Emerson DeltaV SD Plus Controller

Benefits

Scalable controllers. The SD Plus controller complements the SX controller by providing

a smaller controller platform at a reduced price for those small to moderate applications:

 Speed. The SD Plus controller supports all the features you’ve come to expect from the DeltaV system: 

self-addressing, automatic I/O detection. All these features are designed to make your projects execute faster—just plug and play!

 Redundant architecture. The SD Plus controller supports 1:1 redundancy for increased availability.

Redundant SD Plus controllers can be upgraded to SX controllers online—robust!

 Late Changes. You can easily upgrade an SD Plus controller to an SX to handle project

scope changes late in the project. Simply replace the SD Plus with the SX and all existing configuration,

documentation and hardware design remain the same —forgiving.

Quick Assembly. The S-Series hardware has been redesigned for speed of project execution.

Carriers snap to standard DIN rails and controllers and S-series IO snap into position without the use of retaining screws.

Easy to use.

Controllers are also easy to configure. Simply connect the SD Plus to the DeltaV network and Auto-Sense it from DeltaV Explorer.

Add the controller and all its IO interfaces to the system database and all components are automatically addressed and communicating.

There are no dip switches or jumpers to set.

 Control strategies are developed using IEC-61131 programming techniques: Function Blocks, Sequential Function Charts and Structured Text.

 Automatic diagnostic and event reporting with time stamps applied in the controller

 Set control execution to match process dynamics and controller scheduling adjusts automatically.

 Reference any parameter by its module name, regardless of its location in the system.

 Synchronized system clock for consistent time based event driven actions across the system.

 Online expandable IO carriers allow new cards to be added online, with autosense capability, for modular system growth

 Hardware redundancy is automatically detected with zero configuration effort.

Field Proven Architecture.

The S-Series controllers are an evolution of DeltaV M-Series hardware.

The new design delivers installation and robustness enhancement while still using the

same processor and OS that has proven itself in the field.

All S-series I/O cards run the latest software enhancements of corresponding

M-Series I/O cards and deliver the same field proven, reliable operation.

Designed for Digital Marshalling.

The S-Series controllers have highly distributable I/O capabilities with CHARMS based Electronic Marshalling.

Electronic Marshalling I/O can be mounted anywhere, facilitating system design and expansion

while reducing overall system footprint over traditional marshalled I/O Subsystems.

Advanced Controls.

The SD Plus controller supports all the advanced control features that are expected in a world class Digital Control System:

 Batch Software

 Model Predictive Control

 Neural Networks
