Controlling and monitoring of industrial pressure process using distributed control system

Abstract: At present time, most of the process industries are in the position to monitor and control many different processes in their manufacturing process at the same instant of time. Global monitoring and controlling of all the process at a same time of instance will lead to increase the process productivity and plant safety. Distributed control and centralized monitoring are the key-factors to ensure the plant safety. This paper aims to enhance the flexibility in controlling and monitoring of industrial pressure process by configuring and developing a HMI using DCS with SCADA. The field output of industrial pressure process are fetched and the parameters have been sent to the Field Control Station (FCS) where the controlling is distributed and monitoring is centralized.Hence the optimized control of different industrial process has been achieved.

Keywords: Distributed Control System (DCS), Human Machine Interface (HMI), Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) and Controller tuning.
