Field Digital Device Diagnostics for Effective Use of Device Information - Visualizing Device Status and Reducing Device Alarms in a Chemical Plant

摘要

Digitized field devices provide a large amount of information, requiring users to identify important information among the many alarms and events and to suppress unnecessary device alarms. Yokogawa's Field Digital Device Diagnostics service, one of the services of Plant Asset Effectiveness Optimization Services InsightSuiteAE, solves these issues. This service includes the Field Asset Key Performance Indicator (KPI) Report which visualizes the state of health of field devices by using data in Plant Resource Manager (PRM), and Baseline Tuning which optimizes the parameters of field devices and PRM for effective operation. This report outlines the Field Digital Device Diagnostics service and introduces its application examples.
