Siemens Cemat version 7.1 process control system

Tuesday, 20 April, 2010 | Supplied by: Siemens Ltd


Siemens has equipped version 7.1 of its Cemat process control system for the cement industry and associated sectors with multiple new functions. An enhanced signalling and diagnostics concept is designed to reduce plant downtimes as well as operating and maintenance costs, thus increasing plant availability and productivity.

Cemat is based on the current version 7.1 of Simatic PCS 7 and offers all the performance features and functions of the process control system, such as APC (Advanced Process Library) and Alarm Control.

Alarm Control is a freely configurable signalling system integrated in the operator system for effective message display and processing. Interrupts can be individually filtered, for example, or they can be exported for better analysis of critical plant states.

Cemat version 7.1 now includes web-based diagnostic information for the easy transmission of maintenance data via LAN, SMS or email.

Other new functions of the Cemat version 7.1 include the listing of bypassed process signals, the display of corresponding groups and routes for all process objects and object-granular alarm acknowledgement. In addition, the faceplates and trend views have been reworked.

Another new feature is the tracking of signals and signal state values across block boundaries, which allows the operator to react quickly to potential errors. The latest Cemat version is compatible with all previous Cemat versions since version 1.8.
