Redundant systems are offered for critical processes and harsh applications that require maximum operational readiness and system availability. Bristol ControlWave PAC Redundant Systems, from Emerson Process Management, are designed to prevent a single point of failure from shutting down the system. This design delivers a redundant system that provides high availability, reliability and safety. CPU Hot Standby In the event of a failure of the primary CPU, the system will automatically switch to the Hot Standby Backup CPU. All process control and communication functions are automatically switched to the backup. This method offers a high degree of control reliability and system availability at the most economical cost.

Data Backup The standby CPU is automatically updated via Ethernet link to the on-line unit. In addition to real-time data backup, ControlWave also provides backup of all alarm events and the distributed historical database. These functions are all pre-configured, and no control programming is required to implement the redundancy functionality. Controlwave Redundancy Systems include a stainless steel chassis that houses the primary and standby CPUs and Power Supply Modules. The chassis also house the ControlWave CPU and Communications Redundancy Switch Module. The Switch Module allows automatic and manual selection of the primary controller CPU in case of hardware failure, and will additionally switch up to four serial communication ports to the selected primary CPU of the pair. ControlWave I/O Expansion Racks or Remote I/O Modules are used for the process interface.
