Control systems just got more maintenance-friendly

Mike Bacidore says integrated infrastructure could allow remote diagnostics and condition monitoring for asset management with fieldbus connectivity.

As industrial plants continue to extend their operations, the need for condition monitoring and remote diagnostics keeps increasing, as well. Many sites now cover thousands of acres, and some field devices might be monitoring assets that are miles away.
While many plants have begun utilizing the control-system network more often for monitoring assets, each of the devices might be running on a different system, so managing physical assets in a coordinated fashion still requires a bit of patchwork integration.
In December, the Fieldbus Foundation (www.fieldbus.org) inched that integration just a little bit more within reach when released details on its Foundation for Remote Operations Management (ROM) at Lee College’s Fieldbus Center (www.lee.edu/fieldbus) in Baytown, Texas. The initiative is designed to provide a single unified, integrated infrastructure built specifically for asset management in remote process industry applications ranging from tank farms and terminals to pipelines, offshore platforms, and OEM skids.
