A well-attended sessions at the recent ARC Industry Forum in Orlando, Florida focused on leveraging smart field systems to create value in process industries. Several presentations provided end user perspectives on employing smart sensors to improve process automation, asset management, safety, and/or physical security for industrial facilities and critical infrastructure.
ARC Advisory Group analysts provided a brief overview on leveraging smart field solutions, both wired and unwired. ARC discussed how smart connected devices relate to the emerging Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and the increasing impact made by solutions such as multiphase flow meters and leak detection systems in oil & gas operations across the world. We also covered the progress of the ISA 108 standard for intelligent device management and its potential impact on end users.
Smart Sensors – The Future of Automation
A presentation by ARC Associate, David Lafferty, President of Scientific Technical Services, outlined some examples of emerging smart sensing solutions. Mr. Lafferty discussed how smart sensors are transforming the automation world by improving sensor reliability and increasing plant performance by providing actionable information. According to Mr. Lafferty, as an enabler for IIoT, smart sensors will play an increasingly important role in process automation in the future.
