The performance of the system enables cost-optimized and process-optimized implementation of measurement and control processes and analyses, extending to comprehensive condition monitoring in the controller.

Connection of the distributed units to a fail-safe FO bus or Ethernet-based bus, and implementation of the MMS (Manufacturing Message Specification) server that offers the services described in the IEC61850 remote substation protocol for energy plants, make the Bachmann automation system the first choice for energy generators. Safe web technologies also enable defined access to the overall system or to individual parts of the plant from the outside. Thus data is accessible at all times for operators and maintenance personnel, so that optimal process control and power generation are ensured.
