Experion PMD Field Controller Express (FCE) controllers are easily configurable and make maintenance easy and cost effective. It comes with a wide range of plant control methods and high control capacity to meet the diverse needs of various industries, including pulp and paper, metals, chemicals, pharmaceuticals and food and beverage. The new release is fully scalable and continues to support migration from Honeywell’s TotalPlant Alcont (TPA) systems.
How Does It Work??
The FCE Controller comprises a processor unit configured for high performance, two Profibus or Profinet fieldbus interfaces, a multi-speed Upline/IOline highway interface which can connect TotalPlant Alcont’s I/O extension racks.
The FCE Controller uses heat pipe cooling technology, instead of cooling fans, to improve reliability and ease-of-use.
The controller connects to the automation system’s network via Ethernet. The FCE Controller generates and relays normal channel I/O data as well as channel-specific diagnostic and status data for each connected I/O unit. The automation system displays this uniformly, regardless of the device or fieldbus in use. Diagnostic and alarm data also appear on the automation system and are automatically routed to the system’s alarm mechanism.
What Problems Does It Solve?
- Latest Experion PMD releases with updated FCE controller address the obsolescence challenges with TPA platform, , lack of Operational Excellence and offers modernization path to the latest Expeiron PKS platform features and technologies to address all business needs by:
- Adopting Experion PKS platform to use new technology features and functionalities like ‘Experion HIVE for PMD’ and additional operational features such as Orion Console and Advanced HMI.
- Updated FCE controller offers ready-made solutions for application control for diverse industries. Its high capacity reduces control response times, and provides a flexible, efficient and convenient way to meet demanding process industry needs.
- Provide Cyber Security out of the box
- Supporting and enabling the conversion of existing customer IP (application and graphics) to support all new features
- Reduce unpredictability and risk associated with downtime and spare part availability.
- Enhance and Simplify Life Cycle Management and Support
