Why Traditional PLC&DCS Maintenance Fails — And How Bently Nevada Fixes It
The Hidden Costs of Reactive Maintenance
Reactive maintenance strategies often result in 42% longer downtime due to delayed fault detection. Unplanned repairs in PLC&DCS systems cost plants over $500,000 annually in lost productivity and labor.
Bently Nevada’s Predictive Analytics in Action
The 3500/61 163179-02 module uses six temperature monitoring channels to detect anomalies early. In a 2024 oil refinery case study, this system reduced turbine failures by 67% and saved $1.2M/year.
Case Study: Chemical Plant Optimization
A chemical plant integrated Bently Nevada’s System 1™ software with their DCS. Real-time vibration analytics cut unplanned shutdowns by 55% and extended equipment life by 3+ years.
