Integrity Pressure Protection Systems (HIPPS) prevent overpressure while DeltaV SIS™ automatically monitors, controls and collects safety-related data for Emergency Shutdown (ESD), Fire & Gas (FGS) and Burner Management System (BMS) applications. Using specially developed function blocks for each application, the highly flexible DeltaV SIS™ solution is easy to maintain and monitor.

Integrated or Standalone

DeltaV SIS™ is an integrated control and safety system (ICSS) that provides a cohesive engineering, maintenance and operations environment. In addition, it can be easily, transparently and independently integrated with an existing Basic Process Control System (BPCS). This integrated but separate architecture delivers the benefits of total integration and separation without the tradeoffs, and it also complies with standards for physical separation and independence of safety and control.
