Honeywell Experion R400
22 June, 2010 | Honeywell Process Solutions
Several enhancements to the Experion Process Knowledge System (PKS) help process manufacturers more easily and cost-effectively manage their automation and control systems. Experion R400 includes advancements that lower the cost of open system ownership, with features such as an extended support life, flexible, direct on-process migration paths, virtualisation and easier installation and migration. These elements are intended to allow industrial facilities to focus on leveraging open systems benefits to improve business instead of managing the challenges with systems themselves.
Honeywell OneWireless R200
22 June, 2010 | Honeywell Process Solutions
Enhancements to the OneWireless offering are intended to give industrial facilities more options to tailor wireless networks to best fit their needs. OneWireless R200, which is now fully compliant with the ISA100.11a standard, will allow plants to design a wireless network with different types of wireless coverage. Depending on application requirements, plants can design networks that provide either wireless coverage for field instruments only or coverage for both field instruments and Wi-Fi devices. This provides plants with more flexibility while reducing the total cost of ownership.
Honeywell Field Advisor software
22 June, 2010 | Honeywell Process Solutions
Honeywell has released Field Advisor software. Based on technology acquired from Shell Global Solutions in December 2009, the software helps plants to reduce costly emergency work and unplanned shutdowns by allowing mobile operators to more easily rectify problems in the field, before they escalate and result in equipment failure.
Honeywell Experion Process Knowledge System gains virtualisation
24 March, 2010 | Honeywell Process Solutions
Honeywell has announced it is providing virtualisation technology for its Experion Process Knowledge System (PKS). This technology can help manufacturers streamline Experion system management and lower the total cost of ownership by up to 30%.
