CIM/PI AF Project - Background A Convergence of Opportunities New Network Manager EMS Comes with PI Historian Utilizes standards-based CIM model for EMS database configuration Transmission Engineering Interest in Condition-Based Maintenance
Network Manager EMS . . EMS gathering 50,000 points of real-time data PI Server Point data history stored in PI tags, but accessible only by point name Network Manager EMS . field devices EMS gathering 50,000 points of real-time data CIM DE Environment CIM database where equipment and associated real-time data points defined for EMS AF PI product (AF) able to model equipment’s relationships to tags, but product not currently used
Network Manager CIM DE Tool Standard electrical System model based on Common Information Model (CIM) Equipment (devices) Connectivity Measurement relationships to equipment
PI’s AF supports model-based data access Allows one to: Create elements, representing objects making up a system Associate historic data (PI tags) with elements Organize elements into logical groups and set up relationships between elements Define a meta-model for elements (by means of templates) Define calculations, notifications and data retrieval on an element basis Track history of elements and their characteristics
CIM/PI AF Project – Closing the Loop Export CIM model data to PI AF product Create PI equipment / asset model for retrieving historic tag data Create infrastructure for generalized retrieval of historic real-time information on equipment basis (by reference to equipment location in system) on asset basis no matter where asset has been moved in system Generalized retrieval is essential to the creation of applications PI Server AF AF GDA . .
