New features in the latest release of the system:
System footprint reduction. New technology controllers expand the capabilities of the Logix family, delivering advanced performance and processing speed, while also simplifying the PlantPAx architecture. This reduced system footprint also lowers the total cost of ownership throughout the entire lifecycle.
Ensuring system stability. Thanks to unique process instructions built into the controllers, project teams can apply various approaches to managing stability strategies for both individual projects and equipment deployed across multiple sites.
Streamlined workflows. Development teams will configure instrumentation, alarms, and diagnostic system elements. Operators will gain enhanced capabilities for viewing basic control logic in a secure, protected mode.
TÜV Cybersecurity Certification. To mitigate risks, the PlantPAx 5.0 system architecture is TÜV-certified for compliance with the international standard ISA-99/IEC 62443-3-3, which covers the implementation of systems with electronic security measures.
Analytics Features. The new PlantPAx 5.0 version features specialized software structures that combine real-time and historical data from the DCS with reporting and analytics tools. This enables advanced features, such as augmented reality, and integration with scalable analytics packages.
