For smart devices, use in the oil industry, for example on an offshore oil platform, represents a real endurance test. The Pepperl+Fuchs brand ECOM Instruments subjected the Visor-Ex® 01, the first system consisting of smart glasses and smartphone certified for use in hazardous areas, to this endurance test during its development phase. The practical test reveals great potential for rollout in future applications.

"Untouched since the ice age" is not a marketing slogan, but a fact - a real piece of the ice age that still exists today: When the ice melted, immense amounts of water drained away into the rock of the Swabian Alp mountains. The earth shifting in an unusual way then caused this reservoir to be sealed off approximately 400 meters below the outside world. As a result, EiszeitQuell has an original purity and quality - just like water over 10,000 years ago.
Users in process automation have the most to gain from insight through data from sensors and actuators. This is where the advanced physical layer for Ethernet, short Ethernet-APL comes in, the data highway to the field of process plants. Many questions must be answered when deploying Ethernet-APL for the first time. This article discusses topologies for Ethernet-APL that can be realized with currently available infrastructure components.
Even under normal conditions it is not simple to always have the right motor on hand to address a wide range of applications. It is all that much more difficult in large chemical companies if several thousand drives have to be kept running around the clock in harsh explosive environments. In the future, one of the largest chemical companies in the world will be depending on a team of external specialists and the comprehensive range of Simotics XP explosion-protected motors from Siemens.

The world is going digital - this applies to our private lives as well as to large parts of our work. In the process industries, the focus is often on end-to-end digital engineering, the analysis of big data, or the utilization of legacy data. But in what way can digitalization change daily work routines and increase work efficiency? A practical example is provided by the specialty chemicals company Lanxess, which has abandoned the classic clipboard, thus demonstrating very clearly what digitalization actually means and what benefits it offers.
Process plants are often very extensive. Many of the plant components are interlinked and their functions coordinated. People who work in this area of plant construction know that there is generally less effort and expense involved in building a new plant, rather than adapting the existing one to meet new requirements. Despite the numerous challenges – and the restrictions imposed by the Corona pandemic and its consequences – the new and renovated production reactors went into operation again right on schedule.
