Product Overview

The Honeywell CV-RSC05K is a high-availability software expansion license specifically designed for the PlantCruise by Experion SCADA platform. This module functions as a redundancy adder, enabling synchronized backup for 5,000 SCADA points within a distributed control environment. It is engineered for industrial facilities that require zero-single-point-of-failure architectures, ensuring that monitoring and supervisory control remain active even if the primary server encounters a hardware or software fault.

By implementing the CV-RSC05K, the Experion LX system can maintain high-speed data acquisition and real-time visualization across an additional 5,000 tags with automated failover capabilities. This license is essential for mission-critical applications where process visibility is synonymous with operational safety, providing the necessary overhead for redundant server communication and database mirroring.

Key Technical Characteristics

• Rapid Failover Performance: Features a high-speed switchover mechanism with a typical failover time of less than 300 milliseconds, ensuring nearly instantaneous recovery and continuous data flow.

• Expanded Supervisory Capacity: Increases the redundant point count by 5,000 tags, allowing for significant system scaling in large-scale industrial infrastructures.

• Synchronized Data Traffic: Optimized for redundant server environments, introducing approximately +4Mbps of dedicated synchronization traffic to maintain identical databases between primary and backup nodes.

• Historization Support: Optimized for use with 1TB SSD storage in RAID-10 configurations, ensuring that historical process data is preserved and synchronized across the redundant pair.

• Resource Optimization: Designed to function within the Experion LX framework, leveraging 64GB recommended RAM (32GB minimum) to handle complex polling and alarm management.

• High-Availability Architecture: Eliminates downtime during maintenance or unplanned outages by allowing the secondary server to take full control of the SCADA interface without operator intervention.

• Seamless Scalability: Acts as a modular "adder," allowing plants to grow their SCADA point count incrementally while maintaining a unified, redundant control environment.
