Emerson releases remote terminal unit

Published

Emerson Process Management has introduced OpenEnterprise Field Tools. The remote terminal unit (RTU) and Highway Addressable Remote Transducer (HART) configuration suite enables local and remote configuration and real-time HART device monitoring in remote oil and gas applications, such as wellhead automation, flow measurement, and tank overflow protection.

The software suite can streamline the servicing and maintenance of multiple RTU platforms and HART transmitters across remote sites, helping improve operations and field personnel safety.

The new single software toolkit enables the configuration of Emerson’s family of remote terminal units, flow computers and presets including products under the ROC, FloBoss and ControlWave brands.

Additionally, OpenEnterprise Field Tools is a fully-functional HART communicator that supports configuration, troubleshooting and maintenance of all wired HART and WirelessHART transmitters. Field Tools enables the commissioning of HART devices by leveraging HART pass-through via Emerson RTUs and flow computers. HART pass-through enables tunneling over SCADA infrastructures using native Emerson RTU communication protocols.

Whether connected locally onsite (via serial connection) or remotely (over IP connection), all HART devices are within reach. Devices that require field personnel attention are highlighted based on HART parameters such as battery voltage, device status and device diagnostics.

Field Tools supports live-mode monitoring of all HART devices connected to an Emerson RTU or flow computer and is a universal software that supports HART devices released by the HART Foundation, Emerson and third party manufacturers.
