Abstract Information :

Smart Sensors as novel types of easy-to-use tools for PAT do significantly facilitate access to many spectroscopic applications in petrochemical, chemical and refining industries. The user benefits from autonomous and highly available devices, which operate PC-free and in real-time. The integration to a PLC is straight-forward by using standardized and established interfaces. Consequently, Smart Sensors have a significant impact on ensuring efficient, safe production processes, and consistent product quality, which has been the major driving force towards the increasing demand and the application of such devices.

The technological implementation of smart sensors is discussed, and their handling is demonstrated based on tangible application examples from the refinery sector.
