Unlike Foundation Fieldbus, enabling AMS


on an operating refinery is not automatic
for 4-20mA HART based instrumentation.
A number of steps have to be manually
completed correctly for each analog point
to prevent unwanted process upsets. The
preferred time to activate AMS is on a turn
around. However modern turnaround
cycles can be up to eight years, therefore
in order to reap the benefits of AMS,
refiners need to enable AMS while the unit
is in operation. This paper will cover some
of the issues, benefits, and unexpected
results that can occur when enabling AMS Emerson Process

Gas Chromatograph (GC) is used to


measure gas composition of natural gas.
The result is used as input for other
calculations such as calorific value (CV),
density, compressibility etc. As gas is
traded based on its CV, its accuracy
becomes critical. GC is a repeatable
device, however there are issues
associated with it. If the valve timing
setting is wrong, it can give systematic
error. Valve timing can also drift, and this
will also affect measurement. A live test

achieved by using DI & DO type of

Polyurethane foam is a porous plastic


material formed by the aggregation of
bubbles. It is formed by a chemical
reaction of two components, although their
formulation needs multiple variants and
additives. This reaction releases carbon
dioxide gas to form bubbles.
The foam is manufactured in a continuous
process using a machine called nozzle,
which is basically union of several
machines. The first machine is a mixer
which provides and mixes a variety of
chemicals that will react to form the foam.
These chemicals are stored far from the
mixer and must be pumped through a
series of pipes connecting the storage
tanks to the mixer. DeltaV is controlling the
whole process.
As previously mentioned, is a continuous
process which involves frequent and online
changes from one type of foam to another,
with no production stop. The combination
of different chemicals and pump
efficiencies results in a delay to reach
steady state every time the type of foam is
changed., This can frequently result in
unacceptable quality and characteristics of
the foam, and, thus, wasted production.
Everyday results in significant wasted

Polyurethane foam is a porous plastic


material formed by the aggregation of
bubbles. It is formed by a chemical
reaction of two components, although their
formulation needs multiple variants and
additives. This reaction releases carbon
dioxide gas to form bubbles.
The foam is manufactured in a continuous
process using a machine called nozzle,
which is basically union of several
machines. The first machine is a mixer
which provides and mixes a variety of
chemicals that will react to form the foam.
These chemicals are stored far from the
mixer and must be pumped through a
series of pipes connecting the storage
tanks to the mixer. DeltaV is controlling the
whole process.
As previously mentioned, is a continuous
process which involves frequent and online
changes from one type of foam to another,
with no production stop. The combination
of different chemicals and pump
efficiencies results in a delay to reach
steady state every time the type of foam is
changed., This can frequently result in
unacceptable quality and characteristics of
the foam, and, thus, wasted production.
