Product Description

For critical process control applications where you can’t afford

interruptions, the DeltaV system offers controller redundancy.

The standby controller contains the same control strategies as

the active controller and the redundancy link transfers control

parameters to the standby controller to ensure it is ready to take

control if needed.

With redundancy enabled, each module will calculate the

required updates for the Standby controller when it executes.

These updates are transferred to the standby controller over

the redundancy link. These additional operations for controller

redundancy will typically reduce your CPU free time by

approximately 10%.

When a fault is detected, the standby controller can take over

without bumping the process control signals. The DeltaV Event

Chronicle stores a record of each switchover and the reason it

occurred (if the reason has been identified).
