AVEVA Partners With ECE Design as North American Reseller of AVEVA Instrumentation

AVEVA Group plc announced that it has partnered with ECE Design as the North American reseller of AVEVA Instrumentation. The latest release of this product, AVEVA Instrumentation 12.0, will now be sold as a stand-alone product through ECE Design and also as part of the AVEVA Integrated Portfolio for both EPC Contractors and Owner Operators.

The AVEVA Instrumentation software suite handles all instrumentation needs on a project, as well as managing instrumentation needs well after the completion of a project. In addition to the ease-of-use data interchange, and agility of the IT infrastructure, this tool requires minimal training hours compared to similar products on the market. The software suite includes three integrated modules:

    - Instrument Engineer manages tasks typically handled during a

      project lifecycle, including instrument index data entry and reports.

      This module also includes process data import/entry, which can be

      linked to user defined datasheets and Microsoft Excel import/export

      functionality.

    - Instrument Designer manages all tasks typically handled by an

      instrument designer including CAD drawing creation, drawing list

      management, updating of revisions and printing of CAD files for loop

      diagrams, termination diagrams and hookups (installation details) with

      bills of materials. This module automates the drafting process and is

      normally only used by a designer.

    - Wiring Manager handles all tasks typically carried out by an

      instrument designer related to detail cable, wiring and termination

      design. This includes definition of equipment terminal arrangements

      (field devices, junction boxes, marshalling cabinet and panel devices

      such as relays, IS barriers & I/O modules), cable creation and

      termination, cross-patch/internal wiring, generation of cable schedules

      and cable, cable gland and cable gland adapter bills of materials and

      creation of cable block diagrams (without requiring CAD).

An important addition to the AVEVA Plant portfolio, AVEVA Instrumentation is a suite of integrated applications for the efficient specification, design and maintenance of all instrumentation and control systems on a project. AVEVA Instrumentation software suite creates and manages instrumentation design data and documentation including instrument datasheets, loop drawings, termination diagrams, hookup drawings, I/O lists, instrument index, cable schedules, bills of materials, and other reports.
