Optimize your plant performance, enhance safety, and maximize the lifespan of your assets with Emerson’s Plantweb Insight™ Corrosion and Erosion Software Applications. Our Plantweb Insight platform offers two complementary applications: Non-Intrusive Corrosion for continuous wall thickness monitoring using ultrasonic thickness transmitters, and Inline Corrosion for real-time analysis of internal fluid corrosivity. Through an intuitive web-based interface accessible from anywhere, these applications transform complex corrosion and erosion data into actionable insights using pre-built analytics developed from decades of industry expertise. Whether you're looking to implement predictive maintenance strategies, optimize chemical injection programs, or enhance your corrosion management practices, our solutions provide the visibility and intelligence needed to make informed decisions that protect your assets and improve operational efficiency.
Gain a superior understanding of your assets' condition through continuous wall thickness monitoring and advanced analytics. By securely delivering data from Rosemount™ Wireless Corrosion & Erosion transmitters to your desktop, this application enables predictive maintenance strategies and helps optimize plant operations. Key capabilities include real-time wall thickness monitoring, early detection of corrosion events, retirement planning features, and patented Adaptive Cross Correlation technology for best-in-class measurement accuracy.
The Plantweb Insight Inline Corrosion application provides continuous analysis of internal corrosion trends through wireless probe monitoring, delivering actionable insights on fluid corrosivity directly to operators. This application transforms traditional corrosion monitoring by replacing manual data collection with automated, real-time analysis that helps optimize chemical treatment programs and prevent asset damage before it occurs.
Transform complex transmitter data into actionable intelligence through Emerson’s secure, scalable Plantweb Insight software solution designed for industrial asset monitoring. Plantweb Insight delivers consistent, intuitive navigation through a web-based interface accessible anytime, anywhere. It leverages pre-built analytics based on decades of process expertise, allowing for rapid deployment and immediate value creation.
A virtual machine acts as a dedicated computer running within your existing infrastructure, ensuring Plantweb Insight operates reliably and securely. Deployment is straightforward: our VM package contains all necessary components and can be installed on common platforms like VMware or Microsoft Hyper-V. Once deployed, the virtual machine handles processing, storage, and user access management while maintaining separation from other business systems.
Plantweb Insight seamlessly connects with your existing infrastructure through industry-standard protocols. The platform supports OPC UA and Modbus TCP server functionality for sharing data with historians and other business systems. Real-time data from wireless gateways flows into the platform through HART-IP, while a REST API enables custom integrations. This flexibility ensures your corrosion data can be accessed wherever it provides value.
Our subscription-based licensing adapts to your monitoring needs, with flexible options of number of transmitters and durations of 1-5 years. The subscription includes unlimited users, access to frequent updates, and ongoing support. This model eliminates large upfront costs while ensuring your software stays current with the latest features and security updates.
Begin with a focused pilot covering critical assets to demonstrate value quickly. Ensure proper wireless network coverage and gateway placement before expanding. Configure alerts and thresholds based on your specific process conditions and risk tolerance. Train key users on the platform's capabilities and establish regular review processes for monitoring data. Document your asset hierarchy to enable meaningful reporting and analysis.
FAQs
The Plantweb Insight Corrosion Application provides a large amount of data to help you understand the condition of your assets. This includes wall thickness metal loss data obtained from all your Rosemount Corrosion and Erosion Transmitters in real-time, remaining life of each device to help with retirement planning, unlimited historical data, and more.
The Plantweb Insight Inline Corrosion Application provides continuous analysis of corrosion trends obtained from inside of the process to help you gain insights on fluid corrosivity. This includes real-time information on quick corrosivity changes in the process fluid, which helps to identify trends in the corrosion rates, fluid corrosivity levels, electrical resistance (ER) probe expected lifespan, battery status, and more.
Both the Plantweb Insight Non-Intrusive Corrosion Application and the Plantweb Insight Inline Corrosion Application provide a user-friendly interface that displays already engineered values, including a unique heatmap and other easy to interpret charts and graphs for easy visualization to help you make the most informed decisions. Both applications can be viewed at your desk or anywhere within your network, allowing all end users to view outputs simultaneously.
The Plantweb Insight Corrosion Applications are ideal for industries with corrosive environments including oil and gas, chemical processing, refining, power generation, and water treatment facilities where monitoring asset integrity is critical to preventing failures and maintaining operational reliability.
These applications seamlessly integrate with existing plant infrastructure through OPC UA connectivity, Modus, as well as a REST API, allowing them to exchange data with DCS and process historians without requiring significant modifications to current monitoring architecture. This also allows further analyses against process variables stored in other applications.
Plantweb Insight Corrosion Apps incorporate comprehensive security measures including end-to-end encryption, role-based access controls with multi-factor authentication, secure-by-design development following IEC 62443 standards, and support for air-gapped installations in high-security environments to protect both operational data and control systems.
Emerson provides comprehensive global support through our Connected Services for Corrosion & Erosion Monitoring, including remote diagnostics, dedicated corrosion monitoring specialists, and both virtual and in-person training options that can be tailored to specific operational requirements through various service packages.
