Platforms combine to monitor field devices

A Yokogawa product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team Feb 28, 2006

Through open standards, two platforms exchange status and diagnostic data, allowing users to monitor and manage the condition of a broader cross-section of plant assets.

Yokogawa Electric has demonstrated a working integration with GE Energy's System 1 software.

Yokogawa's PRM plant resource management system provides a framework for monitoring and diagnosing the health of field devices, such as process sensors and valves.

GE Energy's System 1 platform provides similar functionality for the mechanical and thermodynamic health of rotating, reciprocating and fixed machinery.

Through the use of open standards, the two platforms can exchange status and diagnostic data, allowing users to monitor and manage the condition of a broader cross-section of plant assets than by using either system individually.

Connectivity to the System 1 platform is important because it is the only software supporting the proprietary communications with GE's Bently Nevada line of vibration monitoring and machinery protection systems, used by more than 25,000 customers worldwide.

With more than 3000 global sites already using the System 1 platform, it is the leading software of its kind and lets customers more easily combine their installed machinery condition monitoring systems with Yokogawa's PRM system.
