Citect is offering the opportunity to work with its complete new Scada v5.5 suite for free.

The free software has a run time limited to 15min, but users can start developing Scada projects now with the full Citect Scada v5.5 issue software pack that also includes over 100 free drivers and much more.

The CD also includes latest issue Scada/HMI example project, comprehensive technical overviews, Citect white papers, Citect training and WIN911 alarm notification software.

CitectScada is an extremely fast, ready to use system with all features, protocols and over 100 drivers included.

It offers ultimate flexibility to handle the smallest to the largest tasks (450,000 I/O +) across all industry types - process, manufacturing, mining, petrochemical, aerospace, oil and gas, water treatment, power distribution (etc) - while maintaining the highest performance and reliability to safeguard production.

The ideal tool to improve productivity, CitectScada is designed with DCS style multilevel redundancy, which is easy to configure and can be incorporated at all levels.

The significance of this for the user is the ability to tolerate hardware failure anywhere in a system, with no loss of functionality, performance, communication or system reliability.

At the same time as safeguarding production, CitectScada also helps to maintain and improve manufacturing excellence.

The package is a vital tool for analysing and ensuring the quality of manufactured products using such high level functions as statistical process control (SPC) and advanced statistical alarms that enable plant personnel to predict and limit deviations of process parameters before they occur.

The task of competing in highly competitive global markets is also made easier through the deployment of a centralised CitectScada system.

The enhanced control of operations the system provides enables users to significantly reduce their operating and maintenance costs.

In addition, fewer personnel are required to monitor field equipment in remote locations, resulting in increased operator effectiveness, improved efficiency and savings in operational costs.

In today's fast moving business environment CitectScada equips users against the costly effects of changing market demands, courtesy of a flexible and scaleable architecture that adapts and grows effortlessly.

This provides the power to resize a system - up or down - without having to modify any of the system hardware or software.

As a result, system architectures grow to meet changing user requirements, while preserving initial capital investments.

The case for employing CitectScada as a business improver is further strengthened by the ability of the package to integrate easily with existing business systems.

The key to this integration is Citect Plant2Business, an easy-to-use platform that allows data to be shared.

In addition, Citect's Industrial Information Management (IIM) analysis applications allow real-time information to be aggregated and presented, improving decision-making processes and significantly increasing business performance.

Ensuring that any investment in CitectScada is both safe and secure is a dedicated team of experts, Citect Professional Services (CPS), that provide professional services, customer support and training.

CPS is made up of highly specialised engineers, all of which offer the best integration services to meet user requirements.

These engineers work strategically with Citect's impressive global network of over 500 sales and integration partner companies to provide leading edge industrial automation and information management solutions.

In addition, highly experienced technical support staff provide users of Citect products with the most up-to-date, quality support and services.

Although new to the UK market, CitectScada is already the HMI/Scada manufacturing automation system of choice for many successful global manufacturers.

These include Alcoa, General Motors, NASA, Urenco, Baoshan Steel, BHP Billiton, Pratt and Whitney, BP Solar, WMC Resources, BMW, Nestle, Mars Confectionery and Shell Oil, to name but a few.
