Why Are Vector Advanced Services Needed?
Customers are being asked to do more with less.
“A recent examination of 5000 control loops at twelve different facilities found that 50% were failing to reduce process variability.”
"No amount of advanced control which relies on the use of poor field instrumentation can be expected to yield worthwhile benefit. Thinking of control as a hierarchy, everything must work well at the lower levels for the higher levels above to work"
– M. J. OGLESBY AT ICI ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY
“Control systems personnel are using control loop monitoring and performance supervision software to generate measurable economic benefits. Today’s loop optimization software focuses on providing meaningful, actionable metrics that deliver results to the bottom line and graphical tools to focus the users’ attention on the most economically important issues, thereby helping them to focus their time and effort on the areas where they can make the biggest improvement.”
"It is important to realize that process optimization begins and ends with optimization of the entire loop. A formal loop performance audit should be used to identify and correct problems associated with loop hardware. You cannot simply treat separate parts of the loop individually and expect to achieve coordinated loop performance."
"...the maximum return on investment is severely limited if the field control loop components are not properly matched to the control room system. It has been determined that small improvements in the performance of the automatic control system (the final control element, the transmitter, and the controller) will significantly impact the profitability realized in process optimization."
