KEY BENEFITS OF INTEMAR v2.0 INTEGRATED AUTOMATION SYSTEM
-
COST OPTIMISATION
By utilizing Siemens TIA Portal development framework and simulation tools, time to market is significantly improved decreasing costs and waiting time for the customers. Time saved on engineering and commissioning is significant compared to traditional systems.
-
LONG TERM AVAILABILITY OF SPARE PARTS
Since the system is equipped with well-established Siemens devices through various industries, the long-term availability of spare parts is insured in a long run.
-
USER-FRIENDLY OPERATOR INTERFACE
WINCC based HMI / SCADA software allows tailor-made mimic diagrams to be designed in such a way as to produce the best possible experience for the end-user.
-
CRITICAL INFORMATION IN REAL-TIME
Intemar v2.0 automation system is designed for demanding, deterministic exchange and display of time-critical process data, by utilizing PROFINET real-time communication protocol. In this way, end-user reaction time is significantly reduced.
-
OPENNESS
It offers a high level of openness towards other ship systems and capability for integration with various ship systems since it is designed for connectivity using standardized industry protocols employed by the most recognized automation brands in the world.
-
SAFETY
Depending upon the safety requirements of certain ship systems, Intemar v2.0 meets the fail to safety principle of operation. It supports fail-safe modules for digital inputs and outputs and PROFISAFE communication protocol with functional safety certified in accordance with IEC 61508.
-
HIGH AVAILABILITY AND SYSTEM REDUNDANCY
Profinet based ethernet ring assures system redundancy and cable redundancy, thus forming a reliable automation system. System redundancy is achieved by duplicating the main PLC controller and using redundant SCADA application, while cable redundancy by using high-speed ethernet ring based on PROFINET industrial communication protocol.
VARIOUS POSSIBLE TOPOLOGIES
FEATURES
-
HIGH PERFORMANCE DATA REPRESENTATION
Visualisation software has been developed with idea of user-frendly data representation achieved by utilising industry best practices in terms of labeling information, coloring patterns, font sizes providing emphasis on presenting time-critical information in an easily readable way.
-
MULTITOUCH OPERATOR STATIONS
Allowing the user to control ships systems in touch mode.
-
HIGH AVAILABILITY
Profinet based ethernet ring assures system redundancy and cable redundancy, thus forming a reliable automation system
-
HTML 5 BASED BROWSER INTEGRATED
Web browser feature gives the operator possibility to control their plants via web technologies.
-
ANALOG DATA DISPLAY IN TREND CONTROL
Analog data points can be represented in the shape of a line graph. Continuous data is represented in this manner, for diagnostic and analysis purposes.
-
SYSTEM HEALTH MONITORING WITH SELF-DIAGNOSTIC SOFTWARE PACKAGE
Intemar v2.0 automation system is capable of self-diagnostics. Since the system is designed in such a way, it is possible to diagnose and alarm upon failure of one component thus providing the person in charge with on-time and accurate information about the system’s health.
-
COMMON INDUSTRY COMPONENTS
Automation system utilizes access to a large library of marine industry standardized components, functionalities to meet different needs and requirements. In the case where nonstandardized automation, protection, and monitoring function are required, we provide the possibility of developing tailor-made solutions for a particular application.
-
EXTENDED ALARM SYSTEM (ESS) AND DUTY PANELS (DP)
In cases when it is necessary to monitor the situation in the conditions of an unattended engine room, the Intemar v2.0 automation system is supplied with the EAS V2.0 extension. The Extended Alarm System consists of the ECS “Engineers call system” and the ESS “Engineer safety system”.
-
POWER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM INTEGRATION
Monitoring and control of the entire PMS system from the ship's automation system, possible in a fully integrated solution.
-
TANK SOUNDING
Intemar v2.0 automation system is designed with software algorithms and hardware components for precise monitoring of filling levels in tanks onboard vessels. Since there are mediums in tanks of different densities and chemical ingredients, appropriate care has been taken to assure that the right sensor for a particular application is used. The sensors used are usually based upon the principle of hydrostatic pressures, but different kinds of sensors (for example radar sensors) can be used depending upon application requirements.
-
LOGGING AND TRENDING
The operator has the possibility to choose and log certain tags for later analysis and export of logged data in CSV format.
-
REPORTING
As part of the analytical features of the system, reporting empowers the operator to get important information about working hours, fuel consumption, and on-demand industry-specific metrics in PDF or paper format.
-
SECURE REMOTE ACCESS
Display and evaluation of current process states and/or historical data is provided when the automation system is equipped with a remote access module via the Intranet/Internet. Remote access assures awareness of your operational expenses and maintenance scheduling through insights delivered through remote office or cloud to the vessel Owner.
-
REDUNDANT PC SERVERS
When application and rules require, operator station redundancy is achieved by utilizing two or more server PCs, which makes them fully autonomous.
-
REDUNDANT MAIN CONTROLLERS
When the application requires high availability, for example in safety systems or alarm and monitoring components of the system, PLC controllers are delivered in a redundant design. When failure of master PLC controller is recognized by the system in a self-diagnosis manner, failover to backup PLC is fast and automatic. Synchronization upon recovery of the previously broken CPU is done automatically.
-
RING NETWORK TOPOLOGY
Profinet based ethernet ring assures system redundancy and cable redundancy, thus forming a reliable automation system.
