PAS Launches Third-Generation Alarm Management Software

PAS has announced the launch of its next generation suite of Alarm Management software under the brand name AMO-Rt. AMO-Rt is the third generation alarm management solution from PAS. Key features versus traditional products in this area are the real-time performance visualization and optimization of alarm systems leading to superior abnormal situation mitigation and improved plant reliability.

As a third-generation product, AMO-Rt is the industry's most complete alarm management solution. It is the only product to integrate data collection, archive, analysis, real-time dynamic alarm management, alarm shelving, operator interface and more in a single application framework.

The AMO-Rt software provides for a comprehensive alarm management strategy including:
* Automatic Data Collection and Archive - provides long term alarm history
* Alarm Analysis - benchmarks vs. best practices (eg EEMUA)
* Alarm Documentation & Rationalization - documents and reduces alarm loading
* Alarm Shelving - safely deactivates nuisance alarms with management of change
* Alarm Flood Suppression - suppresses alarm floods and highlights most relevant alarms
* State-Based Alarms - dynamically adjusts alarm settings to match plant operations
* Alarm Audit & Enforce - protects alarm settings from improper change
* Alarm Viewer - provides performance visualization and advisory/knowledge support
* Performance Metrics Management - provides visualization vs key metrics

AMO-Rt is a component of PlantState Suite application framework, which also hosts other PAS applications for plant performance enhancement with applications focused from the individual control loop to plant-wide optimization. The common framework reduces life-cycle-cost of ownership for PAS customers.
