Digital platform for intelligent valve management
A holistic approach on customer support for the Chemical and Pharmaceutical Industries
What comes to mind when you hear the word “app”? WhatsApp? TikTok? Linked-in? Broadening our scope from these examples that deliver entertainment and connection, what can apps do for users in the process industries? Quite simply, an app is an application software that generates benefits for the user - on your mobile device, in the cloud or on a server 'under the desk'. Let’s take a look at three apps for process instrumentation, exploring their different approaches as well as their advantages.
Standardization provides the basis for digitizing the process plant
FDT 3.0 provides the standardized universal solution for open automation integration, configuration, monitoring and mobility
Improved safety and uptime in hazardous applications through detailed valve assembly and diagnostic data
Digital humidity and temperature probe for harsh environmental conditions and suitable for temperatures up to 120 °C
Firmware update adds web server functions, “HCiR” and parallel access to HART devices to Ethernet gateways
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.
Bringing color measurements from the lab to the process
Highly accurate device with SIL 2 certification
For a variety of markets, available with SFP port options
ODVA announced today that The EtherNet/IP™ Specification has been enhanced to enable EtherNet/IP networks to support the Ethernet-APL physical layer for process automation. Licensed Vendors for the EtherNet/IP technology can immediately start developing EtherNet/IP components for Ethernet-APL, including controllers, power switches, field switches, and instrumentation.
Enabling IT/OT Interoperability in the New Age of Automation
AS-Schneider valves are being successfully used at the Amal oilfield in Oman which uses steam generated at the Miraah solar thermal facility. Steam injection is a common enhanced oil recovery method.
He will follow as successor to Glenn Schulz who will retire from this position at the end of the year.
Compact, rugged, secure wireless devices for demanding utility and infrastructure applications
Free virtual Ethernet-APL Technology Workshop offered to users on October 5 and 6
FDT Group video describes automation transformation with FDT 3.0
Glenn Schulz, Managing Director at FDT Group, gives us the details of the FDT 3.0 IIoT ecosystem, as well as insights on smart manufacturing and mobility, CIP security enhancements and 5G technology
We interviewed Andreas Hennecke, Pepperl+Fuchs Product Marketing Manager and Ambassador for Ethernet-APL about the development and possibilities of Ethernet-APL for the process industry.
