About This Document

In this assignment, we will discuss the five major factors that influence the selection of a distributed control system and the difference between Honeywell TDC 2000 and TDC 3000. A distributed control system is a computerized control system for a process with many control loops that uses autonomous controllers scattered throughout the system rather than central operator supervision and management.

1.Five Major factors:The factors which are responsible for making the choice of distributed control system are as follows:FactorsDescriptionSize of the process“The requirement of input and output points for the process” (Topp. 2015). The DCS is suitable for the larger plants. They can be easily managed and upgraded because they depend on one database globally.Modification plans and expansionsThe DCS involves central hub for managing the processes for maintenance and upgrading. Need of integrationsControllers are used for bringing configuration changes in the processesFunctionalityManagement execution system, integration, asset management, advance control High availabilityThe redundancy option is provided by the DCS environment which is cost effective. 2.Difference between Honeywell TDC 2000 and TDC 3000ParticularsTDC 2000TDC 3000What is it?It is used for technology refresh solutions, upgrading solution, and intellectual property upgrading solutionIt is used for technology refresh solutions, upgrading solution, intellectual propertyupgrading solution, and software upgradingHow does it work?It works by creating voltage regulatory cardsDevices are upgraded to controllersDatabase is converted to TPN environmentIt works by upgrading kits of XPM controllersUpgrading of LM with Master logicConversion solutions are used for database configuration
