Overview
DeltaV Operator Training Simulation (OTS) is an engineered, hands-on, process-specific learning environment designed to up-skill our customers’ operations workforce. DeltaV OTS exposes operators to what they will experience in their actual control room. This enables operations personnel to gain
experience in an off line, non-intrusive environment. Operators will learn DeltaV operating concepts while learning their actual process in preparation to effectively handle incidents or
process upsets.
The ability to practice how to handle potential incidents in a simulation environment is invaluable. The OTS training solution is not only key to preparing operations personnel prior to the start-up of new automation projects. It is an ongoing tool to train future operators, a great refresher tool and a platform for
more advanced training for current operators.
DeltaV™ OTS includes the following key deliverables:
• Self-Guided Custom Curriculum Based on the Customer’s Configuration and actual displays
• DeltaV Training Simulators that include both hardware and software that operate the customer configuration in a simulated environment
• Student Testing that includes realistic failure scenarios that record actual operator responses
Key tangible savings and benefits include:
• Quicker, Smoother Start-Ups
• Reduced Operator Error
• Product Loss Reduction/Elimination
• Improved Product Quality
• Regulatory Violation Reduction/Elimination
• Reduce Incident Reporting
• Operator Acceptance and Endorsement to Change Management
• To discuss OTS and simulation contact us at OTS@EmersonProcess.
