Older PSA plants were often installed without troubleshooting capabilities, primitive PLC hardware and substantially less-robust switching valve technology than is available today. Many older plants can be revamped with new automation systems to increase their performance and reliability. With our substantial in-house automation engineering team, Lummus Technology can design, install and commission a new control system for your existing PSA plant. Examples of features that can be retrofitted with minimal modification to existing piping systems are:
- Full valve position feedback via HART or dedicated transmitters
- Automatic fault detection and alarming logic
- Automatic start and stop
- Modern HMI systems
- Complete SCADA facilities dedicated to the PSA plant
