Make your energy productive

3Monitor, maintain, improveTrack your energy useWith our integrated energy management functionalities, you can now make single-seat decisions about energy use and allocation in full alignment with your business KPIs.

• Enterprise-level, energy-focused business intelligence software solutions• Load shedding for peak hours• Energy supplier allocation

PlantStruxure PES gives you the power to embed Active Energy ManagementTM into your process. It delivers an integrated architecture for both process management and energy management. By combining energy and process data in one system, this state-of-the-art architecture helps you to reduce energy consumption and waste for a positive real-time impact on your process efficiency.

PlantStruxure PES lets you visualize and optimize your production and energy use in real time, connecting your plant’s field, process and enterprise levels which allows for easy energy monitoring. It also greatly reduces energy waste at the source of over consumption by automating processes, and making energy more productive.

PlantStruxure PES turns intelligent energy into a key performance indicator, making your hard decisions easier.

The PlantStruxure PES Low Voltage Power Control Library provides you with a full set of objects (source generators, bus bars, bus couplers, etc.) and their related control and associated faceplate. This library provides monitoring capabilities with single line diagrams that represent the power network of the plant. It also offers additional capabilities such as shutdown of less critical loads in case of emergency. This helps ensure that a power plant system can withstand an emergency with minimal damage.

1 2Measure your electrical energy flows• Power metering and monitoring is a simple

solution that provides field operators with an initial understanding of energy flow

• It gives information on electrical consumption in subsystems, and on electrical flows and advanced functions to log and sort events on the electrical network

• It facilitates detailed measurement and understanding of energy use in the plant to improve efficiency through coordinated actions

Measure your process variables• Our connectivity solutions are based on Ethernet,

an open standard which allows the integration of measurements from field instruments or other field devices (e.g. valves)

• Connectivity across the entire process provides effective measurements that enable more accurate assessments

Optimize the usage of energy in your process• Intelligent Power Motor Control Centre (iPMCC)

fill a strategic gap between energy and control. Motor information provides real-time insight and improved motor protection. As a tested and validated component, it enables lower process downtime and optimized energy consumption

• Use integrated intelligent software solutions to quantify energy waste in the process and identify continuous improvement projects

Automate your process to optimize results• Our state-of-the-art PlantStruxure PES integrates

controllers, operating and monitoring systems and networks into a seamless architecture that makes it easy to get a complete view of your energy use.

PlantStruxure PES improves efficiency along the engineering phase, accelerating your plant start-up and minimizing project risks.

Intuitive and modern user interfacePlantStruxure PES embeds all the software tools necessary to design a process application. • Application manager describes the equivalent plant hierarchy• Topology manager describes the overall topology of the system• Project manager defines the project that runs in the topology In addition, the library manager contains extensive object templates organized into libraries.

Standardize and reuse your applicationApproved control system standards reduce development cost, time and risks. PlantStruxure PES includes a set of object libraries and application templates that help kick-start the design process. The ready-to-use libraries can be modified to suit your specific preferences.

A fully sustainable investmentPlantStruxure PES remains adaptable to your needs at every stage of your application lifecycle. The original design of the process application can be adjusted at any time, and the system will execute the modifications by propagating the required changes across the plant.

Modifications of an object facet can be applied to all composite objects or to the selected instances only, and they are propagated to all related participants (control, monitoring, etc.). System libraries support versioning, always verifying consistency and informing you about any discrepancy between the object model and its instances.

All-in-one configurationPlantStruxure PES offers an all-in-one configuration functionality, allowing faster system design from a single point of data entry. Via application manager, you replicate the application as it is in real life, using your own model, the ISA88 or ISA95 standards, or any other model of choice. The design can be based on a hierarchical organization according to the P&ID definition, allowing easier evolution of the installation.

PlantStruxure PES brings flexibilityOur system simplifies the implementation of changes in your applications and manages the adjustments required through the plant’s lifecycle.

Innovative platform The PlantStruxure PES platform is the key environment that houses the system structure, database and single object model.The participants are the external components that collaborate with the platform to offer a unified engineering lifecycle.

Get a complete picture of your production processThe ability to provide operators with clear process information is crucial to driving production efficiency. PlantStruxure PES provides a consistent control and operational interface with a real-time view of your process. The system delivers operators all the data they need to make timely and accurate decisions.

From any PES operator station, you can monitor your process and identify the root cause of any disturbanceClick on any animated symbol on the display to directly access object faceplates. Each faceplate gives you basic object information (also indicated by the status icon on the object) along with a wealth of other data, such as monitoring parameters, interlocks, alarms, and others.

TrendingTrends are a seamless combination of real-time and historical data. When users view a trend page, they can monitor the current activity as it happens, and simply scroll back through time to view the trend history. The distributed trending system handles large numbers of variables without compromising performance or data integrity. Operators can choose from a selection of pre-configured trend pages that provide clear data representation with customizable views for quick and simple trend analysis.

Advanced alarms and eventsAn efficient alarm tool allows users to quickly identify and isolate faults within the system or process, thereby reducing plant downtime. The PlantStruxure PES alarm system is fast and reliable, providing you with detailed information about the status of your plant. Alarms are displayed on dedicated alarm pages, with the most recent alarms visible at all times in the alarm banner on every page. Working in conjunction with the controller, alarms are time-stamped with precision, and to one millisecond where available. This accuracy can be essential when differentiating between alarms that occur in rapid succession, such as with iPMCC.

HistorianThe PlantStruxure PES collects process, quality and energy data from your plant and generates detailed reports to help decision making. It seamlessly connects to your production and business systems to ensure that the right people have access to the information they need. This is made possible by combining real-time production data with the easy and secure accessibility of the database.

Contextual alarm help:

Each alarm can be linked to contextual online alarm help that gives the operator all the relevant information to help them identify and remove the cause of the disturbance.

Alarm analysis:

Each alarm can be linked to an analysis window that shows the operator all relevant live and archived information that can be helpful in diagnosing its cause, enabling them to better understand the process event.

Get more information about your alarm:

Priority, category, time stamping, etc.

All the standard DCS functionalities are available in the PlantStruxure PES operator interface, including:
