SIMATIC PCS 7 is the process automation offering from Siemens, designed to bring together all primary and secondary components of the process in a single platform.
Details
PCS 7 provides the ideal basis for a cost-effective implementation and economical operation of control systems with electrical and instrument architectures. The advantages of PCS 7 become quickly evident during planning and engineering phases, and can be further witnessed during installation and commissioning, plus everyday operation, maintenance, repairs and modernisation:
- Minimisation of the total cost of ownership (TCO), based on calculable development, implementation and lifecycle costs
- High performance and quality coupled with high security, reliability and availability
- Process Safety suitable for applications up to SIL-3 of the IEC61508/11 standard
- Batch for conformance to S88 standard, ensuring a high repeatable and traceable process
- Profibus PA for seamless integration of Instrument and Analytic devices
- Implementation of IT security to protect against unauthorised manipulations
- Continuous development and technological innovation
- Step-by-step modernisation for limiting the expenditure on new investments
- Global support with expertise, service, upgrades and spare parts provide by our own system specialists and authorized partners
Such uniformity with its reduced interface overhead provides maximum transparency at all levels. Throughout the entire life cycle of a plant, the operator benefits from the fact that TIA is based on interfaces with long-term stability and guarantees maximum safeguarding of investments due to further compatible developments.
