Gain the AADvantage

of distributed safety

The automation industry requires solutions offering maximum safety,

maximum availability and maximum affordability. With AADvance, all of
the added benefits of a distributed safety system, such as centralised
control and integrated fault-tolerance, are at your fingertips.

Benefits:
Operate entire plant-wide systems
from a single access point
Communicate between
various fault tolerance levels
Scaleable in size, safety
and availability
SIL 1-3
Failsafe to Fault Tolerant
Reduce ownership costs
From small and stand-alone, to The flexibility and scaleability of the
large and fully distributed systems, AADvance distributed critical control
AADvances high flexibility offers the safety system reduces the need to fit
option of integrating multiple systems an entire system into one area,
on a single distributed network, and allowing you to maximise your space
can, therefore, share and exchange and minimise your ownership costs.
safety-critical information.
AADvance provides added scalability
through its ability to mix single, dual
or triple modules within the same
controller, and by permitting controllers
with different fault-tolerance levels to
communicate on the same network.

of flexibility
End users are responsible for the safe operation of their
processes. However, safety is not the only concern facing
those in the market today.
Benefits:
Widespread, fully-integrated

The need for increased flexibility,
functionality and affordability are
among some of the many additional
challenges that need consideration
when selecting the right safety and
critical control system. AADvance
offers simpler solutions for these
complex challenges.
AADvance offers the facility to
mix fault-tolerance levels within
a controller, and distribute them
across an entire network. This makes
it possible to have fully-integrated,
scaleable solutions for a range of
automation disciplines, helping to
reduce automation capital project
costs and ongoing operation and
maintenance costs.
Whether your application
specifications call for a simple or
a complex safety system, AADvance
allows you to design and implement
your system with the most
cost-effective solution to fit
your system requirements.

requirements.

SIL3 single I/O modules Modules are not required to be redundant in Safety without compromise
order to obtain SIL3, reducing the space required
to build your system.

Rugged build AADvance comes coated and does not require Go anywhere systems
fans to operate. G3 certified, AADvance is
capable of withstanding even the harshest
environments.

Supports all five Help reduce programming time, and help increase Combine plant-wide operations
IEC- approved languages simplicity and readability of your programs by
using the language best-suited to your application.

Online replacement Remove and replace modules without having to Continuous versatile operations
of modules interrupt the system in redundant configurations.

Automatic recognition Automatic recognition of newly-added modules Expand without reducing integrity
of new modules allows the expansion of a system while remaining
online so as to avoid unnecessary system
shutdowns or diminished integrity.

Full diagnostics right I/O modules incorporate full diagnostics including Predictive maintenance
out of the box line monitoring capabilities. No need for extra
programming or engineering.

AADvance toolset Allows the control of remote I/Os from a Centralised operation control
centralised location, even when systems are
distributed over a large area.
