Yokogawa and Pepperl+Fuchs announce the release of a solution for managing the physical layer of Foundation fieldbus H1. This is being released as one of the diagnostic solutions of Yokogawa’s Plant Resource Manager (PRM) R3.02.
A key component of Yokogawa’s VigilantPlant Asset Excellence initiative, PRM integrates and manages maintenance information, monitors online conditions, and records historical data of assets ranging from field devices to plant equipment.
The integration of the Pepperl+Fuchs Advanced Diagnostics Module (ADM) and Diagnostics Manager software into PRM R3.02 enables users to access a consolidated supervisory window within the PRM R3.02 environment.
Accordingly, customers can view summary information on individual segments that provides details on each connected field device, enabling efficient root-cause analysis in real-time and keeping plants operating smoothly.
The integration of the FieldConnex ADM interface has widened the scope of PRM’s asset management capabilities, helping operators make decisions by providing easy access to actionable information on the health of their Foundation fieldbus segments, therefore ensuring the maximum availability of the physical layer.
