DCS Systems for Continuous Process Control
COMPAS automation delivered the process control system for all technologies of the sugar refinery in several stages: receipt of sugar beet, diffusion, evaporation tanks, cooking tanks, utilities, limekiln and power supply. The automation system that the Client selected is DCS – SIEMENS Simatic PCS7 in the scope of about 5000 I/O. An interesting feature of this project is the installation of AS400 HF redundant controllers for controlling the boiler room and the power plant, including the Fail Safe system for burner control.
We provide non-stop service in the 24/7 regime to the Client during the campaign.
We installed COMES Historian for collecting and archiving technological values. Production reports and statistics are processed in COMES Modeller. COMES OEE is used for the control and evaluation of the efficiency of packing processes.
