Process Automation Controller
Bristol® ControlWave® PAC, from Emerson Pro-
cess Management, is a highly adaptable, high
performance Process Automation Controller with
exceptional networking capability to provide a
complete Process Automation Management Solu-
tion. Designed with a great emphasis on scalability
and modularity, ControlWave can be congured to
maximize the performance of a wide range of con-
trol systems, from small or mid-size applications to
large ones. Additionally, due to its small form factor
and rugged industrial design, ControlWave offers an
outstanding ability to match the requirements of the
most demanding process plant and SCADA system
environments. Above all, Emerson has developed
this innovative controller to provide cost-effective
solutions by minimizing the time required for instal-
lation and conguration.
Through this new open architecture, ControlWave
provides an ideal hybrid union of PLC, RTU and
DCS without compromising the unique features
and capabilities of each product. Consequently, the
ControlWave Process Automation Controller not
only introduces the great possibilities of an open
architecture for emerging communication standards,
but it also provides a simple solution for existing
networks. From its conception, ControlWave was in-
tended as a very exible system capable of satisfy-
ing the requirements of local, expanded, remote and
distributed I/O combinations. It is widely accepted
as a scalable platform because it can be used for
small applications using a single rack, but it can
also be expanded to large applications spanning an
entire plant.
