【For Chemical Plants】Eliminating Vendor Dependence with SCADA+PLC
By downsizing to SCADA + PLC, the entire system can be updated collectively in a low-cost and safe manner, even in hazardous areas, without dependence on manufacturers!
Are there any issues with updating the explosion-proof HMI for reaction control in chemical plants?
In chemical plants, particularly for system updates that include operation panels (HMI) in explosion-proof areas, coordination among multiple vendors is necessary, raising concerns about the dispersion of construction responsibilities and design inconsistencies. The situation of wanting to update but hesitating due to costs and the need to address hazardous locations may hinder the efficient operation of the plant and the introduction of the latest technologies. Our company provides solutions that balance cost reduction and flexible operations to address such challenges. We plan system replacements through engineering that includes modifications to existing panels and I/O conversions. Furthermore, by simultaneously updating explosion-proof equipment such as explosion-proof PCs and touch panels using our own product lineup, we can comprehensively renew the entire system, including hazardous areas. 【Usage Scenarios】 - Updating aging DCS systems - Simultaneous updates of HMIs including explosion-proof areas - Breaking free from manufacturer dependency and improving operational flexibility - Reducing risks associated with system updates 【Benefits of Implementation】 - Reduction in system update costs - Liberation from vendor lock-in - Comprehensive renewal of the entire system, including hazardous locations - Enhanced flexibility for customers in operation and maintenance

Applications/Examples of results
**Effects After Implementation** It becomes possible to reduce initial investment and maintenance costs by up to half. Annual maintenance contract fees are no longer necessary, significantly compressing lifecycle costs. Since modifications and expansions can be handled in-house, operational flexibility is improved. With a one-stop system that includes terminal updates in hazardous areas, an integrated system that enhances safety and reliability without relying on other companies is achieved. As a result, benefits can be enjoyed in terms of cost, safety, and maintainability.
