Control
Arts Inc specializes in software and consulting services for refineries,
chemical plants, pulp and paper plants, and power plants.The company
focus is to provide software solutions for process control and alarm
management. Control Arts is dedicated to the research and validation
associated with providing the best solutions for plant control,
engineering and maintenance.

| Alarm
Management |
Start
engineering your alarm system with the Control Arts Process
Alarm Toolkit. All the components needed for a complete
solution - from storing the alarms to scheduled reports to
management of change - are available in one integrated package.
And
the Process Alarm Toolkit helps you to ensure that all alarm
settings (trip point, deadband, etc.) are set at their optimal
point (more...). |

Performance Monitoring |
| Maintaining
a few control loops is easy, but if your plant has hundreds
or thousands of control loops, continually determining which
loops need attention can be a major effort. The Control Arts
ControlMonitor package automates this task, delivering
detailed reports on which loops aren't performing.
Just
as important, you can also perform detailed diagnosis so that
you can pinpoint the source of the problem and fix it (more...). |

| Process
Model ID / PID Tuning |
| Most
loops are still controlled with the PID algorithm, and it's
still necessary to ensure that these are tuned properly. The
Control Arts Model ID and PID Tuning package lets
you efficiently obtain dynamic models of the process and quickly
calculate the best PID parameters - all from a few simple
plant tests.
A
host of features allow you to go beyond PID tuning - from
filter design to determining whether advanced control will
be beneficial (more...). |
