Emerson's Smart Plant Wireless Solution
Scalable
Emerson can provide a wireless network solution that exactly
meets your needs today, while providing flexibility for future
wireless mesh infrastructure growth as your needs expand.
Emerson's Smart Wireless Plant Solutions can also scale to the
types of applications you utilize in your wireless plant. For
example, each Wi-Fi mesh node installed to backhaul
WirelessHART
®
data can also be used as a "hot spot" for your
mobile workers to access live plant data, to wirelessly stream
video data, or track personnel with Wi-Fi RFID tags.
Reduced cost
When compared to the cost of engineering and trenching or
pulling a fiber optic cable to each of the WirelessHART gateways,
a fully integrated wireless backhaul solution can be deployed for
less cost when the field network is separated from the control
room by large distances, difficult terrain, or bodies of water.
Safer deployment
Trenching or pulling a fiber optic cable in a live process area puts
workers in the process area for long periods of time - exposing
them to potential hazards and risking disruptions to process
operations.
Secure and reliable communications
All communications on the wireless plant network are fully
secure using AES 128-bit encryption. The integrity of the
wireless communication network is continuously monitored and
alerts can be sent to administrators if degradation of the
wireless signal is detected.
Wi-Fi defense-in-depth provided by Cisco's wireless Intrusion
Prevention solution secures the Wi-Fi network from hackers,
eavesdroppers, and ensures only authorized personnel have
access to the resources they need.
Wireless engineering services
Wireless engineering services are critical to the success of a
wireless plant network deployment. Emerson offers a
comprehensive services portfolio to help you design and deploy
a Wireless solution.
Site assessment (wireless FEED)
A site assessment is not needed for the WirelessHART field
instrumentation network, but one will be required for the Wi-Fi
network communications equipment being installed to provide
good Wi-Fi coverage for the desired plant area.
For the Wi-Fi wireless FEED, Emerson engineers visit your plant
site to conduct a Radio Frequency (RF) study, determine access
point locations and collect other on-site information.
Network design and planning
Based on the site survey results and your control system
requirements, Emerson engineers design the overall wireless
mesh architecture including the detailed network
infrastructure, network monitoring tools, and integrated
security.
Physical network installation
management
Engineers work with you to install the wireless mesh network
equipment based on the detailed network design.
System commissioning
The wireless mesh network is brought online and commissioned
onsite. Complete site acceptance testing is performed with your
engineers.
Training
Emerson will work with you to specify a training curriculum that
meets your specific needs.
Support
Emerson delivers SureService
®
wireless life-cycle services
through our engineering centers and global service
organizations. Emerson's wireless life cycle services are designed
to help you maintain system uptime, apply wireless technology
for better business results and preserve your intellectual and
capital investment.
