Proficy Process Systems provides the control systems engineer with the integrated tools they need to design, implement, document, and maintain a process automation system using batch and continuous control strategies and utilities typically associated with DCS distributed control systems yet at a traditional HMI/PLC solution price structure, openness, and flexibility.

Proficy Process Systems provides a completely integrated system with a common global namespace. What this means to you, the user, is simplified configuration and maintenance. Tags in the system are defined once and then referenced and used commonly throughout the system. There is no need to configure tags in the controller and then in your screens. The global namespace capability of Process Systems can reduce system configuration time by 30%.

Proficy Process Systems is also packed with powerful control features to tackle the toughest control applications. A comprehensive set of over 140 function blocks, including 30 blocks for advanced regulatory control, is provided to tackle most common control requirements. In addition to the standard set of function blocks, Proficy Process Systems provides user defined function blocks that provide you the freedom and flexibility to define exactly the control algorithms you need.

Connectivity to devices and instruments is essential in any control system, and Proficy Process Systems provides this through integrated fieldbus networks including Foundation Fieldbus, ASI, Profibus DP and PA, and HART.

Proficy Process Systems can be easily extended with other products from the Proficy family to add additional powerful capabilities. Process Systems tightly integrates with Proficy Batch to provide outstanding control and achieve batch to batch consistency.
