System
System Size Increase. Now DeltaV can handle any size
project you've got. Node count has grown nearly 90% from 32
up to 60 nodes, and total system capacity is up 200% to 15,000
DSTs. And our next growth spurt will knock your socks off!
Operations
Alarm Enhancements. More flexibility and focus than
ever in alarm management and history collection -- in up to
100 areas. Turn alarm filtering on or off from a new security-controlled,
pre-engineered alarm filtering display. Count all unacknowledged
and active alarms for an area on the alarm filtering display.
Dual Monitor. Talk about viewing convenience! See
more of the process in greater dimension and detail. Get the
big picture of your plant operation on one screen; zero in
on specifics on the other. Watch a process area on one screen,
while managing the alarms on the other.
Touch Screens. Operator functions you would typically
perform with a mouse, you can now perform with a touch to
a 21" monitor -- even on dual monitor workstations. Use
intuitive finger touch to access the process control system
to answer alarm conditions, call up displays and to make process
changes using existing displays and faceplates.
Multiple Faceplates. View and adjust multiple tags
to interact with each other on screen. "Push pin"
feature lets you keep an eye on selected tags while you search
and review other plant areas. Great for those cascaded and
feed-forward control loops.
1280 x1024 Graphics Resolution. More pixel power
automatically adjusts the display layout so the interface
opens full screen -- even for increased resolution monitors.
Or use the new default display option in Graphics Studio for
increased resolution on your process graphics without increasing
the resolution of your alarm banner and toolbar.
Engineering
More Field Device Function Blocks. We've added more
FOUNDATION™ fieldbus function blocks
so you can do more with your smart field devices.
Bulk Edit Field Device Support And Enhanced Performance.
Big new performance benefits! Improved user-defined control
module export performance makes configurations easier, quicker
than ever. New user-defined imports let you specify function
block usage names in fieldbus devices, and to bind shadow
blocks to field blocks in control modules. It all means greater
control over the fieldbus configuration phase.
Comparator Block. Comparing values was never so easy.
Use it to replace the Condition block to evaluate single comparisons.
Reduces CPU loading and makes your control strategy easy to
read.
Arithmetic Block. Provides powerful, flexible, easy
configuration of arithmetic functions, including flow and
level compensation.
Engineering Tool Performance. Got the need for speed?
We've increased your productivity by speeding up tasks. Bulk
edit import/export and controller downloads are now twice
as fast, Recipe Studio three times faster, and a whopping
150x speed increase for tag verification. Plus acceleration
for most batch-related configuration and operation tasks.
Controller, I/O, Field Device
Intrinsically Safe I/O. Delivers an integrated solution
for intrinsically safe analog input HART®, analog output,
discrete input, and discrete output DeltaV I/O. No need for
IS barriers or marshalling panels, so you reduce equipment
cost and footprint. Capable of withstanding Class I, Division
2, IEC Zone 2 environmental conditions. IS field circuits
and field devices can be located in Class I, Division 1, Zone
1, and Zone 0 hazardous areas.
SMAR Devices Pass The DeltaV Stress Test. Your freedom
to choose among varying field device suppliers is growing
daily, as Fisher-Rosemount's fieldbus lab continues testing.
Here are the latest SMAR fieldbus devices tested and approved
for the DeltaV host system:
- Smar Intl LD-302 Pressure
- Smar Intl TT-302 Temperature
- Smar Intl IF-302 Current to FB Converter
- Smar Intl FI-302 FB to Current Converter
- Smar Intl FP-302 FB to Air Pressure Converter
- Smar Intl FY-302 FB to Position.
Generic Device Support. In addition to those devices
in the DeltaV fieldbus device library, any FOUNDATION™
fieldbus compliant device, regardless of manufacturer, can
be recognized by the DeltaV system. A note of caution: many
fieldbus devices suppliers are in early stages of development.
We recommend the selection of suppliers of devices which have
passed the DeltaV stress test.
Backup LAS. More security; more peace of mind. With
Backup Link Active Scheduling (LAS), field devices continue
executing control strategies even if the H1 FOUNDATION™
fieldbus card fails.
Rosemount's 8742C Magnetic Flow Meter.
Fisher-Rosemount's fieldbus testing lab has added this device
to an ever-expanding library of fully tested fieldbus devices
for the DeltaV host system.
Expanded Controller. A 33% increase -- up to 64 I/O
cards may be included per DeltaV controller, and it supports
a full range of analog (with and without HART) and discrete
card types. This increase is available for both vertical and
horizontal mount carriers and is applicable for both M3 and
M5 controllers!
Enterprise Connectivity
DeltaV WebServer. View your plant process graphics
in any standard web browser from anywhere in the world --
even from home in real-time. You can also view historical
information using the trend application and see it update
in real-time, along with process alarms and events generated
by the plant.
OPC 2.0 Server. Lets you develop industrial-strength
clients more easily, and leverage today's Microsoft COM technologies.
Revolutionary OPC automation interface enhancements let you
use Microsoft Office applications as direct OPC clients --
easy.
Batch
DeltaV Batch Aliasing. Simplifies implementation,
testing, validation and maintenance with unit relative equipment,
phase logic, and recipe logic. Developing unit relative equipment
strategies has never been easier. With DeltaV aliasing capabilities,
there's less software to design, implement, test, validate
and maintain. Result: reduced initial project and long-term
support costs -- for a better bottom line!
Dynamic Referencing. Provides even more flexibility
by allowing parameter reference paths to be decided at run
time as part of the SFC, phase logic or function blocks.
Better Batch Security. The Batch Executive now runs
as an NT service for more reliability (continues to run even
if you log off). Interlopers can't modify or shut down the
batch without proper privileges and security access.
Advanced Control
DeltaV Inspect. The key to sustained performance,
DeltaV Inspect identifies abnormal conditions in field devices
and control loops sooner -- for performance audit savings,
reduced production loss and off-spec product. No configuration
required. Inspect automatically adapts as you add control
modules.
