Advanced automation for the nitrogen generation plant
Integrated solution for the efficient and safe management of a nitrogen production plant, with redundant architecture and DCS communication
Challenge
- Integration of heterogeneous systems: Coordinate and automate different components such as compressors, dryers and generators within a single control architecture.
- Reliability and availability: Ensure operational continuity of the plant through a redundant control system.
- Effective communication: Ensure smooth and reliable communication between the automation system and the plant’s DCS.
Results/benefits achieved by the customer
- Cost reduction: Optimisation of automation and cabling costs through the use of a single high-availability unit and decentralisation of I/Os.
- Increased reliability: Higher system availability thanks to the redundant architecture, which ensures business continuity even in the event of failures.
- Scalability and flexibility: The system can be easily expanded or modified in the future, thanks to the modularity of the implemented architecture.
- Efficient integration: Smooth and reliable communication with the plant’s DCS, improving supervision and process control.
