SYSTEM INTEGRATION

Honeywell can serve as your single vendor for all automation needs, including the DCS, PLC, SCADA, Field Device Manager for asset management, and an HMI panel – all with seamless integration and support.Coordination is easier with fewer teams and direct access to system knowledge, and auto-configuration of PLC data points in Experion Server means easy updates and faster project deployment. A single point of responsibility reduces both risk and cost with fewer coordination errors, less engineering, faster installation, less training and reduced hardware.Field Device Manager (FDM) provides fast and accurate commissioning of field devices and simplified diagnostics, resulting in fewer site trips. Combining FDM with the HART IP open standard offers design flexibility and protection of existing site investments.

Operator effectiveness is increased with a common HMI across system applications and pre-built diagnostics. Results are fewer operator and engineering stations, less hardware and wiring, reduced IT licensing and training, fewer errors, and increased efficiency and availability. You benefit from reduced cost over the lifecycle with smaller footprint and easier maintenance.

The Experion Panel PC, or Experion PPC, provides a touch user interface and consistent HMI for an operator either in the field or in the control room. Consistent displays to show ControlEdge PLC alarms, trend, diagnostics and history results in better emergency response and improved plant uptime.

 

DESIGN FLEXIBILITY

ControlEdge PLC offers a variety of I/O choices for flexibility and reduced system cost. In addition, HART enabled Universal I/O means no additional costly hardware to support HART. The first PLC to offer Universal I/O provides remote configuration and design change flexibility for improved project implementation. Universal I/O enables the entire cabinet to become a standard part, with I/O channels quickly configurable to allow modules to serve as analog or digital and as input or output. Engineers can quickly accommodate late configuration changes remotely with a simple software configuration change.ControlEdge Builder is an IEC61131-3 compliant integrated configuration tool to easily design, configure, program, and maintain your PLC investment. The same tool is used by both ControlEdge PLC and ControlEdge RTU, reducing training and maintenance cost at facilities using both products. 

CONNECTIVITY

Built on a proven and capable platform, ControlEdge PLC provides an IIoT-ready open platform that enables users to better leverage data across their assets. Use of the OPC UA protocol offers smooth integration to a broad range of instruments while providing built-in cyber security. Interoperable multi-level and multiplatform open communication provides flexible and scalable design, enabling standardization with less hardware.An IIoT-ready platform enables more direct access to cloud based applications for visualization and analytics. Direct access and reduced gateways delivers investment protection and easier maintenance, and therefore reduced cost and risk. 

CYBER SECURITY

Embedded cyber security supports compliance, reduced risk, and availability. Features include secure boot to prevent uploading of unauthorized software, a built-in firewall to reduce exposure to denial-of-service attacks and message flooding, and a certified secure development lifecycle to ensure security is built-in from the start. PLC communication is secured using IPSec to prevent man-in-the-middle attacks and unauthorized access. ControlEdge PLC supports encryption, easy configuration and certificate-based authentication.In addition, Honeywell offers world-class Industrial Cyber Security Solutions and Managed Services that help protect the availability, safety and reliability of industrial control systems and site operations.
