AMS MACHINE WORKS DATA COLLECTOR

Rotating Machinery and Production Assets

With the AMS Machine Works Data Collector for AMS Optics, users can monitor the health of their rotating machines and stay better informed of activities, even via mobile phone. This increased level of awareness enables users to perform exception-based analysis versus inspecting every piece of data collected, which drives increased productivity and efficiency.

AMS DEVICE MANAGER DATA COLLECTOR

Field Devices and Automation Assets

The AMS Device Manager Data Collector enables intelligent field device health to be centralized in AMS Optics. Asset health is delivered to the relevant users in a clear and meaningful way. This means you can act before a problem affects the process—resulting in poor product quality, or worse, a costly shutdown.

DELTAV™ CONTROL LOOP DATA COLLECTOR

Control Loop Performance

With the DeltaV™ Control Loop Data Collector, users are notified of unhealthy control loops enabling them to address issues proactively. This helps users recognize when a faulty measurement, defective valve, or poor tuning is getting in the way of achieving operational goals. For example, users are notified if a tuning recommendation is available that can significantly improve control. Taking corrective action reduces process variability and improves control performance that can save millions of dollars each year.

ASPEN MTELL® DATA COLLECTOR

AI, Machine Learning and Advanced Analytics

With the Aspen Mtell® Data Collector for AMS Optics, users can enhance asset reliability and performance with early warnings and real-time actionable insights, combined with closed-loop workflow capabilities. Aspen Mtell is a predictive analytics software developed by Aspen Technology, designed to optimize industrial operations by deploying “agents” that monitor asset health and performance and predict potential failures using rules and conditions, advanced first principles or AI/ML models, and custom codes created by data scientists.

Plantweb Insight Data Collector

Asset-specific Analytics, Energy and Emissions

The Plantweb Insight Data Collector brings analytics based on decades of process and industry experience into AMS Optics. AMS Optics users will have timely, actionable information about key assets such as pumps, heat exchangers, steam traps, air cooled heat exchangers, cooling towers, pressure relief valves, and others.

Enhanced OT Connectivity

Easily connect to Emerson sources as well as third-party sources through agnostic interfaces to a variety of OT platforms.

Asset Historian

To improve asset reliability, you need to be able to see the status of your critical assets and know how they’ve performed over time. AMS Optics can historize asset parameters to enable asset health diagnosis.

Unified Interface with Modern Architecture

A central location for managing connections results in improved maintainability and security and also facilitates more effective integration with external clients and development environments.

Enterprise Scalability

A flexible, modular architecture facilitates integration into existing systems, on premise or in the cloud, without significant redesign and enables routine maintenance and recovery functions to be executed without disrupting operations.

CMMS Interface

CMMS interface maps assets from AMS Optics to your CMMS, so work requests are created proactively before process upsets occur in the facility. This allows you to integrate your workflow and drive corrective actions.

Secure by Design

Emerson’s data management technologies are developed in accordance with the highest industry-recommended standards for cyber protection and data sovereignty.
