Emerson DeltaV Distributed Control System MX Controller

INTRODUCTION

The MX controller provides communication and control between ffeld devices and other nodes on the control network.

Control strategies and system configurations created on earlier DeltaV™ systems can be used in this powerful controller.

The MX controller has all the features and functionality of the MD Plus controller, but twice the capacity.

The control language implemented in the controller is described in the Control Software Suite product data sheet.

Advantages

Right-Sized Controller

The MX controllers complement the MQ controllers by providing a larger capacity controller for applications requiring greater control capability:

2 X control capacity

2 X user configurable memory

2 X DST counts

DeltaV™ MX controllers and DeltaV I/O subsystems are easy and quick to install.

Post change. You can easily upgrade an MQ controller to an MX to handle project scope changes later in the project

The MX has the same installed footprint as an MQ controller, but twice the performance. Simply replace the MQ with the MX, and then

All existing configurations, documentation, and hardware design remain intact.

Redundant Architecture: MX controllers support 1:1 redundancy for increased availability.

Existing MD/MD Plus or MQ controllers are upgradable and powerful online
