GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms announced that it has released the
latest version of its process control system: Proficy Process Systems -
Version 1.6. Proficy Process Systems is a fully-integrated process
control system that, based on its flexible configuration, architecture
and choice of controller platforms, can provide customers in different
industries with an advanced DCS or hybrid process control system to
meet their specific needs.
Proficy Process Systems 1.6 continues to enhance the overall system architecture by adding the support of the PAC8000 process controllers and the PACSystems redundant Rx3i controllers.
The controllers can incorporate optional intrinsic safety for hazardous area applications, and they can be field mounted and subjected to extreme temperatures and corrosive atmospheres when required. Features of the PAC8000 include the following:
-40°C to +70°C operating range;
ISA Level G3 corrosion;
30G shock and 5G vibration;
Operation in Class I, Division 2 and Zone 2 hazardous areas with field wiring extending into Division 1 and Zone 1/0 areas;
PAC8000 controllers can pass HART information from smart field devices to a computer running device asset management software, allowing for remote maintenance and calibration. HART data and diagnostics can also be used directly in control applications, reducing commissioning time, process downtime and loop maintenance costs.
With the support of PACSystems Redundant Rx3i controllers, Proficy Process Systems provides a high availability architecture for customers in industries such as food & beverage who will benefit from the discrete, batch, and process capabilities that the PACSystems controllers provide.
