As Rockwell Automation Inc. continues to bolster its process automation
capabilities, it increasingly works with Endress+Hauser for the
instrumentation portion of the portfolio.
The companies have collaborated to develop tools
providing diagnostics and step-by-step guidance on connectivity,
configuration and commissioning of Endress+Hauser instrumentation with
Rockwell’s PlantPAx process automation system. The tools include
pre-engineered controller code, pre-configured operator faceplates and
integration documentation. All of the tools are available for the most
commonly used Endress+Hauser process instrumentation.
“We recognize the challenges faced within the industry when
integrating advanced instrumentation into a plant-wide process control
system. These new tools for device integration will help significantly
ease implementation,” said Steve Pulsifer, director of Process Market
Development, Rockwell Automation.
Todd Lucey, General Manager, Endress+Hauser added, “They also will
enable the PlantPAx system to gather and visualize previously isolated
process instrumentation diagnostics.”
