Efficient energy and process data acquisition relieves the burden on energy-intensive companies
Energy-intensive companies are increasingly faced with the task of making their energy consumption transparent in order to reduce costs and meet regulatory requirements. The precise recording and analysis of energy and process data is the key to this: it not only enables the targeted identification of potential savings, but also a sustainable increase in operational efficiency. With the scalable system from Delphin, process and energy data can be combined, recorded, analyzed and visualized in real time - as a basis for economic decisions and an active contribution to climate protection.
What advantages does process and energy data acquisition with Delphin offer you?
- Reduce costs: By precisely recording energy consumption, hidden costs can be identified and targeted savings measures implemented.
- Optimize processes: The combined analysis of process and energy data makes it possible to identify correlations and make your processes more energy-efficient.
- Legally compliant documentation: Energy consumption data can be processed transparently in order to efficiently fulfill requirements from energy audits and ESG reporting.
- Flexible use: Thanks to decentralized, scalable measurement technology, the system can be easily integrated into existing structures and adapted to growing requirements.
- Actively promoting climate protection: Continuous consumption analyses help you avoid wasting energy and reduce your CO₂ emissions in the long term.
- Secure operation: The self-sufficient and fail-safe data acquisition without a PC ensures seamless monitoring even in continuous operation.
It is often necessary to record both process data and energy data simultaneously in order to recognize correlations. Typical areas of application are
- Stationary energy data acquisition in steel and metal production Permanent process and energy monitoring
- in printing and paper production
- Acquisition of quality-relevant measured values and performance data Acquisition of energy data in the power plant
Practical example of process and energy data acquisition
Combined energy and process data acquisition in titanium production
The production of titanium is a particularly energy-intensive process that also places the highest demands on product quality, as titanium is used as a high-purity and cost-intensive material in sensitive application areas such as aerospace and medical technology. In order to precisely analyze and continuously monitor energy consumption throughout the plant, a scalable measuring network with Delphin Message devices system. The performance data is integrated into the Delphin system via a connection to the existing performance measuring devices and recorded synchronously with the relevant process parameters such as temperatures, pressures and flow rates.
This combined data acquisition enables the manufacturer to monitor energy consumption in real time and detect peak loads at an early stage in order to avoid overruns during cost-intensive peak periods. At the same time, the entire production process can be documented and evaluated in detail with regard to the process parameters, which helps to ensure consistently high product quality. In addition, consumption trends can be analyzed, deviations can be identified at an early stage and measures to improve energy efficiency can be derived, thereby optimizing energy use and sustainably reducing production costs. The central visualization and evaluation of the synchronously recorded energy and process data in the Delphin system supports those responsible in making well-founded decisions on process and energy optimization and thus ensuring economical and resource-saving titanium production.
