SMAR is recognized as one of the global leaders in control and instrumentation for
process and manufacturing automation. The corporation has pioneered many of today’s
advanced digital field instruments and control network technologies.
SMAR’s SYSTEM302 has gained prominence as a “best-in-class” industrial automation
solution in installations around the world. In addition, our complete system capabilities
include one of the industry’s widest selections of field devices, interfaces, integrated
circuits and software.
With SYSTEM302, Control Distribution, System Configuration, Asset Management,
Network Management and System Documentation are all available in one, easy-to-use,
integrated control system. Interoperable with all major network protocols, SYSTEM302
simplifies your automation decisions. This open, scalable solution is designed to protect
your installed assets and co-exist with any legacy system.
SYSTEM302 provides competitive advantage with an open and safe digital platform,
as well as operational excellence standards working to improve your plant’s
performance.
Business solution
SYSTEM302, through its transparent integration with advanced information systems
such as MES (Manufacturing Execution System), PIMS (Process Information
Management System) and ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning), transforms advanced
field data into business intelligence. This automation structure, hierarchically well
positioned to the enterprise, enables the connection of many different data sources – including commercial, supply chain and production. Business portals with production
performance identification and tracking, such as KPI (Key Performance Indicator) and
OEE (Overall Equipment Effectiveness), may also be built-in. The information is netenabled
in a versatile and safe way to support wireless devices or Internet services.
Scalability
In a highly competitive environment, industrial operations must respond quickly to
changing market conditions. Companies may need to increase their production capacity,
change their line of products or adapt to new customer demands. SYSTEM302’s flexibility
and expansion capacity enables users to reconfigure and expand their systems according
to market conditions without the need for major investments. As a result, your valuable
resources can be used in a more productive and intelligent way.
Proficiency in field networks
Take advantage of SMAR’s experience in process control and our state-of-the-art
field networking products. Our know-how has made us experts in countless types of
automation applications, with ensured safety and additional facilities for our clients
and partners. As Fieldbus network pioneers with thousands of systems installed
worldwide, we strive to make our technological skills available to meet your unique
requirements.
Simplified engineering
The entire SYSTEM302 architecture focuses on the convergence of automation and
information technologies. The result is a robust, safe and integrated technology. Full
collaboration in a multi-user environment facilitates and reduces the time required
for project planning, desigh and execution.
In order to make the engineering process more efficient, SYSTEM302 offers a large
template library for equipment and control strategies. In addition, users may perform
both interlocking and continuous control in the same environment thanks to the
powerful resources of the DFI302 control platform.
Intelligent asset management
SYSTEM302 centralizes the management of processes, equipment and devices.
Digital communication and data mining facilitate plant information handling and allow
data to be stored in a single database. Therefore, essential information is available
anywhere in the company, at any time it is needed, through workstations with userfriendly
interfaces. SYSTEM302 offers optimal conditions so that user decisions are
made with greater confidence.
Total connectivity
As SYSTEM302 has an Ethernet-based infrastructure, it can employ non-proprietary,
standard communication protocols such as HSE (High Speed Ethernet). Connectivity
with the Internet/Intranet supports the complete management of units from a central
control room, regardless of whether they are in a local network¸ throughout a region or
around the world. In addition, SYSTEM302’s comprehensive and fully digital platform
supports both conventional technologies and global-standard fieldbus protocols such as:
FOUNDATION fieldbus, HART, AS-Interface (AS-i), DeviceNet, MODBUS, PROFIBUS-DP
and PROFIBUS-PA.
