SPPA-T3000 system Overview

SPPA-T3000 SYSTEM OVERVIEW

For years, control system vendors have continuously deployed new technologies to improve power generation capabilities. To address the increasing demand for real-time data, open- and standard-based components were integrated into proprietary control systems; for example:  

• Field buses 

• Open interfaces for data exchange between the enterprise level and production processes 

• Open databases to name just a few. 

As a result of these integration efforts, DCS systems have grown into very complex structures, which are known to be difficult to maintain. Furthermore, the proliferation of multiple interfaces, parts, operating systems and the support tools have led to compromising availability and increasing obsolescence concerns.

Siemens has taken an innovative approach: the vision of free flow of real-time data, without the need to integrate any internal interfaces into proprietary software architectures.  

Driven by this vision, and leveraging our strengths and experience in power generation, we have developed the first truly Component Based Control System in the world - SPPA-T3000. 

All components are designed so that SPPA-T3000 easily performs all functions of the power plant process, including integration of third party interfaces and seamless interface to web-based applications 

SPPA-T3000 not only masters the requirements of traditional power plant control tasks, but also provides the real-time data platform needed for improving your power generation business processes. SPPA-T3000 achieves this without the disadvantages of classical control systems. It is designed using a component-based approach which results in a software solution instead of a collection of "forced to fit" pieces. 

SPPA-T3000 provides a powerful application environment that enables you to tailor solutions to your specific enterprise needs. This includes the ability to coordinate and manage each and every aspect of your business processes in order to achieve operational excellence. SPPA-T3000 will provide you with substantial competitive advantages for engineering, startup and operation, as well as the administration and maintenance needed for your business.
