Combine data for actionable insights with Netilion Analytics
Maintenance managers have a multitude of KPIs to respect including number of suppliers and plant shutdowns. Monitoring and optimizing so many KPIs can be a difficult task, particularly in complex chemical plant operations.
Our expertise in the field
Combined with digital twins of the installed assets, Endress+Hauser Netilion Analytics enables convenient and accurate monitoring of all KPIs remotely and in real time, as well as the extraction of valuable insights for process improvements.
Gain full transparency on the number of assets, manufacturers, obsolete devices and possible successors
Analyze and monitor digital twins both automatically and continuously
Generate live reports including concise analysis of your installed base
When an unexpected error occurs, rapid action is vital to prevent costly downtime. Time can be lost searching through technical documentation for appropriate solutions.
Our expertise in the field
Netilion Health is a digital service that not only identifies and signals errors but also gives instructions on how to solve them.
Such is the competitive nature of the chemical industry; data security is a prime concern for plant operators leveraging IIoT.
Our expertise in the field
The Endress+Hauser IIoT offering is certified end to end for maximum data security. From the edge device to the customer data in the cloud, only leading safety mechanisms are employed:
Encrypt your data with long key codes (HTTPS / TLS with SHA-256)
Cooperate with certified data centers (e.g. ISO 27001)
Rely on certification from an independent authority, licensed by “EuroCloud” with a 4-star rating
We help customers get more insights into their key business processes via a set of services that translate data into valuable information. Together, they build our Netilion IIoT ecosystem.
In line with Namur Open Architecture (NOA), our IIoT network creates a parallel channel that transfers data directly into the cloud – no need to touch the traditional plant architecture.
