Enhancing Industrial Automation with PROFINET in the DeltaV PK Controller

PROFINET is an industrial Ethernet communication protocol designed for the exchange of data between controllers and devices in industrial automation networks. It enables seamless and reliable data exchange between the network participants. Emerson’s DeltaV PK Controller utilizes PROFINET to support real-time cyclic data from devices and Process Automation (PA) Profiles for easy configuration and commissioning of PROFINET devices, optimizing process control applications. Through native DeltaV applications, the PK Controller enables improved troubleshooting, device diagnostics, alarming, and process control historization. 'Live' reconfiguration of devices is achieved through partial downloads which is more robust than dynamic reconfiguration.
