Supervision and control Axron HYDRObelt

Dec. 5, 2011 - PRLog -- With their intuitive graphical interface, AXRON products are easy to use. Clear functions with texts and alarms in the client’s language, facilitate familiarization. The wide opening simplifies their integration and their extensive modular system guarantees their evolution over time.

FONCTIONALITIES
Temperature controlled by PID (cascade).
Conveyor belt’s speed control.
Flexible programming with recipe library; stop-start on weekly schedule and deferred start to processing.
Management of peripherals: coolers, analyzers, vibrating mechanism and loading/unloading system control.
Calibration of the measuring instrument and sensors (AT) and calibration of the heating chamber (TUS).
Specific screens for capturing production monitoring information.
“T” models provide process value archiving (.CSV format) on detachable storage medium (USB) and on a network drive. PC software for graphic display (trend) of files generated is delivered separately.

SERVICES AND ADD-ONS
On-site electrical and mechanical integration.
On-site commissioning and training.
Risk analysis, compliance.
Thermal mapping (TUS), analysis of the reactor’s atmosphere.
Remote access, maintenance agreements.
Back-up and remote data archiving.
Optimisation and limitation of heat rating.
Full automation of the installation.
Integration with ERP/SCADA, centralisation of technical approvals and/or archive data.
Installation of Remote Viewers.
Can be connected to bar code readers.
