Honeywell Experion Mobile Access plant mobility solution

Honeywell has released Experion Mobile Access, a mobility application that provides secure remote access to Honeywell’s Experion Process Knowledge System (PKS) through mobile computing devices. Experion Mobile Access enables field operators to view and respond to live information from Experion PKS while they are on rounds or inspecting the plant.

To meet plant and field operators’ need for fast and easy access to plant data, the company has developed Experion Mobile Access, which works securely with the Experion PKS architecture and the company’s OneWireless Network. This software application provides seamless field data access for plants with complex processes and expansive footprints that rely on a large mobile operator staff for proper operations, and to support the availability of process equipment.

It is designed to help field operation teams find and avert process conditions that could affect production output. Recent cases studies have shown that an average-sized refinery or chemical plant can see up to $1 million per year in savings, a 15% improvement in mean time between failure of assets and a 10% reduction in maintenance costs.

Experion Mobile Access leverages Experion Distributed System Architecture (DSA), including Experion eServer technology to deliver data to field operators throughout the facility. Its web-based user interface has been optimised for small mobile devices, such as industrial handhelds commonly employed by workers during their field rounds, but also other devices such as smartphones and tablets.
