INTUNE+
Process Navigator
Power Generation Management’s
New Tool for
Continuous Improvement
As every power plant manager and engineer knows, power station performance
and efficiency are directly related to control system performance.
For example, the control of superheat steam temperature is one of many
opportunities for optimization that can help maximize the mega-wattage
on each unit of a plant.
Why not use a professional maintenance team
to monitor your control loops 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, without
tying up any of your valuable staff? ControlSoft's
INTUNE+ Process Navigator provides a foundation for process
control monitoring and predictive maintenance programs.
With a host of
evaluation indices and diagnostics, INTUNE allows power industry managers
and their teams to continuously evaluate control
loop performance and pinpoint degradation the moment it occurs—not
later when degradation affects other parts of the process or trips a
line!
By keeping superheat steam temperature loops in check through a
customized process control monitoring scheme, power stations can reap
the benefits of a more efficient process:
- Minimize Fuel-Wasting Oscillations
- Reduce Or Eliminate Overshoot
- Increase Automation Uptime
- Minimize Pipe Corrosion And Fouling

Process Navigator is a customized service for improving a plant’s
control system performance and establishing a methodology for maintaining
the optimal performance for the long term.
Beginning with the implementation of INTUNE+ software to monitor and
report on the performance of the target control loops, the Process
Navigator package includes evaluation
of web-based reports on the performance of
loop controllers and custom KPIs.
Among its most valuable functions is the diagnosis
of process faults and performance degradation using ControlSoft expertise in providing
cause-and-effect analysis for process faults.
Process Navigator recommends prioritized actions, documents the effectiveness of tuning and improvements, and identifies early
indicators of eventual
equipment failure.
Process Navigator gives you actionable recommendations and
advises you on instrumentation changes and additions. It analyzes
the expected return on investment for new improvement projects.
These and the many other functions of Process Navigator enable
plant managers to focus their efforts where they will have the greatest
payback.
Process Navigator can help you
- Increase Unit Reliability
- Increase Condensor Efficiency
- Reduce NOx Emissions
- Improve Control Of Superheat Temperature
- Reduce The Number Of Trips
