SPRING HOUSE, Pa., March 15, 2007 - Siemens Energy & Automation, Inc. today announced the release of Version 7 of their field proven SIMATIC PCS 7 Process Automation System that gives plant operators new ways to minimize total cost of ownership, protect automation assets, increase plant availability, minimize downtime, optimize process performance, and modernize existing installed systems. 89c【中国自动化网社区】df1bf8【http://sns.ca800.com】f91d
As with previous versions of the PCS 7 system, Version 7 breaks traditional DCS limitations by offering the world’s only platform that integrates new and existing automation systems (process, batch, discrete and safety) and devices (instrumentation, analytics, motors, drives, and safety instrumented functions) within a single platform. The system also boasts common tools for engineering, visualization, and plant-wide asset and maintenance management.89c【中国自动化网社区】df1bf8【http://sns.ca800.com】f91d
"These improvements are the result of experience gained from installing over 5,000 PCS 7 systems worldwide over the past 10 years," said Raj Batra, vice president, Siemens Automation and Motion Division. "Version 7 eliminates the limitations of common control systems with a single platform that can start small and be expanded with future growth. Regardless of the size or scope of the operation, PCS 7 can handle the process."03【中国自动化网社区】a908ae【http://sns.ca800.com】2adcda
New capabilities offered with Version 7 include: 03【中国自动化网社区】a908ae【http://sns.ca800.com】2adcda

Redundant fieldbus with Safety Communication - New PROFIBUS PA re-dundancy provides increased availability and reliable safety communication for instrumentation and control elements. 03【中国自动化网社区】a908ae【http://sns.ca800.com】2adcda
Integration of Foundation Fieldbus - Engineers who have standardized on Foundation Fieldbus instrumentation can integrate with PCS 7 and Siemens plant-wide asset management system. fd【中国自动化网社区】f0c9cc【http://sns.ca800.com】9e
Smart Alarm Management - Advanced alarm management tools help mini-mize unplanned downtime and achieve operational excellence with state-based alarming and alarm shelving. fd【中国自动化网社区】f0c9cc【http://sns.ca800.com】9e
Industrial / Cyber Security - A comprehensive approach to industrial security (virus scanners, firewalls, user management, access control, auto-configuration of Windows firewalls, and "defense in depth" architectures) helps protect automation assets from cyberspace threats.fd【中国自动化网社区】f0c9cc【http://sns.ca800.com】9e
Plant Asset Management and Condition Monitoring- Siemens plant asset management system has been expanded to support user-defined equipment assets (including heat exchangers, distillation columns, tanks, and others). The expansion also defines key asset condition monitoring (including pump power consumption and pressure drop). As a result, plants may implement preventive and predictive maintenance strategies to minimize costs.fd【中国自动化网社区】f0c9cc【http://sns.ca800.com】9e
