What Is Distributed Control System?(DCS) As the name itself says distributed control system has distributed controls throughout the plant area for handling large complex circuits with difference in geographical locations in industrial processes.
7 Important features of Distributed Control System. To deal with complicated processes: PLC- Programming Logic Controller is used for controlling and monitoring high speed process parameters in a factory automation structure but they cannot use complex structures because of the restriction of the number of input devices. But then Distributed Control System (DCS) is mostly suitable for complex systems where more than one input devices is used for example batch process control. Hence DCS is recommended for complicated management programs with more variety of I/O’s with devoted remotes. These are used in production procedures where developing of several products are in several procedures such as group procedure management.
System redundancy: DCS helps program accessibility when needed by same feature at every stage. It is always good to
