ProcessVue helps rationalise process alarms at West Burton B power station
By implementing ProcessVue’s alarm management software from M.A.C. Solutions at its West Burton B gas-fired power station, EDF Energy can now perform accurate process alarm analysis on its alarm systems and has taken huge steps in rationalizing and reducing alarm loads on operators at the site.
ProcessVue solves two-way remote alarm management challenge on UK-Belgium bi-directional gas pipeline
By implementing ProcessVue’s alarm management software from MAC Solutions at its Bacton and Zeebrugge gas terminals, Interconnector UK (IUK) can now perform accurate alarm analysis across multiple systems and two terminals, providing an accurate picture of the number of alarms that operators have to deal with.
ProcessVue improves alarm management and KPI reporting at biomass Power Station
By implementing new alarm management and KPI reporting software from MAC Solutions, engineers at a UK-based biomass power station are now able to easily and quickly identify KPIs for alarm management trends and to analyse the root causes of plant upsets (i.e. events that lead to a loss of production).
Gas utility company selects ProcessVue alarm management software
A major US-based natural gas distribution utility company is using the ProcessVue alarm management software suite from MAC Solutions to manage alarms and report on process alarms across its operation.
