Emerson adds Profibus asset support to DeltaV

Product Details Supplier Info More products

Emerson has added Profibus DP v1 asset support to the DeltaV digital automation system AMS Suite, extending predictive diagnostic management to motor-control centres and drives.

AMS Device Manager v11, a key component of the Plantweb digital plant architecture, will help users streamline maintenance procedures by providing a single application for managing all field devices using Hart, Foundation fieldbus, Profibus DP and IEC 62591 (Wirelesshart) communications.

By having a central point to actively manage all asset information, users can take better advantage of predictive diagnostics to ensure equipment reliability and availability.

Adding Profibus DP protocol support provides AMS Device Manager users with an expanded range of assets that are manageable from one application.

In addition to instrumentation and valves, users can now communicate with motor starters, motor control centres, drives and other high-value equipment, accessing diagnostics and configurations for more assets than ever before.

Like the previous version, AMS Device Manager v11 delivers significant user experience improvements to operations and maintenance workers in a plant through user-centric interfaces called Device Dashboards.

Now including Profibus DP assets, these interfaces deliver clear asset status diagnostics and guidance to streamline important and frequently performed tasks.

Maintenance technicians receive more in-depth information to solve device issues.

AMS Device Manager v11 also expands its support to the DeltaV v11 release, including the S-series hardware, Charms I/O cards, redundant wireless and native wireless I/O cards.

The DeltaV v11 release features I/O on demand to help users eliminate work, reduce project costs and increase operational flexibility.

Users of Emerson’s Guardian and Foundation Support will now benefit from the incorporation of AMS Device Manager system details into the Guardian application.

Guardian enables users to receive support content that is matched to their individual system.

Customised content includes knowledge-base articles, Microsoft updates, system updates and open support calls.

Guardian users are said to extract the most performance from their systems with the lowest life-cycle cost and maximum process availability.

Guardian is available for the DeltaV digital automation system, Ovation expert-control system, and standalone AMS Suite users.

AMS Device Manager v11 can be used with the Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 operating systems, and continues to support Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 operating systems.

It includes new versions of Snap-on applications, including AMS Wireless, AMS Valvelink and Quickcheck.
