Topic:

Hybrid Control Systems - Explained

With industry standardization and advances in industrial data communications, the hybrid system has taken the best of PLC and DCS technologies by combining analog process control, logic control, sequence control, batch programming, and data management all in a single integrated system.

Using the best of both worlds, process engineers now have the tools to design, implement, document, and maintain a process control system using advanced control strategies that are required in many of the key industries like: power generation and electrical distribution, food and beverage, chemicals and petrochemicals, water and waste water, oil and gas pipelines.

In this presentation, Felix Widmer will provide an overview of the Hybrid Control System covering area's such as: 

• Defining a “deterministic” control system is and why it’s important
• Ways to determine when a hybrid system is most appropriate
• Differences in hardware and software between hybrid systems, PLC's and DCS systems
• Trends that highlight what the future will hold for PLC, DCS and hybrid control systems
