We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Plantweb",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Software keeps track of process problems from
Emerson Process Management - Power + Water, which we summarised at the time by saying "More than 80 standard process measures continuously analyse each control loop within a unit through real-time moving window analysis and condition-based
assessments".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Level transmitter is optimised for open channels from
Mobrey Measurement: "Ultrasonic level transmitter is ideal for helping water and industrial processing sites comply with MCERTS legislation".
In October 2007, we covered the news from Mobrey Measurement
concerning its MSP noncontacting ultrasonic level transmitters
- take a look at Level sensors receive software upgrade
which says: "Upgraded software for Mobrey MSP noncontacting ultrasonic level transmitters improves false echo detection".
Take a look also at the news release from Pepperl+Fuchs GB, Company signs offshore automation contract,
as well as US $27 million power plant contract signed from Emerson Process Management,
and Vibration monitor works quickly from Emerson Process Management.
