基金會現(xiàn)場總線將被用在此智能工廠中的智能設備布線中。 2008年5月27日消息，艾默生過程管理公司已經(jīng)被浙江昌興（音）玻璃有限公司的浙江平湖（音）玻璃廠選中，為其施工并安裝配有DeltaV自動化系統(tǒng)的數(shù)字化架構和艾默生智能現(xiàn)場設備。該項目將是中國玻璃行業(yè)中第一個應用基金會現(xiàn)場總線的plantweb項目。 PlantWeb架構的核心部件：艾默生DeltaV數(shù)字自動化系統(tǒng)，將為玻璃廠許多配有高級自動化技術的智能操作提供動力。除節(jié)能安裝外，配有基金會現(xiàn)場總線的PlantWeb架構，通過數(shù)字化可靠性、功能性、高精密量度和來自智能現(xiàn)場設備的高級診斷，有望提高產(chǎn)品產(chǎn)量和質量。 浙江昌興玻璃廠將為新廠投入8億人民幣，于2008年3月開始工作。該廠制定了每天450噸的產(chǎn)量以滿足中國日益增長的建筑需求。浙江平湖預計每天生產(chǎn)500噸超薄玻璃，從2008年6月開始，總投資為6億人民幣。超薄玻璃將用于發(fā)光二極管和其它電子應用。 浙江昌興項目經(jīng)理Yang Kuang說：“我們之所以選擇艾默生作為我們主要的儀器提供商，是因為其高優(yōu)勢的現(xiàn)場總線技術、高質量產(chǎn)品和艾默生高級的技術整合能力。除項目和試運行優(yōu)勢外，我們期望數(shù)字自動化能帶給我們可持續(xù)的操作和維護優(yōu)勢?！? 除每個廠安裝DeltaV自動化系統(tǒng)之外，艾默生將提供智能Rosemount溫度和壓力傳送器、安裝現(xiàn)場總線數(shù)字閥控制器上的Fisher控制閥和其AMS組件預測維護軟件。 由現(xiàn)場儀器采集的診斷數(shù)據(jù)通過AMS設備管理器存儲在現(xiàn)場總線網(wǎng)絡中，該網(wǎng)絡能夠持續(xù)提供一個完整的設備數(shù)據(jù)庫和過程信息，形成圖表式信息以備維護和操作人員使用，與現(xiàn)場設備自動形成文件交互信息。該軟件在儀表試運轉過程中是非常有用的，利用該軟件意味著可與現(xiàn)場儀器溝通交流，技術員們現(xiàn)在所花費的時間要比傳統(tǒng)步驟所花費時間少三分之二。超出試運轉之外，AMS設備管理器的預診斷功能將提高工廠的實用性和性能。 艾默生過程管理公司（亞太地區(qū)）總裁Mike Train評論說：“我們很高興我們的高級技術，卓越的工程和整合能力能用在中國，參與這些里程碑式的項目，鞏固我們的聲譽，加強我們的選擇。我們將繼續(xù)向我們在中國服務的其它項目一樣傳送我們相同的制造優(yōu)勢。” [FONT=times] original text [/FONT] [font=times][Color=#708090]FOUNDATION Fieldbus will network intelligent devices throughout the smart plants AUSTIN, TEXAS （May 27, 2008） - Emerson Process Management has been selected by the Zhejiang Changxing Glass Co., Ltd. and the Zhejiang Pinghu Glass Co., Ltd. to engineer and install PlantWeb® digital architecture with DeltaV™automation systems and Emerson‘s intelligent field devices in new glass plants in the Zhejiang Province. The projects will be the first for plantwide use of FOUNDATION fieldbus in China‘s glass industry. A core component of PlantWeb architecture, Emerson‘s DeltaV™ digital automation systems will power the Smart Plant operation with the most advanced automation technology in the glass industry. In addition to installation savings, the PlantWeb architecture with FOUNDATION fieldbus is expected to improve product output and quality through digital reliability and functionality, highly accurate measurements, and advanced diagnostics from the intelligent field devices. Zhejiang Changxing Glass is investing RMB800 million （$115 million USD） in its new plant, which went into operation in March, 2008. This plant has a designed capacity of 450 tons per day of float glass to meet the rising demand for building materials created by China‘s ongoing construction boom. The Zhejiang Pinghu plant is expected to produce 500 tons of ultra-thin glass per day, starting in June 2008, from a total investment of RMB600 million （$86 million USD）. Ultra-thin glass is used for LEDs and other electronics applications "Emerson was chosen as our main instrument supplier to take advantage of its advanced fieldbus technology, high quality products, and the excellent integration capabilities of Emerson‘s technical personnel," according to Zhejiang Changxing Project Manager Yang Kuang. "In addition to project and commissioning advantages, we expect digital automation to give us sustained operations and maintenance advantages." In addition to the DeltaV automation systems for each plant, Emerson is supplying smart Rosemount® temperature and pressure transmitters, Fisher® control valves equipped with FIELDVUE® digital valve controllers, and its AMS® Suite predictive maintenance software. Diagnostic data produced by the smart field instruments is accessed over the fieldbus networks by AMS Device Manager which maintains a complete device database, processes acquired information, presents it in graphical format for use by both maintenance and operating personnel, and automatically documents interaction with field devices. This software will be useful during instrument commissioning. Using it as a means of communicating with the field instruments, technicians will spend as much as two-thirds less time for commissioning than with time-consuming conventional procedures. Beyond commissioning, AMS Device Manager‘s predictive diagnostics will improve plant availability and performance. "We are pleased that our advanced technologies, excellent engineering and integration capabilities in China, and reputation for post-sales support enabled our selection to participate in these landmark projects," commented Mike Train, president of Emerson Process Management Asia Pacific. "We are committed to delivering the same process manufacturing advantages to these customers as we have done in our many installations in China."[/color][/font]
