1 Plant Asset Management through Fieldgate

2 Fieldgates... Plant Access Points In order to ensure optimal performance and availability of your plant, it is crucial to have excellent commissioning, condition monitoring and maintenance of your equipment. Intelligent devices connected to appropriate software tools for device operation and Plant Asset Management can help tremendously to ease your daily work. How would you like the ability to setup, check and adjust your equipment remotely? automatically document all changes for quality assurance? permanently monitor device conditions for predictive maintenance? see your entire plant, independent of communication protocol? To achieve these benefits, Fieldgate FXA520 for HART and Fieldgate FXA720 for PROFIBUS provide the required connectivity between intelligent field devices and software tools. Fieldgate FXA520 Fieldgate FXA520 provides worldwide connectivity to HART devices via: Ethernet TCP/IP LAN, Intranet or Internet Telephone lines (analog) Public Switched Telephone Networks (PSTN) Mobile communications (GSM/GPRS) wireless connection via cellular phone Fieldgate FXA520 retrieves measured values and set-up parameters and manages them in an internal database. It not only transfers current measured values, it can also be used to monitor device status, gather information and alert the responsible standby personnel, if required, via or SMS. Fieldgate FXA720 Fieldgate FXA720 provides worldwide connectivity to PROFIBUS devices via: Ethernet TCP/IP LAN, Intranet or Internet Fieldgate FXA720 is available one, two or three channels, each allowing the connection of up to 125 PROFIBUS devices. It can be configured to operate as a transparent Ethernet/PROFIBUS DP gateway or to scan the devices connected to it. In scan mode, the measured values and status of each connected device can be read from the embedded Web-server any Web-browser. In gateway mode, host applications, including, have direct access to connected devices. 2

3 ... and Plant Asset Management is Endress+Hauser s FDTbased Plant Asset Management tool. In combination Fieldgate FXA720 or FXA520 respectively, it supports all PROFIBUS and HART devices throughout the plant life-cycle. It performs all Plant Asset Management tasks, from device parametrization through to advanced diagnosis. is available in three versions, Lite, Standard and Professional, which are scaled to meet the task at hand. Features and Benefits Network and Plant View Quick retrieval of information thanks to structuring according to ISA S88 Document Management manuals, SOPs, certificates, etc. linked to relevant device Placeholders Display and documentation of transparent or non-communicating equipment User Management Access rights assigned according to user authorisation Device DTMs Simple parametrization, including addressing, diagnosis and linearization Activity Logging and Reporting All changes to the application or project registered and traceable Report Management Status reports on devices, applications and projects 3

4 Plant Asset Management Simple integration of HART legacy systems Plant Asset Management Ethernet TCP/IP Existing controller Fieldgate FXA520 HART Multiplexer RS ma HART point-to-point signal taps Many industries today are implementing Plant Asset Management (PAM) to support maintenance operations. Centralized management, execution and documentation of required adjustments, calibrations and software updates help to obtain optimal performance as well as to satisfy GMP in regulated industries. By using Fieldgate FXA520 and, an existing installation can be upgraded for Plant Asset Management (PAM). will operate any HART device. Since the vast majority of ma devices sold over the past decade have been HART devices, these can now be integrated into a Plant Asset Management system. The only thing required is a connection to : a job for Fieldgate FXA520. Solution The HART signal on the ma line to the controller is tapped and transmitted point-to-point to a HART multiplexer. This communicates Fieldgate FXA520 via a RS-485 interface. Fieldgate and are connected via Ethernet. Thanks to the nested communication ability of FDT technology, communicates directly the legacy HART devices. Device status can be read and parameters adjusted centrally. Components PAM application Fieldgate FXA520 HART Multiplexer Device DTMs (supplied ) Benefits Operates Endress+Hauser and third-party devices including actuators and I/O systems supporting FDT technology Implemented by simply adding to existing plants No need to change an already running system to gain additional benefits Centralized management, when required, over a number of sites centralized time management remote check-up and adjustment by specialists no need for specialists at every site 4

5 Direct and parallel implementation in PROFIBUS systems Plant Asset Management Plant Asset Management Ethernet TCP/IP Ethernet TCP/IP ControlCare SFC173 PROFIBUS controller Controller Fieldgate FXA720 PROFIBUS DP PROFIBUS DP Remote I/O Remote I/O PROFIBUS PA PROFIBUS PA For systems using fieldbus technology such as PROFIBUS DP/PA, the implementation of Plant Asset Management is even simpler. By adding a Fieldgate FXA720, connection can be made between operating on the Ethernet backbone and the PROFIBUS devices. Without disturbing the existing system! HART devices can also be integrated when the Remote I/O has a. For new systems, there are two alternatives: For time-uncritical applications such as parametrization, direct access to the devices through a controller For applications where an independent Plant Asset Management system is desired, e.g. for high reliability and availability, parallel access to the devices through Fieldgate FXA720 Solution operating on the Ethernet backbone connects to the PROFIBUS DP network via the of the Field Controller or Fieldgate FXA720. The DP/PA coupler is normally transparent and requires no. For a Siemens DP/PA Link, the is supplied. Components PAM application For direct access, ControlCare SFC173 PROFIBUS Field Controller or for parallel access, Fieldgate FXA720 If appropriate, HART Remote I/O Device DTMs (supplied ) Benefits Complete flexibilty in the way you implement your Plant Asset Management system Central operation of Endress+Hauser and third-party devices e.g. actuators, drives, motor starters, I/O systems etc. supporting FDT technology Full device functionality as offered by the device manufacturer not the system supplier Operation tested and proven in many open systems as opposed to specific proprietary applications No worries about compatibility on device or tool updates 5

6 Remote Diagnosis HART integration via multiplexer and multidrop Remote Diagnosis Remote Diagnosis Internet connection Internet connection Fieldgate FXA520 or HART client Multiplexer Fieldgate FXA520 or HART client Point-to-point 2x channels Multidrop Many off-site service operations can be avoided by using remote configuration and diagnosis and all others can be better planned and prepared. With Fieldgate FXA520, stand-by personnel can be notified via or SMS about the status of devices. In the event of an alarm or when performing routine checks, service technicians can remotely diagnose and configure connected HART devices. The only thing required for this is the corresponding HART operating software (e.g. ) for the connected device. Fieldgate transmits the information transparently, so that all options for the operating software are available remotely. Components Remote Diagnosis application Fieldgate FXA520 HART Multiplexer or HART multidrop network Device DTMs (supplied ) Benefits Save travelling costs, avoid project delays, etc. No experts needed at site Worldwide access for setup and diagnosis of devices Notification of status by SMS or All device specific parametrization and diagnosis tools at hand in graphical form, e.g. set-up procedures, linearization curves, envelope curves etc. 6
