Emerson Process Management’s DeltaV VerticalPlus I/O carriers extend the benefits of DeltaV vertical I/O to DeltaV SIS, providing flexible installation, increased I/O density, and better thermal management for both DeltaV and DeltaV SIS applications.
The vertical carrier orientation reduces cost of ownership through lower installation, maintenance, and energy costs. Vertical I/O is easier to install and maintain because cables coming from the bottom of cabinets can be fanned out and terminated without multiple wire bends. This is consistent with current practices of delivering cables through the bottom of cabinets, especially in locations that have raised floors. Overall airconditioned cabinet footprint is reduced with vertical I/O and it provides better thermal management and improved airflow in cabinets due to the vertical orientation of cards.
The redesigned vertical carrier supports simplex and redundant DeltaV SIS modules that communicate via a redundant safety bus, which is separate from the basic process control system (BPCS) communications. VerticalPlus carriers can also communicate secure SIS data via redundant SISNet repeaters to other DeltaV SIS nodes on vertical and horizontal carriers.
A T-type DIN rail is all users need to mount the power/controller carrier and enable separate bussed field power for each individual card. The system’s modular design approach allows for additional I/O carriers as needed.
DeltaV digital automation systems are a core component of Emerson’s open standards-based PlantWeb digital plant architecture which substantially reduces project costs, with customers typically saving over 30% on installed costs.
