Field Instrumentation

Enhancing Accuracy and Real-Time Monitoring Through Smart Field Instrumentation

Client Overview

A large chemical processing plant located in Maharashtra, India, operating 24/7 with hazardous and temperature-sensitive materials. The plant manages complex processes across pressure vessels, pipelines, and mixing chambers. Safety, precision, and real-time visibility were top priorities for this client.

Our Approach

We began with a plant instrumentation audit covering critical measurement points and operator workflow patterns. This included a Time and Motion Study of manual logging and maintenance response times. Based on findings, we digitized all critical measurement points and integrated IoT-enabled monitoring and automation frameworks.

Our strategy focused on:

  • Replacing analog gauges with smart field instruments
  • Enabling wireless data transmission from remote locations
  • Integrating real-time dashboards and alerts
  • Implementing predictive maintenance using sensor data

Challenge

The client relied on outdated analog gauges and manual logging for temperature, pressure, and flow measurements. This led to safety risks, slow response times, and inconsistent data during audits and maintenance.
