For a manufacturer of products based on bromine, Actemium installed and configured an Osisoft PI system, with integration of a Waterfall unidirectional security gateway. Also the existing 15 year old data was migrated to the PI system.
A PI system has these function:
- Collect data from all kind of systems
- Compress and Store (PI DA) and Create a data model (PI AF)
- Perform calculations for assets to enhance the data (PI AF analytics)
- Identify and capture events
- Secure data storage (use of Windows integrated security)
- Visualize and share data
- Deploy Business Intelligence (BI) and machine learning
Our activities:
- Capture raw data in the PI system on OT side
- Transmit the data via a Waterfall unidirectional security gateway to the PI system on IT side
- Create PI AF (Asset framework) templates and hierarchical site model.
- Perform analysis on the data and create event frames and notifications
- Analyze data from production machines to create reports and dashboards
Customer benefits:
- Replacement of legacy and slow historian
- Real-time monitoring of the production process
- Identical PI system on OT and IT side with a safe separation between both
- Use of templates in PI AF to reduce implementation time of tags and calculations
- Use off PI Event Frames
- With PI Vision, the users can build their own displays
- Notification when a component has issues
