As a specialist Control System Professional, I am involved in the selection of Industrial Automation Systems for Power Plants of varying capacities.
Against our bid enquiries for Distributed Control Systems (that should have superior features with Optimisation, Hot Swapping, Integral SoE, Compliance to 'Open Architecture or with Fast Ethernet', vendors of all kinds submit their offerings.
All the Vendors claim their offering is a true DCS and 'can perform the assigned role'. It appears the following products are not truly comparable in character and functional capability.
Siemens PCS7, XPadd
ABB AC 800M
Metso DPU4F
Yokogawa CS100
Honeywell Experiod, UC900
I would be very thankful for valuable inputs from professionals on the above products justifying them as true DCS or otherwise.
Thanks and regards
