Maximize your uptime with the security of our fault-tolerant design. Our open software approach with the FDT standard allows you to plug in the best of breed engineering & maintenance software, with complete diagnostic access through the control processor & the FF linking device.
Our FF Solution Maximizes Your Operational Savings. Invensys is first to offer FF DTMs for device diagnostics & the first to support Enhanced Device Descriptions (EDD) for simpler device configuration. Our Field Device Manager (FDM) allows you to revolutionize device maintenance, increase efficiency, & prevent large economic losses from unplanned shutdowns - through using advanced valve diagnostic tools.
We Make FF Simple. Engineering FF devices is potentially complex. With Infusion Engineering Environment & FDM we make these tasks intuitive & painless.
Eliminate Wasted Instrument Maintenance Man hours. Users with legacy products report they spend more than 50% of their device maintenance effort on callouts where no problem is found - wasting time. Our System Manager alarms when a device needs maintenance & FDM enables comprehensive analysis from the control room.
Reductions in Instrument Caused Plant Downtime. Moving to predictive device maintenance & reducing the chances of an unexpected device failure lets plant personnel spot valve & other device problems before they become severe, giving time to plan corrective action without downtime.
Faster Device Commissioning. FF devices have numerous complex parameters to set, with lots of opportunities for human error. Our Commissioning Wizard automates these actions. You reap huge savings by starting up plants ahead of schedule. Device replacement after failures is greatly simplified also.
Freedom of Device Vendor Choice & Greater Interoperability. Our support of DD, enhanced DD, & FDT technologies means you can use any field device, even if the vendor only embraces the legacy and mandatory DD technology.
Reusable Engineering. Smart Device Templates deliver the utmost in reusable engineering. The smart template sets up the configuration & commissioning behavior for a each device model, & gives you the ability to customize maintenance viewing screens.
Better Control Uptime. Our hardware robustness & capabilities of our Mesh network, Control Processors, and FBM228s to tolerate faults & continue operation is best in class. The risk of multiple control loop downtime, & faults that make operations blind to control function blocks for a redundant CP & FBM, is virtually zero.
