挑战
在公司位于冈山附近的水岛工厂，强酸中和过程中的 pH 值测量受到严密监控。对于这项重要的测量，工厂仪表和工程部的工程师 Tsutomu Ishikawa 和 Naoto Ogura 对他们使用的 pH 传感器的性能并不满意。
出于这个原因，工厂定期更换传感器，以尽量减少过程中出现故障的机会。但运营成本很高，石川先生和小仓先生需要更好的解决方案。具体来说，他们需要提前知道何时需要清洁、校准或更换 pH 传感器：“我们想了解 pH 传感器上形成的沉积物将如何影响传感器维护和更换的时间。”

关于客户
三菱化学公司 (MCC) 是日本最大的化学品制造商。其产品范围涵盖工业化学品、石化产品、溶剂、甲基丙烯酸甲酯和丙烯腈。中冶亚克力树脂市场占有率全球第一
解决方案
智能传感器管理 (ISM®) 正是提供了这种能力。通过持续监控过程条件、传感器斜率和参考系统阻抗值，ISM pH 传感器可以预测其剩余寿命以及何时应执行校准和清洁。此外，ISM 的预测诊断工具（显示在连接的变送器上）是动态的，因此随着过程和传感器条件的变化，诊断会重新调整。
为了在工厂测试 ISM，在中和设备上安装了两个由 InPro® 4260i 传感器和 M400 变送器组成的 pH 测量系统。梅特勒-托利多解决方案运行良好，另外安装了 ISM pH 系统来监测有机溶剂。

Advanced Elastomer Systems Upgrades Production
In order to maintain its share of the international market for thermoplastic elastomers AES recently expanded its Florida plant by adding a new production line. While the existing lines were operating satisfactorily using a PROVOX distributed control system with traditional analog I/O, AES wanted advanced technology on the new line for greater economy, efficiency, and reliability. AES officials were anxious to get this line into production to meet incoming orders, but two hurricanes slowed construction.

Field Device Asset Management For Chemical Company in China
Chinese chemical subsidiary of multinational corporation serves customers throughout the world. Sales offices and research and technology centers are strategically located to provide rapid response to customer requests. Just two workers were assigned to maintain thousands of intelligent instruments in three production units, so they could do little more than react to device issues as they appeared. This costly maintenance method inevitably led to unexpected downtime when a critical instrument failed. Plant management recognized the need to change from reactive to predictive maintenance for all assets, including instruments and control valves, but help was needed in implementing such a technology-based initiative.
