Fieldbus controller

The component controllers used in the controller subsystem portion of the DCS can be of various types and include multiloop controllers, programmable logic controllers, personal computer controllers, singleloop controllers, and fieldbus controllers. The type of elec tronic con-troUer utihzed depends on the size and func tional characteristic of the process apphcation being controlled. See the earlier section on distributed control systems. [Pg.775]

Presently, fieldbus controllers are single-loop controllers with 8- and 16-bit microprocessors and are options to digital field-control devices. These controllers support the basic PID control algorithm... [Pg.776]

Currently, the trend in process control is away from centrahzed process control and toward an increased number of small distributed-control or PLC systems. This trend will put emphasis on the evolution of the fieldbus controller and continued growth of the PC-based controller. Also, as hardware and software improves, the functionality of the controller will increase, and the supporting hardware will be physically smaller. Hence, the traditional lines between the DCS and the PLC will become less distinct as systems will be capable of supporting either function set. [Pg.776]

Several manufacturers provide fieldbus controllers that reside in the final control element or measurement transmitter. A suitable communications modem is present in the device to interface with a proprietary PC-based, or hybrid analog/digital bus network. Case studies in implementing such digital systems have shown significant reductions in cost of installation (mostly cabling and connections) vs. traditional analog field communication. [Pg.1986]

More microprocessor-based process equipment, such as smart instruments and single-loop controllers, with digital communications capability are now becoming available and are used extensively in process plants. A fieldbus, which is a low-cost protocol, is necessary to perform efficient communication between the DCS and these devices. So-called mini-MAP architec ture was developed to satisfy process control and instrumentation requirements while incorporating existing ISA standards. It is intended to improve access time while... [Pg.775]

System installation in a permanent location may require a sample conditioning system featuring some degree of automation, such as automatic cleaning (the system illustrated above features such a system) and outlier sample collection and the need to interface to an existing control system process computer. The latter may require that the system operates with a standardized communications protocol, such as Modbus, for the chemical industry. Certain specialized industries use different protocols, such as the semiconductor industry, which uses SECS and SEC-11 protocols. A standardized approach designated the Universal Fieldbus is another method/protocol for process analyzers which is being supported by certain hardware manufacturers. [Pg.181]

The high-performance, all-digital, multidrop communication protocol for use in the process-control industry is known as fieldbus. Presently there are several regional and industry-based fieldbus standards including the French standard, FIP (NFC 4660x approved by UTE), the German standard, Profibus (DIN 19245 approved by DKE), and proprietary standards by DCS vendors. As of 1997, none of these fieldbus standards have been adopted by international standards organizations. [Pg.610]

The electronic equipment and systems technology available for process control continues to evolve rapidly. Because of the pace of innovation, industry-wide standards have not been able to keep up consequently different manufacturers systems usually use proprietary technology and are often not fully compatible with each other. The implementation of the ISA SP50 Fieldbus standard is expected to substantially... [Pg.287]

The fieldbus approach to distributed control is shown in Figure 15.16. Control is distributed to intelligent field-mounted devices (i.e., sensors, valves, and controllers with onboard microproces-... [Pg.1186]
