Executive Summary 1

Siemens is rapidly emerging as one of the top process automation players in the worldwide market, particularly in North American.

The focal point for growth for Siemens’ process business is the SIMATIC PCS 7 system which currently has thousands of installations worldwide and is positioned as a fully scalable “DCS”.

Siemens has years of experience in the arenas of both process and discrete control, and its ability to bring both worlds together in a single environment under the TIA (Totally Integrated Automation) and SIMATIC umbrella is unique.



Siemens Makes Process Industries a Strategic Priority 1

Siemens has acquired some companies in recent years (e.g., Moore Process Automation, ORSI, and US Filter) to add specific domain expertise, particularly at the production management and optimization software level.

For the near future, however, Siemens seems to be focusing on growing its process business organically, by adding selected pieces of process expertise to its portfolio.

Despite the declining hardware business trend, Siemens retains the ability to produce a large volume of hardware profitably, thanks to its economies of scale.




Siemens’ overall corporate operating groups are organized within eight business segments:– The Industry business segment is composed of

Automation & Drives (A&D), Industrial Solutions and Services (I&S), Siemens Logistics & Assembly (L&A), and Siemens Building Technologies (SBT).

– The industry expertise for the process market is divided between the I&S (oil & gas, metals, pulp & paper, refining, and water & waste) and A&D (chemicals, pharmaceuticals, food & beverage, glass, automotive, etc.) organizations. I&S and A&D work together through a Process Solutions (PS) group to provide total solutions.

Siemens has a program in place to certify SI partners to form more relationships with third systems integrators (SI).




A&D covers PASs, batch systems, safety systems, field instruments and production management software (CPM).

I&S is for service offerings which cover the entire life cycle of industrial and infrastructure facilities from planning to modernization.




SIMATIC PCS 7 serves as the fulcrum for all of Siemens’ process industry strategy and fulfills the company’s TIA vision of common hardware infrastructure across application domains.– According to Siemens, sales of the SIMATIC PCS 7

platform have consistently exceeded growth targets over the past several years, and the company is currently the number four DCS supplier worldwide.

The Moore acquisition gave siemens its entry into the North American market.

Siemens has also gained access to the Japanese market through a recent partnership with Fuji Electric.



SIMATIC PCS 7 Maps to ARC CPAS Vision 1

SIMATIC PCS 7 maps well to ARC’s Collaborative Process Automation System (CPAS) vision, which calls for PASs to be based on international standards, possess a common control and configuration environment, and have a common information infrastructure.– Based on international and de facto standards ––ISA-

88, ISA-95, IEC 61131, IEC Fieldbus Standard with EDD, PROFIBUS, HART, OPC, XML and Industrial Ethernet

– Single control and I/O platform– Single engineering environment with ES (Engineering

Station)– Single HMI environment with OS (Operator Station)– Siemens claims PCS 7 is a full-scale DCS which

possesses critical requirements.




Support of discrete control, batch control, safety control, plant asset management, and production management in a single environment– Full redundancy, high availability control– Information is presented in context in both engineering

and HMI views– Single control database– Supports online upgrades




PCS 7 system architecture




The PCS 7 system ranges up to over 100,000 I/O.PCS7 Box is for an application of up to 800 I/O points with full standard PCS 7 functions.PCS 7 supports full redundancy.Siemens plans new functions every 18 months for PCS 7.




PCS 7 engineering station (ES)– IEC61131 compliant engineering.– Single database for preconfigured library

blocks/custom blocks, statement list, ladder diagram, and function blocks.

– The Step 7 PLC programming software functions are covered with the addition of SCL, CFC, SFC, safety matrix and ISA-88 plant hierarchy views.




PCS 7 operator station (OS)– Siemens’ common HMI (WinCC) -based environment.– Customized contextual operator view.– SQL-based historian.

PCS 7 control application– PCS 7 supports process, hybrid and discrete applications.– Batch and safety applications are also covered.– For advanced control applications, such as fuzzy, PID tuner a

nd 3rd party applications, are supported.




PCS 7 hardware– The 400 series of automation stations (AS) which is

based on SIMATC S7 PLC (originally from Texas Instrument PLC).

– ET200 is primary I/O and can be remote I/O which can be used in Class 1 div.2 environments.

– Failsafe versions of AS (based on AS414H and AS417) and ET200 are for SIL3 safety solution.




SIMATIC PCS 7 version 6.0 key features:– Enhanced ease of use– Online configuration changes– Increased system capacity– Improved engineering efficiency– 21 CFR Part 11 compliance– Improvements to SIMATIC BATCH– Increased controller performance

Version 6.1 is due in 1st quarter of 2005– New controllers with three times faster performance and

five times more memory at the same price– PCS 7 Box (integrated AS/OS/ES) now supports small batch

applications




Other Version 6.1 features will include:– OS web clients– Integrated plant asset management (PAM) applications– Central archiving server– New line of remote I/O– Multilingual support in Chinese with Japanese planned

for the near future as part of the Fuji Electric alliance. – Further FDA improvements– Additional licensing (including floating, trial, rental, and

enterprise licenses)– Improved security (online virus scan)– Support for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003

(much later than other vendors)



Migration Strategies Fit Legacy and Competitor Systems 1

While SIMATIC PCS 7 is Siemens’ unified control system architecture for the future, the company has made a commitment to support its legacy platforms, such as APACS, Teleperm, PCS OSx, and the Braumat brewing system and Cemat cement plant control system.

Siemens has created a comprehensive, stepwise approach to migration that effectively addresses the needs of its installed base:– Add-on batch & OS HMI– Automated conversion tools/DBA (Data Base

Automation)/engineering libraries– Network gateways– I/O interface– Field termination adapters







Siemens is also developing a solid strategy for migration from many competitor systems to SIMATIC PCS 7:– Bailey INFI-90 systems– Replacement FTAs for Honeywell TDC3000– Additional interfaces for Freelance, PROVOX, TDC

3000, I/A series planned– The first migration solutions for Fuji’s Micrex will be

introduced around the middle of 2005



SIMATIC BATCH-Next Generation Batch for SIMATIC PCS 7

SIMATIC BATCH is the successor to the previous Batch Flexible (customized batch application base).– High scalability & redundancy

• Up to 12 redundant server pairs with up to 32 clients per server for larger applications

– Full integration with SIMATIC PCS 7 DCS• Recipe Editor for avoiding manual population of

recipes• Supports PCS 7 security and logon conventions• Supports FDS ruling 21 CFR Part 11

– Meets ISA-88 (IEC 61512) standard– Integration with SIMATIC IT (Siemens MES offering)



SIMATIC IT Fits ISA-95 Roadmap 1

SIMATIC IT is a componentized production management/MES approach that provides advanced batch functionality and conforms to ISA-95 roadmap.– SIMATIC IT Framework: graphical modeling

environment for overall management of the plant including machines, people, and applications

– SIMATIC IT Components: basic and guaranteed functionality, including order management and material management



SIMATIC IT Fits ISA-95 Roadmap 2



SIMATIC PCS 7 Provides Integrated Safety Solution 1

Siemens approach is “separate yet integrated”.Siemens’ flagship process safety system platform for the future is SIMATIC S7 400F PLC. – TUV-certified, IEC 61131-compliant controllers for up to

SIL 3 applications in a simplex or completely redundant configuration

– Failsafe communications over PROFIBUS via PROFIsafe, PROFIBUS DP and PROFIBUS PA

Advanced analysis provided by Safety Matrix software– Automatic integration of cause and effect logic into

SIMATIC projects
