Spartan Controls' OnePlant™ solution revolutionizes industrial automation by eliminating integration complexities, providing seamless access to all plant data through Emerson’s DeltaV DCS, and enhancing operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

The adoption of Industry 4.0, also known as the large-scale digitalization of industrial businesses, is rapidly changing the way industrial operations are run. This digital transformation has required significant investments from operating companies and their partners in operations technology and information technology.

Don’t let outdated operator interfaces be a barrier for your organization’s business objectives. Increasingly, we are being asked to prepare for the challenges of a changing digital workforce, remote work locations, and data portability. Empower intelligent decision-making through human-machine interface improvements while also optimizing the user experience and using technology to aggregate data before there is a demand for it. Here are some strategies to get that long overdue HMI overhaul off the ground.

After 25 years of innovation, the DeltaV control system continues to deliver new capabilities while maintaining full support for its installed base. In this article, we will review the evolution of the DeltaV controllers over the last 20 years as well as discuss how the PK controller makes use of proven in use design features found in existing DeltaV hardware. DeltaV users have continually driven the need for increased controller capacity with ever evolving requirements. In addition to CPU performance and many hardware design features, PK controllers also deliver integrated Ethernet protocols for motors and drives, as well as data servers such as OPC UA. The PK controller family is a step change in DeltaV controller capabilities, and just one of the next generation deliverables available in Version 14.
