Migrating from Bailey

Honeywell makes integrating or migrating to Experion easy. The migration of all Bailey subsystems can be performed seamlessly at your own pace.

• Experion controllers can be added at any time, and will integrate with existing Bailey controllers.
• The user interface is configured using standard Experion configuration tools, yet there is a common interface regardless of whether the data originates from a Bailey DCS or Experion controller.
• The Bailey Network 90 and INFI 90 integration migrates your Bailey data to the Experion system.
• You can replace proprietary Bailey consoles with Web-enabled Experion stations. The Experion user interface reads and displays Bailey function block configurations through Bailey-oriented detailed displays and faceplates as if they were Experion controller function blocks.
• The Experion system permits Bailey data access from any Experion user interface, from high-level applications and other systems through a variety of standard interfaces with minimum configuration.

With goals for increased productivity and decreased maintenance costs, many companies are looking to Honeywell’s Experion® Process Knowledge System (PKS) as a path to the newest technology. Experion is the only process automation system designed to manage your business, processes, and assets in one unique system.  

In order to determine the most efficient and cost-effective migration strategy, Honeywell offers a system assessment of each customer's specific requirements.

The assessment includes:

• Evaluation of automation goals
• An audit of the current system and process
• Recommendations for HMI migration and effective operator displays
• Recommendations for hardware migration and protecting current installation investment
• Personnel training and implementation plans
• Optimization and integration recommendations

The first step in migrating your current system is to call Honeywell for a system assessment. Based on the results of the assessment, we will provide an estimate of the timing and costs involved so you can implement a migration plan that works best for you. We can also provide suggestions on how to fund your migration over time.
