Product Overview

The Honeywell CV-DSC25K is a high-capacity software enablement license designed to expand the data processing capabilities of the PlantCruise automation environment. This "Points Adder" allows industrial facilities to increase their system capacity by an additional 25,000 SCADA points, providing the necessary overhead for large-scale monitoring and complex control strategies. By integrating this license into an existing PlantCruise or Experion LX framework, operators can consolidate vast amounts of field data—ranging from equipment status indicators to intricate process variables—into a single, unified supervisory interface without the need for additional physical controller hardware.

As a digital solution, the CV-DSC25K is engineered to support the evolution of a facility's automation needs, enabling seamless scalability for plants transitioning toward more data-intensive operations. It ensures that the SCADA base software remains responsive and robust even as the tag count grows, maintaining the high reliability standard expected of Honeywell DCS solutions.

System Requirements and Hardware Parameters

To ensure optimal performance and system stability when managing an expanded database of 25,000 points, the following hardware environment is recommended:

• License Capacity: 25,000 Additional SCADA Points

• Processor Requirement: Xeon 8-Core 2.8GHz or higher

• Memory (RAM): 32GB Minimum (64GB recommended for peak performance)

• Storage: 1TB Solid State Drive (SSD) for high-speed data logging and retrieval

• Network Connectivity: Dual 10Gbps Network Interface Cards (NICs) for redundant high-speed communication

• Software Prerequisites: PlantCruise SCADA Base software must be installed and active

• Performance Impact: Optimized logic maintains a low CPU overhead (approx. 5% per 1,000 points added)

• Shipping Weight: 0.4kg (Physical documentation/media)

• Shipping Dimensions: 12.2 x 10.7 x 3 cm

• Origin: USA

Industrial Applications

The CV-DSC25K is a critical asset for enterprise-level operations requiring extensive data integration across distributed sites:

• Large-Scale Manufacturing Complexes: Centralizing data from multiple production lines, packaging units, and material handling systems into a single SCADA master.

• Oil & Gas Midstream Operations: Managing extensive pipeline networks with thousands of remote telemetry points, valve statuses, and pressure readings.

• Complex Utility Infrastructure: Overseeing regional water distribution or power microgrids that require high-density tagging for real-time load balancing and fault detection.

• Chemical and Pharmaceutical Processing: Supporting high-fidelity data acquisition for batch records and environmental monitoring where thousands of sensor inputs must be tracked simultaneously for regulatory compliance.
