Harmonas-DEO is a next-generation operation monitoring and control system that serves as the nerve center for data-driven smart factories in the age of IoT.
Through links to Azbil's proprietary online malfunction-prediction system, which makes use of AI (artificial intelligence), and to a system for utilizing monitoring and diagnostic data from individual smart devices, Harmonas-DEO provides data-based monitoring.
In addition, the enhanced operability and visibility of the human-machine interface (HMI) during operation monitoring promotes safer and more reliable operation.
Features- DCS HCI (human-centered interface)
- Promote prompt situational awareness and swift comprehension and decision-making, and also provide guidance for correct operation: that is the concept behind the “human-centered interface” of Azbil's DCS.
- Window-Set Call-up (for standardized operation views)
- Combinations of windows required for operation or monitoring can be registered and called up as sets.
- This eliminates differences between operators' views caused by differences in the screens that are displayed.
- Multi-Information Window (preventing accidental oversights)
- Windows are laid out in divided panes. Since information cannot be missed due to overlapping windows, this feature contributes to safe operation.
- Easy Engineering Tool
- The function design tool RTC makes design, maintenance, and modification of the control system easy.
- This tool provides extensive online help, graphics-based process control design, operation checks using smart simulation, and remote engineering (Real Time CoSEE1).
- Highly Reliable Triple-Redundant DOPC IV Controller
- Three CPUs (2-out-of-3 logic)
- Three constantly synchronized CPUs perform calculations which are compared before outputting the results, resulting in improved reliability.
- Seamless backup
- Unlike standby redundancy systems, there is no delay or wait time when switching from primary to standby unit.
- As a result, the system provides peace of mind for processes with fast responses and processes where safety is paramount.
- Online maintenance - In addition to redundancy, all modules can be hot-swapped, allowing maintenance without interrupting plant operation.
- Certified ISASecure - EDSA 2010.1 Level 1 certified.
