Hi Experts, I want to know how instruments and control is mapped and testing is done in manufacturing and process plants. I usually represent field instruments, junction box, PLCs, MCCs and control panels as equipments. But I am facing problem for mapping loop  because controllers in PLC and Junction boxes are common for multiple loops.

Controller I am mapping as sub-equipment under PLC . But loop number mapping in function location is becoming difficult. Kindly give best way you guys have mapped from experience point of view and domain point of view.

Regards,

Srinivas

Hi,

Give me an example of its structure and its difficulty

Definition - Functional locations are elements of a technical structure (for example, functional units within a system). You create functional locations hierarchically, and can also structure them based on the following criteria:
  • Functional
  • Process-related
  • Spatial

Each functional location is managed independently in the system, so that you can:

  • Manage individual data from a maintenance perspective for the object
  • Perform individual maintenance tasks for the object
  • Keep a record of the maintenance tasks performed for the object
  • Collect and evaluate data over a long period of time for the object
