1. PES: An Innovative Approach to
Process Automation Development
and Energy Management
John Cavalenes, End User Product Management
Frank Prendergast, System Architect
2. Key Trends in Automation
●Workforce Crisis
● Skills shortage
● Need simpler tools
●Cost Pressure
● Produce more with less
● Energy is a key part of cost
●Flexibility
● Customer needs change rapidly
● Maintain uptime
3. Implications of Trends and Needs
●Less funds available
●Reduced workforce (less resources to
develop in-house solutions or no core
activities)
●Need to produce more with less
●Minimize design time
●Optimize project cost
●Operating cost reduction
●Maintenance cost reduction

10. The System Translates Each Operation
P&ID Diagram
Application
● Model the application as it is in the real world and improve the reusability
Process
12. Concurrent Engineering
● Facilitate communication about design
enhancements and process adjustments
● Delegate sections of PROCESS to various
stakeholders, not sections of CODE
● Tear down barriers between Maintenance
and Engineering departments to get up and
running fast
● Several users can work on the same
libraries and applications simultaneously
from different work stations
● Check-in and check-out features are
managed by the system and the user is
always informed about the status of the
applications
15. An integrated object offers
consistent functionality throughout
the system
The model is open and extensible
so engineers can build their own
objects if needed
The system takes care of the
application lifecycle, managing the
changes needed throughout the
plant life
Ensures consistency across your system and drives operational efficiency
Object Oriented
16. ●Dedicated Libraries
●Control Devices
● Drives, motor starters, power
meters, energy consumption, etc.
●Process control
● Signal conditioning, process loop,
sequence logic, motor control,
etc.
● Users can modify and/or create their
own libraries
● With diagnostic and maintenance
information for operators and
maintenance staff
●User guides, maintenance
procedures, etc.
Dedicated Process Libraries

We understand your challengesWe understand what you expect from automation to help you face those challengesAnd this is what we did…On the one hand of the spectrum we have the traditionalPLC/Scada offering> applications built on a PLC/Scada platform are typically very flexible, are open and make connection to 3d party components easy, and last but not least, cost effective> But on the other hand, there is a very low level of integration, which means your teams have to manage many different toolsOn the other hand of the spectrum we have the traditionalDCS or Distributed Control Systems> DCS systems bring a high level of integration, are built on a single master database which brings a number of key values e.g. global consistency of data, powerful diagnostics…> But on the other hand, DCS systems are not known to be very open, flexible nor easy to implementSo what we did….we took the best of both worlds>> PlantStruxure, is our Process Automation System> PlantStruxure keeps the flexibility, openness and ease of use from the traditional PLC/SCADA world…We took the high integration, and the single master database from the DCS world…This enables us to deliver some powerful featuresWe bring you…PlantStruxure PES
Let’s take a look at the PROCESS ENGINEER’s VIEW…Starting from the P&ID of the plant, the process engineers identify the different units, equipments and control modules. A control module is defined in the system as a PlantStruxure PES Object. A PlantStruxure PES Object is composed of different elements like control logic, graphic representation, documentation, manuals, etc.
What is really cool is that with PlantStruxure PES, all the data about your process is available in one single place This enables PlantStruxure PES to combine data from different domains like power and process This provides both operators and managers some powerful new insights in what is happening in their plant.To make this possible, we have implemented integration between power and process at each possible level.on Field level: We integrated power and process devices in the same architecture to create an energy aware infrastructure on Control level: We integrated Process Control and Energy Control to allow some powerful functions such as grid level load control and production load modeling > we can forecast how much energy your plant should be using…if you’re actually using more…there is a problem… this will allow you to detect inefficiencies/wast in your plant on Operations level: We integrated Process and Energy Scada to make intelligent functions on operator level such as an energy scheduler and multi-level demand response possible.This integration brings a new level of understanding and visibility of where waste is created in your process, This newly gained insight will allow you now to take actions to reduce that waste. Reducing waste will directly improve your bottom line.Basically, PlantStruxure PES allows you to embed active Energy Management in your process to eliminate energy waste, and for that matter any kind of waste, from your process / at the source of overconsumption
Would you agree with me that in the past it seemed mandatory for the user interface of an industrial system to look very old and be difficult to use?This is the age of iPads and iPods…with some amazing flexible, easy to use, intuitive interfacesOK, that is the consumerworld…we are in industryBut…there is absolutely no reason why we can not have “this”…”there”Your teams deserve that same flexible, easy to use, intuitive interfacesSo that’s exactly what we did… PlantStruxure PES provides an intuitive, flexible and powerful user experience. Things that everyday people take for granted like drag and drop, multi-screens, smart navigation and tabs are not the norm for plant operators, maintenance personnel and design teams. With a single objective:Making sure that your team can focus on what matters most i.e. keeping the plant up and running, and not waste time looking for the tool you need and how to use it. PlantStruxure PES’ innovative user experience will increase the productivity of your teams.
In RUN TIME, Operators can Operate the Plant taking the benefits of the object oriented approach, and if needed powerful diagnostics can be enabled to avoid downtime, …. Documentation, Manuals, web access are inherit to the object, and if needed PES allows you to navigate from the supervision system to the control logic in the controller to quickly identify the root cause of any failure.
