- Case Study: A Middle Eastern oil refinery reduced downtime by 30% after deploying Emerson 1C31116G05 for real-time pipeline pressure monitoring.
Applications and Use Cases
Primary Industries:
- Oil & Gas (wellhead monitoring, refinery process control)
- Power Generation (turbine control, grid stability)
- Water/Wastewater (pump station automation, chemical dosing)
- Pharmaceuticals (batch process validation)
Application Example:
In a Chinese thermal power plant, Emerson 1C31116G05 was integrated to manage boiler temperature and feedwater flow. The module’s high-speed analog inputs enabled precise adjustments, improving combustion efficiency by 12% and reducing emissions.
Competitive Differentiation
Compared to generic I/O modules, Emerson 1C31116G05 offers:
- Higher Channel Density: 36 I/O points in a single unit vs. 24–28 points in similar modules.
- Extended Communication Range: 2 km vs. typical 1 km limits.
- Superior Signal Accuracy: ±0.1% accuracy for analog inputs, outperforming industry averages (±0.25%).
