Bristol® ControlWave® PAC

Process Automation Controller

Bristol® ControlWave® PAC, from Emerson Pro- cess Management, is a highly adaptable, high performance Process Automation Controller with exceptional networking capability to provide a complete Process Automation Management Solu- tion. Designed with a great emphasis on scalability and modularity, ControlWave can be configured to maximize the performance of a wide range of con- trol systems, from small or mid-size applications to large ones. Additionally, due to its small form factor and rugged industrial design, ControlWave offers an outstanding ability to match the requirements of the most demanding process plant and SCADA system environments. Above all, Emerson has developed this innovative controller to provide cost-effective solutions by minimizing the time required for instal- lation and configuration.

Through this new open architecture, ControlWave provides an ideal hybrid union of PLC, RTU and DCS without compromising the unique features and capabilities of each product. Consequently, the ControlWave Process Automation Controller not only introduces the great possibilities of an open architecture for emerging communication standards, but it also provides a simple solution for existing networks. From its conception, ControlWave was in- tended as a very flexible system capable of satisfy- ing the requirements of local, expanded, remote and distributed I/O combinations. It is widely accepted as a scalable platform because it can be used for small applications using a single rack, but it can also be expanded to large applications spanning an entire plant.
