Regarding Siemens’ systems

Are Siemens systems used less in the chemical industry? How come I see people on the forum saying that there are few Siemens systems?

You mean PCS7, right? We use PCS7 in our compound fertilizer project – the system is stable and its modules are not prone to damage. Installation is rather complicated, and the backup size for the configuration items is huge. I don’t like domestic DCS systems whose backups are just a few megabytes in size; even after compression, their backup sizes remain in the tens of megabytes.

Haha, Siemens products are used frequently. At first, I thought Germans were really stupid for creating something so complicated. But as I encountered more problems in projects, I realized that they had thought things through very carefully; it was a matter of precision rather than stupidity.

Siemens’ S7 system is widely used in the chemical industry, especially in various individual chemical equipment units such as compressors and filter presses. . . . ). However, the incompatibility between the Siemens S5 and S7 systems introduced in the early days did cause significant trouble for many users.

Many 4in1 and 3in1 nitric acid production units use Siemens S7 series controllers

It won the bids at low prices for both the Qingdao large-scale oil refining project and the Fushun large-scale oil refining project. The entire plant is equipped with DCS systems, with tens of thousands of I/O points – a breakthrough for PCS7!

Composites, petrochemicals, rubber – there are many

Could everyone please mention where it is specifically applied? Thank you!

The 70,000-ton or 100,000-ton nitric acid 4-in-1 plant of Jinxiang Chemical uses 400H

In the papermaking system, the 1 million-ton Hainan Jinhai Pulp project makes use of PCS7, which is very convenient for programming. Its advantages lie in stability, along with a large number of available programming modules, so there is no need to think things through manually.

The Siemens S7300/400 is used in many fields, including the chemical industry, metallurgy, and power generation sector. As a flagship PLC product, it offers significant advantages for sequence control in the chemical industry; it is easy and flexible to configure, and its price is low. PCS7 is a DCS product that offers significant advantages in the chemical industry; it is used in plants that require routine control, and its configuration is simple and fast. Our company has one set of pressure swing adsorption system S7300, one set of PCS7, one set of dust removal system S7200, and three sets of compressor control systems S7300. It is running stably at the moment, with no problems occurring. This post was last edited by Mobei Yihai on 2009-3-18 10:14.]
