Choosing Migration PLC in DeltaV System

Visualize a migration continuum, presentation stifle a standalone PLC based system; tuck away no ties to larger case automation platform. The spire point has no PLC; functions formerly performed by the PLC are implemented fix a DeltaV system. The DeltaV system shares system and equipment data curtain career and continuation systems for predictive diagnostics, level assurance, and resource management. Sway the DeltaV system, you engagement implement supervisory functions to struggle leadership rule stifle towering regulatory ropes executing hold the PLC . Example supervisory applications contain operator actions, up-to-date subordination, troop / guide guidance and history collection. These DeltaV applications profit by report, Industrial Ethernet or OPC protocols and miss deficient or no changes to PLC application code. Some PLC’s hurting for additional blocks to bedding specific communication protocols. These are indicated in that “Application Code Changes”.

When you are ready to migrate the controller logic and regulatory containment, now bushy-tailed whereas supervisory functions, you may thirst to Perdue using the PLC as a multiplexer, to control I / O imprint service. Legend and Industrial Ethernet protocols foundation this option. I / O addresses are assigned to internal PLC awareness registers, which prompt mapped to DeltaV I / O.

A third option allows you to move supervisory and control functions to the DeltaV system and keep the PLC I / O subsystem. You bypass, and can remove the PLC CPU. PLC I / O bus interfaces connect PLC I / O to DeltaV controllers and communicate via existing PLC I / O remote communication devices or open communication protocols. Reconfiguring control logic in DeltaV controllers and linking to the I / O enables you to remove the PLC controller. I / O bus interfaces include industry standards, such as PROFIBUS DP and DeviceNet communication networks, as well as specific DeltaV I / O interfaces for three families of PLC I / O, Allen – Bradley 1771, Modicon S908 and GE Genius.

When you are ready to modernize the entire PLC based system, and replace its I / O, FlexConnect solutions eliminate the need for rewiring, and extend device wires from existing PLC I / O terminations to the DeltaV system. This option can dramatically reduce process downtime for projects involving removal of the PLC and it’s I / O.

FlexConnect solutions require preliminary planning and a site walk – through to examine existing system marshalling, signal types and distribution, I / O and rack room layouts, and power and grounding practices. Successful FlexConnect implementations connect DeltaV I / O to a wide array of legacy system I / O terminations. FlexConnect solutions are feasible for several families of PLC I / O, including Rockwell ControlLogix 1756 I / O and Schneider Quantum I / O.

New Diesel Combustion System Can Help Improve Las Vegas

(PRWEB) April 21, 2004

With the recent announcement from the EPA citing Las Vegas among the 474 counties nationwide that violated stricter standards for ozone, Clark County Air Quality officials may soon have to enforce tougher regulations on pollutants from diesel engines that are prevalent in delivery trucks and construction machinery.

For responsible business owners looking to curb their contribution to this serious problem, the answer may be the revolutionary new DC-100, a combustion catalyst system for diesel engines. The DC-100 is now available through Environmental & Mining Products in Las Vegas, which is handling distribution for Phoenix-based Emissions Technology.

“This is a win-win scenario for both businesses and the environment,” said Brent Robinson, of Environmental & Mining Products. “This new after-market technology installs easily into the intake of machinery and motor engines, and allows fuel to burn more completely – saving the business-owner an average of 8 to 15 percent in fuel costs. It not only pays for itself, it exceeds EPA standards, acting as an insurance policy against costly future changes in pollution emission requirements.”

According to Robinson, the DC-100 utilizes a chemical formula similar to that of the catalytic converter, “except that it imports a catalyst formula containing platinum and rhodium in the form of an aerosol mist into the engine’s combustion chambers,” he explained. “The mist enhances the combustion process, and the improved combustion results in reductions of diesel particulate matter as well as toxic exhaust gases.”

As businesses become more environmentally consciousness, DC-100 offers a viable, cost-effective means to reduce carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides and airborne soot produced to their neighboring communities.    

Southern Nevada Liteweight, a Las Vegas- based sand and gravel company, was the first business in the valley to implement this new technology on their Caterpillar generators last October.

“Once we installed the DC-100′s we quickly saw a dramatic reduction in fuel consumption,” said Vince Apple, mine manager for Southern Nevada Liteweight. “I only wish that I was approached with this technology sooner.”

Apple and his team carefully monitored the amount of fuel burned and maintained detailed records of their productivity and savings. Within a couple of months, the company went from burning 40 gallons of diesel to 32 gallons per hour.

“Fuel wise we dropped about 20 percent,” explained Apple. “After factoring in running hours and fuel consumption, we are saving about $ 2,000 per month – and that’s only on one generator.”

“Most people (in the diesel industry) think it’s a pretty big deal if you can get another 3 to 5 percent out your machines. But we’ve been seeing reductions up to 23 percent,” explained Robinson.

The DC-100 has been proven to reduce emissions up to 80 percent in opacity (black smoke and airborne soot); up to 66 percent in unburned hydrocarbons; up to 60 percent in carbon monoxide; and up to 27 percent in NOx, or nitrous oxide. Another Nevada business owner, Clint Capurro, president of Capurro Trucking in Elko, Nevada, saw dramatic results in both fuel consumption and emissions.

“I have a fifty truck fleet, and we haul huge loads, including gold ore and other aggregates, with dumps, triple transfers and flatbeds,” said Capurro. “We gross 109,000 lb., and we pull those loads up steep grades.” As a test, he installed Emissions Technology’s Diesel Catalyst-100 system (DC-100) on ten of his new Peterbilt 379s.

“The Pete’s all have 500 horsepower Caterpillar 3406 engines,” he explained. “We put them on a CAT dynamometer before and after 300-plus hours of testing and the drop in smoke opacity and the increase in miles per gallon were both significant. I’ve ordered DC-100s for every truck in the fleet. I really think this technology is the wave of the future.”

The reduction of these harmful pollutants is like a breath of fresh air for residents who live around the Rinker Materials Buffalo quarry. Rinker also recently installed a DC-100 on their 3412 Caterpillar generator.

“I believe in this system, said Kent Partridge, heavy equipment superintendent for Rinker Materials. “A product that provides major economic benefit as well as pollution reduction is almost too good to be true.”

“As our valley continues to burst at the seams, we are faced with the great task of maintaining a clean environment in a limited area,” said Ron Smolinski, project manager for the Department of Air Quality Management “pollutants such as NOx and VOCs’ must be dealt with. It’s great to see companies taking a proactive approach to air quality improvement.”

Founded in 2000, Emissions Technology, Inc. manufactures cutting edge, easy to install, patent-pending emissions control products for diesel engines. For more information, visit www.emissionstech.com or call (702) 860-8121.

Water Treatment System ‘Extra Line of Defence’ Against Avian Flu

(PRWEB) November 2, 2005

An innovative new water treatment system could provide the UK’s poultry farmers with an extra line of defence against the spread of avian influenza in the national flock.

The Aqualution system, developed by UK company Forum Bioscience, was originally developed to help producers reduce the incidence of food poisoning bacteria such as Campylobacter and Salmonella. But during regulatory tests required under the EU’s Biocidal Products Directive, the system demonstrated its ability to destroy the avian influenza virus where it’s present in drinking water – believed to be a possible means of transmission between birds.

“The Food Standards Agency (FSA) says Campylobacter is the single biggest cause of food-borne illness in the United Kingdom,” explains Tom Ritchie, business manager with Forum Bioscience, “so Aqualution satisfied the demand from producers for a product which could be used successfully during production.

“But the speed with which avian influenza has moved across Asia and into Europe has forced producers to consider contingency plans for their flocks, should the disease become commonplace among birds in the UK,” he points out.

“Several producers have expressed an interest in installing Aqualution as their extra line of defence. It provides them with an alternative to conventional chemicals such as chlorine or ozone, where the concentrations required can often have a harmful effect on the birds. Such treatments are also unpopular with consumers who, understandably, are becoming more ‘savvy’ about the methods employed to produce their food.

“Aqualution relies on electrolysis to generate ‘activated water’, containing a very small amount of chlorine (3-5ppm) and high concentrations of dissolved oxygen. The combination is terrifically effective against pathogens,” he stresses.

On a typical unit, drinking water will often contain pathogen counts of 100,000/ml. Once Aqualution has been installed, this reduces to 10/ml and often zero.

“Because the water stays ‘active’ up to the point of drinking, the system helps prevent spread of disease between birds,” Mr Ritchie explains. “In addition, we have fogging trials underway to look at the effectiveness of the system for controlling airborne transmissions. If successful, this could then be used inside sheds and control rooms, as well as at farm entrances for disinfecting vehicles.”

Independent testing has shown that the treated water satisfies the British Disinfectant Standard against a range of problem pathogens including Pseudomonas, E.coli and Campylobacter, as well as avian influenza and a number of other viruses.

The system can also boost end profits and animal welfare. “Extensive trial results show that for meat production, a combination of reduced bird mortality, increased growth rates and better food conversion are achieved. In layers and breeders there is also greater egg and chick yield, and litter is drier – easing consumer concerns about ‘hock burn’.”

Revolutionary Ozone-Based Cleaning System Now Available in the UK

 

(PRWEB) January 22, 2006

For the first time in the UK, a revolutionary new cleaning system that utilises ozone is now available. It is called ‘Continuous Flow Recycling’ (CFR) and originates from the USA.

The system resembles an ordinary carpet shampoo machine, but instead of detergent or other potentially toxic chemicals, it uses an ozone solution as its cleaning agent. The ozone is generated using ultraviolet light within the unit. It is dissolved into the water and this solution is then forced onto the surface being cleaned at high pressure, then vacuumed back into the machine. It is this closed recycling design and operation of the CFR system that allows the safe and effective use of ozone in the cleaning and maintenance of carpets and other surfaces.

Ozone is used rather than detergents or other chemicals such as chlorine because (with the exception of fluorine), it is the most powerful oxidant known to man. It is 1½ times stronger than chlorine and it leaves no toxic residue. It is therefore highly suitable for use in hospitals and nursing homes.

Indeed, in recent years, studies have been conducted to look at CFR’s efficacy in killing bacteria, particularly the deadly MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) that causes such havoc in hospitals. One such study, conducted by the University of Minnesota School of Public Health, demonstrated the disinfecting power of ozone in the CFR system against a broad spectrum of micro-organisms, reducing microbial load by 91-96%.

CFR has been made available in the UK by well established cleaning company Squeaky Clean, based in East Grinstead.

“Previously, I was using a standard detergent-based carpet cleaning system, but I wasn’t happy with the results. Then I found out about CFR. I was impressed with how little water it left behind, that it didn’t use chemicals (which is great for the environment) and, most importantly, how effective it was and the incredible results achieved,” says Michael Jennings, MD of Squeaky Clean.

“When I found out about its ability to also kill MRSA and E-coli, I was excited because no one has been able to claim this before in the UK. I plan to get this machine used in hospitals throughout the country immediately.”

Squeaky Clean is a premier cleaning company that offers the cleaning of carpets, hard-floors, mattresses, upholstery and curtains. The company, established in 1999, operates throughout the Bristol area, Wiltshire, Hampshire, Surrey, Sussex, Kent and Greater London. Squeaky Clean is known among its customer base for its professional approach and its high standards.

Ozone Laundry System Reduces Costs by 40 Percent

San Luis Obispo, CA (PRWEB) September 21, 2009

Research by ClearWater Tech, LLC, a leading designer and manufacturer of air and water purification technology, reveals that ozone laundering can reduce commercial laundry costs by nearly 40 percent. A recent case study of the EcoTex™ ozone laundry system compared costs to traditional laundering systems.

“Ozone laundering delivers many different types of savings – from decreased annual costs to tangible benefits for the environment,” said Cameron Tapp, president of ClearWater Tech. “Our ozone-laundering equipment increases a facility’s energy and labor efficiencies and provides a higher level of cleanliness and disinfection while lowering costs.”

The EcoTex™ Advanced Laundry Oxidation System uses the power of ozone and oxygen to enhance cleanliness and save money in commercial laundering. The research was conducted at Apple Farm Inn and Suites, a 104-room hotel located in San Luis Obispo, Calif., from late 2006 into 2007. The laundry facility at Apple Farm Inn consists of two 80-pound commercial washers.

Apple Farm Inn experienced savings of 38 percent in operational costs related to its laundry facility, which encompass water, chemical, electrical, natural gas and labor costs. The ozone system used 18 percent less water and shortened each cycle by 11 minutes. Additionally, 27 percent less hot water was used per cycle. With a shorter wash cycle, less detergent used and faster drying time, sheets and towels are softer and cleaner after laundering and have a longer life.

“With the cost savings Apple Farm Inn experienced, the ozone laundering system at paid for itself in less than eight months,” said Tapp. The savings extend beyond the four walls of the hotel laundry room – using less water, electricity, chemicals and natural gas also benefits the environment. Furthermore, ozone laundering positively impacts the work atmosphere, producing a cooler and better-smelling laundry facility as well as lower potential for mold and mildew growth in and around the washers.
