Rockwell Automation Releases New DCS Migration White Papers

05 July 2013

Many process facilities have an outdated Distributed Control System (DCS) currently in place. As a DCS reaches the end of its useful life, migration to a new automation system is required.

Three new white papers from Rockwell Automation, 'Justification for Migration', 'DCS Migration Strategy and Implementation', and 'Automation System Optimisation', examine the different financial, strategic and optimisation advantages associated with migration, and address valuable plant inquiries that usually accompany the topic. The three papers focus on different steps within the migration process and give detailed insights into migration.


Justification for Migration examines how to accurately analyse the total cost of ownership for continued operation on an outdated DCS and how to justify the benefits of replacing it.


DCS Migration Strategy and Implementation shares strategies for upgrading an existing legacy DCS to a new automation system, and focuses on how to implement the chosen strategies while maximising uptime, and minimising cost and risk.

 

Automation System Optimisation examines the specific ways in which a new automation system can deliver superior performance as compared to a typical legacy DCS.
