Emerson has launched a new software application, DeltaV Live Enterprise View, to securely extend real-time control system visualization beyond the control room.
The new release joins Emerson’s rapidly expanding edge application ecosystem and empowers engineering, maintenance, reliability and leadership teams with browser-based, read-only access to live plant displays – as operators see them – without requiring display conversion, additional engineering or changes to the control system.
The ability to take fast, decisive action in today’s volatile markets is a critical enabler of operational excellence. However, layered solutions without native integration introduce latency and ongoing engineering overhead, constraining enterprise productivity. DeltaV Live Enterprise View addresses this challenge by leveraging Emerson’s innovative edge capabilities to deliver DeltaV Live displays via secure, read-only browser access available to users from any location within the network with a viable internet connection.
“DeltaV Live Enterprise View is an ideal fit for organizations leveraging the DeltaV Edge Environment as a secure OT-to-IT data platform,” said Sean Saul, vice president of product for Emerson’s process systems and solutions business.
“As one of several high-value applications available in a rapidly expanding DeltaV Edge Marketplace, DeltaV Live Enterprise View builds on Emerson’s enterprise operations platform and boundless automation vision by delivering operator-grade, real-time control system visualization to relevant operations personnel through a standard web browser – strengthening collaboration to improve operational performance.”
Most enterprise visualization solutions require duplication, transformation or redesign of graphics. In contrast, DeltaV Live Enterprise View automatically renders graphics as they are configured in DeltaV Live, delivering instant, visible, role-based value. Enterprise users see what operators see, customized to their own needs, lowering friction and speeding adoption.
DeltaV Live Enterprise View’s secure, read-only visibility of operations is delivered via unidirectional data flow through the DeltaV Edge Environment. The DeltaV Edge Environment provides secure access to fully contextualized DeltaV data while maintaining proper system boundaries.
DeltaV Live Enterprise View joins an existing marketplace of powerful applications available at the edge including DeltaV Edge Explorer, DeltaV Agent.Connect and a wide variety of curated open-source applications such as Grafana, Jupyter Notebook and Node-RED. The applications empower users to drive enterprise-wide optimization via advanced analytics, AI assistance, customizable dashboards, trending, alarm analysis, workflow automation and batch investigation.
