I work at a design firm, and I now want to learn about the DCS systems used by different companies
Thread Content
I work at a design firm, and I now need to learn about the various DCS systems available. I used to work at Honeywell, so I’m familiar with EPKS, but I’m not as familiar with those from Yokogawa, ABB, Emerson, and Siemens. I hope to get some help here. Especially, what is the strength of each engineering team?
If you are interested in learning about Honeywell, I can provide some information
What do you want to know about these plants? Each one has its own characteristics, but ABB or Yokogawa are mostly used in oil refining...
I need module information for Honeywell PKS or TPS so that I can make a better selection. Please contact me at moonundersun@163.com. I’ve posted information on Emerson Option on this page; there’s quite a lot there, you can take a look: http://bbs.hcbbs.com/thread-390945-1-1.html. Let’s communicate more
Siemens’ PCS7 is pretty good and stable, but the customer service is definitely poor – it’s really annoying whenever I think about it.
We work in the LNG sector. We are currently choosing a DCS from Honeywell, Yokogawa, ABB, and Emerson – do you have any suggestions?
The original poster wasn’t fair – they said they would provide the information, but I just need some IO modules; it’s not even a hassle to send an email. I do have some from other manufacturers though...
Any of the companies listed above will work fine; there are no issues with either the hardware or software. The differences between them lie mainly in their engineering capabilities and performance levels – each has its strengths. When it comes to using such devices, what’s most important is to see whether they have extensive experience, as this can save the client a lot of trouble. The design institute can request it directly from the manufacturer, and they will provide it.
How should I put it? Basically, each store has its own characteristics! But then again! Beijing 3D Force Control is widely used in the petrochemical industry. You should know that this has been developing all along with the oil industry. We can chat more on QQ. My ID is: 531134406
That LNG process section? Each system has its own distinct features. If your starting point in design is a preference for bus-type field instruments, especially smart meters, then Emerson DeltaV combined with FF is the ideal choice for you. In the LNG industry, this solution performs quite well at the moment. If you are used to placing the IO stations in their original locations, then the fully intrinsically safe IO stations of the S900 series from ABB represent the best choice – they offer many advantages and are safer than the traditional approach of using isolation barriers. If you prefer something simple to use and are under financial pressure, Yokogawa is a good choice. And what if you are a fan of Honeywell? It also places more emphasis on the performance of the LNG industry, so Honeywell could be a good option to consider.
For the petrochemical industry, Yokogawa is the first choice. Some of the early products are still in use after 30 years.
For a stable system, Yokogawa and Honeywell are the top choices; for cost savings, Siemens is the option to go for.
Well, everyone seems to prefer foreign giants. Hmm, can’t we also support our domestic products? After all, foreign brands have also improved through experience gained from our use of them, right? As a person who values self-reliance, I think that while we’re in school, we should all work to develop our own products! The products are all provided by component suppliers, so can we choose better ones?
